6.90 mm solid double-margin drill
The M.A. Ford Cyclone Xd 5X is a solid carbide drill built for high-performance drilling in demanding materials. Its double-margin design improves hole straightness and surface finish during deep-hole operations. This tool suits CNC machinists and production shops that require consistent accuracy at 5× diameter depth. It arrives new and ready for immediate use in rigid setups.
5× diameter drilling capability
The defining specification is the 5X length-to-diameter ratio, which allows holes up to five times the 6.90 mm diameter in a single pass. This reduces cycle time by eliminating peck-drilling steps on compatible machines. Shops needing shorter or longer reach should select a different series, as this geometry is fixed for 5X performance.
Sustained load behaviour
Under continuous cutting the double margins stabilise the drill, reducing vibration and margin wear over long production runs. The solid carbide construction maintains stiffness at elevated temperatures, preserving hole size and roundness. Operators should verify coolant delivery and spindle rigidity to match the tool’s design envelope.

Questions about this item
What does the 5X in Cyclone Xd 5X mean for drilling depth on this 6.90 mm bit?
The 5X indicates a flute length about five times the diameter, allowing deeper holes per pass with the 6.90 mm drill.
What shank interface does the CXDSR 0690AP use and what does it limit?
It uses a standard straight shank that fits common drill chucks, limiting use to machines with a matching chuck capacity.
What physical clearance does the 6.90 mm solid double-margin body need to fit?
The 6.90 mm diameter requires a hole or guide at least that wide, and the solid carbide body needs rigid clamping to prevent vibration.
