Drill size and design
The M.A. Ford Cyclone Xd is a coolant-fed double-margin drill with an 11/32 inch diameter, also stated as 8.73 mm. It is built for high-efficiency drilling in demanding production environments.
Machine and coolant readiness
Verify that your equipment can deliver through-spindle coolant at the pressure and flow this tool requires. Confirm the holder and spindle interface match the drill shank before ordering.
Replaces standard drills in deep-hole work
This tool upgrades from conventional twist drills when hole depth reaches eight times diameter and chip evacuation becomes critical. The jump is worth it when cycle time and hole quality outweigh the added coolant-system complexity.

Questions about this item
Does the Cyclone Xd 8X drill include coolant fittings or do I need to buy them separately?
The drill body is supplied alone; coolant delivery fittings and any required adapters must be purchased separately.
When should I choose the 11/32 inch size over the 8.73 mm size for this drill?
Select 11/32 inch for imperial-tool setups and 8.73 mm for metric-tool setups; both refer to the same cutting diameter.
What does the 8X designation mean for hole depth when using this drill in a CNC machine?
The 8X rating indicates a maximum drilling depth of eight times the 11/32 inch (8.73 mm) diameter in a single pass with coolant.
