14.50 mm coolant-fed drill
The M.A. Ford Cyclone XD 8X is a double-margin drill designed for production drilling where through-tool coolant delivery is required. Its 14.50 mm diameter suits applications that demand precise hole size and straightness in a single pass. Machinists working with CNC equipment and rigid setups will find it matches high-performance drilling cycles. It is not intended for hand-held use or machines without through-spindle coolant capability.
8× diameter depth capability
The drill reaches 8× diameter depth, giving ample headroom for deep-hole work in steels and cast irons where chip evacuation is critical. Coolant fed directly to the cutting zone extends tool life and maintains diameter consistency at depth. In materials that generate long stringy chips or where Peck cycles are impractical, the geometry provides reliable performance. It runs out in setups lacking sufficient coolant pressure or where workpiece rigidity cannot support the length-to-diameter ratio.
Double-margin stability in CNC builds
Double margins guide the drill through the hole, reducing wander and improving finish without a separate reaming operation. This frees up a tool station and shortens cycle time in multi-operation programmes. The shank fits standard toolholders for 14.50 mm drills; no special adapters are needed. Builds without through-coolant spindle or high-pressure pump systems cannot exploit the design.

Questions about this item
Will the 14.50 mm drill fit the tool holders I already use for smaller Cyclone drills?
The 14.50 mm diameter matches the shank size of other Cyclone XD 8X drills, so it fits the same coolant-fed holders and collets you already own.
How can I confirm the coolant-fed double-margin design is working once I start cutting?
Steady coolant flow through the two margin lands and consistent chip evacuation show the internal passages are clear and the drill is running as intended.
Does the box include the CXDCLM1450AP drill only, or are collets and coolant fittings supplied as well?
Only the 14.50 mm Cyclone XD 8X drill is included; compatible collets, holders and coolant fittings must be purchased separately.
