Drill size and reach
The M.A. Ford Cyclone Xd drill has a 25/64 inch diameter and a 9.92 millimetre metric equivalent. It is built for production drilling where coolant-fed operation and double-margin guidance keep holes straight at depth. Machinists running CNC centres or dedicated drill units use it when hole quality and tool life matter more than a standard twist drill can deliver.
Stepping up from standard drills
Conventional twist drills without through-coolant or double margins tend to wander and overheat in deep holes, forcing frequent peck cycles and early replacement. The jump is worth it when you are drilling 8x diameter depths in tough alloys and need consistent size, finish and tool life without manual intervention.
Build fit and clearance
The shank fits standard tool holders used in CNC machining centres and rigid drill presses. Through-coolant capability requires a machine spindle and holder that deliver fluid to the drill point. The double-margin design reduces the need for secondary reaming operations, freeing cycle time and tool slots for other work.

Questions about this item
What shank diameter fits the 25/64 inch 9.92 mm drill body?
The drill has a 25/64 inch (9.92 mm) cutting diameter; match the holder bore to that shank size for a secure grip.
How do I start the coolant-fed 8×D drill without walking?
Spot or pilot drill first, then enter at low feed with coolant on; the double-margin design stabilises the long 8×D body once engaged.
When should the double margins be reground?
Regrind when margin wear rounds the lands or hole size drifts; the 8×D length makes run-out critical, so inspect margins at each tool change.
