- Double margin construction improves hole straightness and surface finish
- 20 mm diameter suits precise small-hole applications
- New condition ensures full factory performance from first use
Precision Drilling Tool
The M.A. Ford Cyclone XD is a coolant-fed double margin drill with an 8X diameter-to-depth ratio and a 3.20 mm cutting diameter. It is manufactured for high-precision holemaking in demanding materials where chip evacuation and hole straightness are critical. This new cutting tool targets machinists and engineers running CNC operations that require consistent performance at depth.
Suited For Deep-Hole Accuracy
This drill suits production environments needing reliable coolant delivery through the tool to the cutting zone for extended reach applications. The double margin design supports hole quality and alignment in difficult alloys. It is not intended for hand-held use, shallow-hole spotting, or operations lacking through-spindle coolant capability. Buyers needing larger diameters or different length ratios must select alternative tooling.
Machine Installation Requirements
Installation requires a CNC machine equipped with through-spindle coolant delivery and a compatible tool holder for the drill shank. Setup demands precise runout control to prevent premature margin wear or breakage at 8X depth. Common issues include insufficient coolant pressure causing chip packing, incorrect speed and feed parameters for the workpiece material, and holder runout exceeding the tool tolerance.

Questions about this item
What machine spindle and coolant system are required to run this 3.20 mm drill?
It needs a CNC spindle that accepts a 3.20 mm shank and a through-coolant supply capable of feeding fluid down the drill’s internal channels.
Can this 8X drill replace a standard 3.20 mm twist drill in the same holder?
Yes, the 3.20 mm shank fits the same collet, but the longer 8X flute length and double-margin design require deeper clearance and steady coolant flow.
How do I confirm the coolant-fed drill is delivering fluid correctly after installation?
Start the spindle at low speed with coolant on; a steady stream should exit the tip, and the workpiece should show consistent wet chips along the full hole depth.
