4.00 mm Coolant-Fed Double Margin Drill
The M.A. Ford Cyclone Xd 8X is a solid-carbide drill designed for high-performance drilling in demanding materials. Its coolant-fed design delivers lubricant directly to the cutting zone for efficient chip evacuation and thermal control. The double-margin geometry improves hole straightness and surface finish during deep-hole operations. This tool targets professional machinists and CNC operators requiring precision and extended tool life.
Suited for deep-hole drilling in tough alloys
Shops running high-volume production with through-coolant capability will benefit from the 8X diameter-to-length ratio and enhanced stability. The double margins support the drill throughout the cut, reducing wander in cross-holes or angled entries. Buyers without through-spindle coolant systems or those drilling only shallow holes in soft materials will not utilise the design advantages. The specialised geometry also adds cost unnecessary for general-purpose applications.
4.00 mm diameter with 8X depth capability
The drill comfortably handles holes up to eight times its diameter in steels, stainless steels and high-temperature alloys when proper coolant pressure is maintained. Chip evacuation remains consistent through the full depth thanks to the internal coolant channel and polished flutes. In materials requiring peck cycles or where coolant pressure is insufficient, the tool may experience chip packing or premature wear. The 4.00 mm size fixes the maximum hole diameter for this specific tool.

Questions about this item
What machine spindle interface does the 4.00 mm Cyclone Xd drill require for coolant-fed operation?
The drill needs a machine spindle that supports through-coolant delivery and accepts a 4.00 mm shank with double-margin guidance.
Can the 8X drill depth be used in a holder designed for shorter 3X or 5X tools?
The 8X length extends further than standard 3X or 5X holders, so the tool holder and machine envelope must accommodate the longer flute and overall length.
How can I verify the double margins are guiding correctly during the first test hole?
Check for a straight, round hole at full 8X depth with consistent diameter and no wandering, which confirms both margins are engaged.
