- CXDCL1562AP part number ensures correct re-order
- California Proposition 65 warning lists cancer and reproductive-harm chemicals
Product Identity
The M.A. Ford Cyclone Xd drill is a coolant-fed, double-margin cutting tool manufactured to a 5/32 inch (3.97 mm) diameter. It is engineered for high-performance drilling in demanding industrial applications where precision and hole quality are critical.
Suitability
This drill suits machinists and facilities running CNC equipment with through-spindle coolant capability who need the stability of double margins for deep or difficult holes. Operations without high-pressure coolant systems or those requiring standard twist drills for general-purpose work should evaluate alternative tooling.
Decisive Specification
The 8X diameter-to-length ratio defines the drilling depth reach of this specific tool, determining whether it matches the required hole depth for the intended workpiece.

Questions about this item
How often should the 5/32 inch 3.97mm double-margin drill be inspected for margin wear?
Inspect the cutting margins after each shift; replace the drill once the double-margin lands show visible rounding or the coolant-hole exits are eroded.
What limits continuous drilling depth with the 8X coolant-fed design?
The 8X diameter-to-length ratio sets the practical depth limit; chip evacuation and coolant pressure drop become the governing factors beyond that ratio.
How much heat builds up in the shank during an all-day production run?
Internal coolant flow through the 1562-style channels carries heat directly from the cutting zone, keeping shank temperature low enough for continuous operation without forced pauses.
