Cyclone Xd 8X coolant-fed drill
The M.A. Ford Cyclone Xd 8X is a coolant-fed double-margin drill built for high-efficiency hole-making in production environments. It targets machinists and tooling engineers who need consistent chip evacuation and hole straightness when running deep drilling cycles.
Build integration and clearance
Coolant-fed operation requires a machine spindle and holder capable of delivering through-tool fluid at pressure, freeing the operator from external coolant aiming. The double-margin design supports the workpiece throughout the cut, reducing the need for secondary finishing passes in many materials.
Thermal and power characteristics
Through-coolant delivery manages heat at the cutting interface, helping maintain edge life and dimensional stability during extended cycles. Efficient chip removal lowers cutting resistance, which can reduce spindle load and power draw compared with non-coolant-fed alternatives.
Highlights
- Coolant-fed design clears chips efficiently
- Double margins improve hole straightness
- 8x diameter capability reaches deeper holes
- 5/8 inch cutting diameter suits large bores
- California Prop 65 warning informs safe handling

Questions about this item
How deep can the 8X diameter design drill before chip evacuation becomes the limiting factor?
The 8X diameter ratio allows drilling up to eight times the 5/8 inch diameter in a single pass, so chip evacuation typically limits depth around five inches.
Does the double-margin design reduce heat buildup during continuous CNC cycles?
Yes, the double-margin geometry improves hole guidance and distributes cutting forces, which lowers friction and heat during extended production runs.
What coolant pressure and filtration does the through-tool coolant channel require?
The internal coolant passage works with standard CNC flood or high-pressure systems; a 25-micron filter prevents clogging of the 5/8 inch drill's feed holes.
