Cyclone XD 8X Drill for Deep Holes
The M.A. Ford Cyclone XD is a coolant-fed double-margin drill built for 6.50 mm diameter holes at an 8× diameter-to-depth ratio. It targets machine shops and production cells that need straight, accurate deep holes in tough materials without peck cycles.
Sustained Load Behaviour
Through-tool coolant delivery flushes chips continuously while the double-margin design maintains alignment during long cuts. This combination reduces wandering and heat buildup so the drill holds size and finish from entry to full depth in a single pass.
Upgrade From Conventional Drills
It replaces standard twist drills and gun drills when hole depth exceeds typical 3× to 5× capacity and secondary operations must be eliminated. The jump is justified when scrap from drill walk or reaming steps outweighs the higher tool cost.

Questions about this item
How much heat does the 6.50 mm Cyclone XD 8X drill generate during continuous high-speed drilling?
The double-margin design improves chip evacuation and reduces friction, so the 6.50 mm drill runs cooler than single-margin drills during extended cuts.
What machine and coolant setup are required to run this 6.50 mm coolant-fed drill?
You need a CNC or milling machine with through-spindle coolant capability and a holder that accepts a 6.50 mm shank to supply coolant through the drill.
Will the 6.50 mm Cyclone XD 8X fit in the same tool holders as my older 6.50 mm twist drills?
Yes, the 6.50 mm diameter matches standard holders, but the coolant-fed shank requires a through-coolant collet or holder to function properly.
