M.A. Ford Cyclone Xd 8X Drill 8.40mm
The M.A. Ford Cyclone Xd 8X is a coolant-fed double margin drill with an 8.40mm cutting diameter. It is designed for high-performance drilling in demanding industrial applications where precision and tool life are critical. Professional machinists and manufacturing engineers use this tool for deep-hole drilling operations requiring consistent accuracy.
Check machine coolant system
Verify that your machine spindle and tool holder can accommodate a coolant-fed drill with through-spindle coolant delivery. Ensure the coolant pressure and flow rate available on your equipment meet the operational requirements for an 8X diameter-to-depth ratio tool. Confirm the workpiece material and fixturing are suitable for the cutting forces generated by this geometry.
Replaces standard drills for deep-hole precision
This drill upgrades from conventional twist drills or single-margin tools when hole straightness, surface finish, and diameter tolerance must be held over greater depths. The jump is worth it when coolant-fed capability reduces cycle time and eliminates peck drilling cycles in materials that challenge standard tooling. It is not for buyers who need a general-purpose drill for shallow holes or intermittent use.

Questions about this item
Does the 8.40 mm Cyclone Xd drill come with coolant fittings or do I need to order them separately?
The drill is a coolant-fed tool body only; coolant supply fittings, tubing and filtration are not included and must be sourced to match your machine's coolant system.
The listing shows a single 8.40 mm diameter — are other sizes available under the same CXDCLM part family?
CXDCLM0840AP is the 8.40 mm variant; other diameters carry different part numbers in the Cyclone Xd 8X series.
What does the 8X designation mean for hole depth when the drill is running in a CNC with through-spindle coolant?
8X indicates the flute length allows drilling up to eight times the 8.40 mm diameter in a single pass when coolant pressure and workpiece rigidity are adequate.
