What this drill is
The M.A. Ford Cyclone XD is an 8.80 mm solid-carbide drill with internal coolant delivery and a double-margin design. It targets machine shops that need accurate deep holes in tough alloys. The 8X diameter-to-length ratio lets it reach further than standard jobber drills without pecking.
Who it suits and who it does not
It suits CNC operators drilling stainless steel, titanium or high-temperature alloys where chip evacuation and hole straightness matter. It does not suit hand-held drilling, work in soft plastics or wood, or any application where flood coolant cannot be used. Buyers needing larger diameters or longer reach must select a different tool.
Installing and common issues
The drill fits standard ER collets or hydraulic holders that accept an 8.80 mm shank; no special adaptor is required. The most common issue is insufficient coolant pressure, which lets chips pack in the flutes and causes premature wear or breakage. Incorrect feed rates on entry and exit also reduce tool life.

Questions about this item
What machine spindle and coolant system are needed to run the 8.80 mm Cyclone XD 8X drill?
The drill requires a machine spindle that accepts an 8.80 mm shank and a through-spindle coolant supply capable of delivering fluid to the drill's internal coolant channels.
Can the 8.80 mm Cyclone XD 8X drill be used in a holder or setup designed for smaller diameter drills?
No, the 8.80 mm diameter requires a tool holder and spindle bore sized specifically for 8.80 mm shanks; smaller holders will not accommodate this drill.
How can I confirm the 8.80 mm Cyclone XD 8X drill is cutting correctly after installation?
Verify that coolant flows steadily from the drill's coolant holes during operation and check that the drilled holes meet the required diameter tolerance and surface finish for 8.80 mm.
