9.8 mm Cyclone XD drill
The M.A. Ford Cyclone XD is an 8X coolant-fed double-margin drill with a 9.8 mm cutting diameter. It is engineered for high-performance drilling in demanding materials where through-tool coolant delivery and guided margins improve hole quality and tool life.
Installation and common issues
The shank fits standard holders for this diameter, so setup follows normal toolholder tightening procedure. Coolant must be connected and filtered to prevent blockage in the internal channels. Double margins require precise run-out control; excessive holder wear or misalignment accelerates margin wear and degrades finish.
Suited for high-volume production, not one-off jobs
This tool suits production environments that can supply consistent through-spindle coolant and maintain rigid holder condition. Shops without coolant capability or those drilling only occasional holes will not realise the design advantages and should consider conventional solid drills instead.

Questions about this item
How do I verify the 9.8 mm drill is cutting correctly after setup?
Check that coolant flows through the fed channels, the double margins run true without wobble, and hole diameter stays within tolerance at the 8X depth rating.
What comes with the CXDCL3858AP drill and what must I supply?
The drill body is included; you must provide compatible coolant supply, tool holder, and workpiece clamping.
Which Cyclone XD version matches a 9.8 mm hole requirement?
Choose the CXDCL3858AP model — its 9.8 mm diameter and 8X coolant-fed design are built for that size.
