Cyclone Xd 8X drill for production drilling
The M.A. Ford Cyclone Xd 8X is a coolant-fed double-margin drill built for high-efficiency production drilling. Its 9.90 mm diameter suits precise holemaking in demanding materials. The tool targets machinists and shops that need consistent performance in deep-hole applications.
Coolant-fed design manages heat and chip evacuation
Internal coolant delivery directs fluid to the cutting zone, controlling thermal load during extended cycles. Double margins stabilise the drill in the hole, reducing vibration and improving surface finish. This geometry supports steady power draw and lower audible noise in normal use.
Double-margin geometry improves hole quality
The four-land configuration guides the drill straighter, reducing walk and improving roundness without extra bushings. Coolant-fed operation eliminates the need for external flood systems in many setups. California Proposition 65 notices apply to this product.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 9.90 mm Cyclone Xd 8X coolant-fed drill in my CNC spindle and what step is often missed?
Mount the shank securely in a hydraulic or shrink-fit holder, then connect the coolant supply to the through-tool port; the step most often missed is verifying that the coolant pressure meets the minimum required for the double-margin design to evacuate chips effectively.
What maintenance or replacement will the 9.90 mm double-margin drill need during its service life?
Inspect the cutting edges and both margins after each job; regrind the point geometry when wear reaches the margin land, and replace the drill once the diameter falls below the 9.90 mm nominal size or if margin damage cannot be restored by regrinding.
What is the first limit that appears when running the 9.90 mm Cyclone Xd 8X drill under sustained high-speed drilling?
The first limit is typically thermal — margin temperatures rise until coolant can no longer dissipate heat fast enough, causing accelerated margin wear and potential workpiece damage if feed and speed are not reduced.
