Precision Coolant Drill
The M.A. Ford HPDCR 1180A Twister HPD is a solid-carbide drill with through-coolant capability, designed for high-performance drilling in demanding materials. Its 11.80 mm diameter suits production machining where consistent hole quality and extended tool life are critical. The 5×D length provides reach for deeper holes without pecking cycles.
CNC Machinists and Production Shops
This tool targets CNC operators running rigid machines with high-pressure coolant systems who need reliable performance in steel, stainless steel or high-temperature alloys. It is not suited for hand-held drilling, low-pressure coolant setups or general-purpose maintenance work where the geometry and cost are excessive.
11.80 mm Diameter
The single specification that determines fit is the 11.80 mm cutting diameter; the hole you need to produce must match this size exactly. The 5×D flute length and through-coolant design support the application, but the diameter is the non-negotiable filter for selection.

Questions about this item
What machine spindle or holder accepts the 11.80 mm shank of this coolant drill?
The drill has an 11.80 mm cylindrical shank designed for standard hydraulic, shrink-fit or collet holders that grip that exact diameter.
How is the coolant feed connected and what step is often missed?
Connect the machine’s through-spindle coolant supply to the drill’s internal coolant hole; the step often missed is verifying the coolant filter is clean so pressure reaches the cutting edges.
When should the 11.80 mm Twister HPD drill be replaced or reconditioned?
Replace or send for regrinding when flank wear reaches the manufacturer’s limit, when the coolant hole becomes blocked, or when hole diameter drifts outside tolerance.
