Drill for aluminium work
The M.A. Ford Twister Al 5X 3 Flute Drill 10.60mm 22941730 is a cutting tool designed for high-performance drilling in aluminium and similar non-ferrous materials. Its three-flute geometry and specialised coating promote efficient chip evacuation and hole quality. Machinists and fabricators working with soft metals will find it suited to production and maintenance tasks.
Check machine and holding
Verify that your machine spindle accommodates the drill shank and provides sufficient rigidity for the 10.60mm diameter. Confirm the workpiece clamping is secure to prevent movement during the cut. Review the California Proposition 65 notices supplied with the product regarding chemical exposure before use.
Heat and power in use
The tool geometry helps manage heat generation during aluminium drilling, reducing the tendency for built-up edge. Consistent feed rates and appropriate coolant further control temperature and cutting forces. Power draw on the machine will vary with speed, feed and material condition.

Questions about this item
Does the Twister Al 5X 3 Flute Drill 22941730 come with any accessories or only the bit?
The product is supplied as the drill bit only; no additional accessories are included in the packaging.
How do I decide between the 10.60 mm size and other diameters in the Twister Al range?
Choose the 10.60 mm version when your hole specification calls for that exact diameter; other sizes in the range correspond to different hole requirements.
What does the 5X designation mean for drilling performance in aluminium?
The 5X marking indicates a flute length five times the 10.60 mm diameter, giving deeper chip clearance for aluminium work.
