Twister Al 5X 3 Flute Drill
The M.A. Ford Twister Al 5X is a three-flute drill designed for aluminium and similar non-ferrous materials. It suits machinists and fabricators who need reliable chip evacuation in soft alloys.
Capacity and headroom with 5X reach
The 5X diameter reach provides deeper drilling capability in a single pass. Three flutes balance material removal and stability, though the tool is not intended for hardened steels or high-temperature alloys.
Upgrading from standard two-flute drills
Shops moving from conventional two-flute drills gain smoother finishes and better hole straightness in aluminium. The step is worthwhile when cycle time and surface quality matter more than tool cost.

Questions about this item
Will the 22923400 drill fit the chuck on my older drill press?
The 22923400 uses a standard shank design compatible with common three-jaw chucks found on older drill presses, allowing direct installation without adapters.
How can I verify the Twister Al 5X is cutting correctly after setup?
Check for consistent chip formation and a smooth hole wall; the three-flute geometry should produce even chips and minimal vibration when feed and speed are set for aluminium.
Does the 22923400 package include cutting fluid or a storage case?
The box contains only the 22923400 drill bit; cutting fluid and a protective case must be purchased separately.
