M.A. Ford Twister Al 5X Drill 3.40 mm
This 3.40 mm drill is built for high-speed drilling in aluminium alloys. The three-flute design and 5X diameter geometry support fast chip evacuation and hole accuracy in production environments. It suits CNC operators and job shops that need consistent results in non-ferrous metals. The tool arrives new and ready for immediate use.
Best for aluminium-only workflows
Machinists focused on aluminium and similar soft alloys will gain cycle-time reductions from the specialised flute form. Workshops that regularly switch between steel, titanium or hardened materials should select a different drill geometry. The California Proposition 65 notice also applies, so facilities with strict substance restrictions must review compliance before purchase.
3.40 mm cutting diameter decides fit
The single specification that determines suitability is the 3.40 mm cutting diameter. It must match the hole size required by the part drawing or the tap drill chart in use. No other dimension or feature in the data overrides this requirement.
