Product identity
The M.A. Ford Twister Al 5X is a 3.90 mm three-flute drill built for high-performance drilling in aluminium and similar non-ferrous materials. Its geometry reduces chip welding and supports faster feed rates than standard twist drills.
Who it suits and who it does not
Machinists and fabricators who need clean, accurate holes in aluminium alloys will benefit from the specialised flute design. Buyers who want more diameter options or a drill optimised for steel, titanium or composite stacks should look at something else.
Installation and common issues
The drill fits any standard chuck or collet that accepts a 3.90 mm shank, so setup is straightforward. The most frequent problems are premature wear when run at incorrect speeds and chip packing if coolant flow is insufficient.

How do I confirm the 3.90 mm hole diameter is accurate after drilling?
Measure the finished hole with a calibrated gauge; it should read 3.90 mm within normal tolerance.
