8.40 mm Twister Al 5X Drill
The M.A. Ford Twister Al 5X is a three-flute drill bit with an 8.40 mm cutting diameter. It is designed for drilling aluminium and similar non-ferrous materials. The 5X designation indicates a length-to-diameter ratio suited for deeper holes. This tool targets professional machinists and maintenance teams.
Suited for aluminium and non-ferrous work
Machinists producing high volumes of accurate holes in aluminium will benefit from the three-flute geometry. Workshops focused on stainless steel, hardened alloys or composite materials should look at alternative tooling. The drill is not intended for hand-held use in wood or masonry applications.
Consistent chip evacuation at depth
The three-flute design promotes steady chip removal during extended drilling cycles. This reduces the risk of clogging and heat buildup when reaching full 5X depth. Cutting edges maintain engagement longer than two-flute equivalents under continuous feed. California Proposition 65 warnings apply to this product.

Questions about this item
Will my drill press accept the 8.40 mm shank on this M.A. Ford Twister Al 5X bit?
The drill has an 8.40 mm diameter; any chuck that opens to at least that size will hold it.
Can I use this 3 flute drill alongside my older cobalt bits in the same job?
Yes, the three-flute geometry cuts aluminium cleanly while your cobalt bits handle steel sections.
How do I confirm the 22933070 is cutting correctly after I start the machine?
Expect smooth, chatter-free holes in aluminium with consistent chip evacuation from the three flutes.
