Twister Al 5X Drill No 27
The M.A. Ford Twister Al 5X is a three-flute drill sized as No 27 for precision hole-making. It targets machinists and fabricators who need accurate results in aluminium and similar non-ferrous materials. The specialised geometry reduces wandering at the start of the cut.
Sustained cutting behaviour
The three-flute design distributes chip load evenly across the cutting edges during extended drilling cycles. This balance lowers vibration and heat buildup compared with two-flute alternatives. Consistent chip evacuation prevents packing in deep holes, maintaining dimensional accuracy throughout long production runs.
Build quality and shank implications
The solid carbide construction resists wear when machining abrasive aluminium alloys day after day. A cylindrical shank fits standard collets and drill chucks without adapters, simplifying tool changes on manual or CNC equipment. California Proposition 65 warnings apply to this product.

Questions about this item
How much heat does the Twister Al 5X 3 Flute Drill No 27 generate when running all day?
The drill is a cutting tool without a motor, so it produces no heat of its own; heat comes from the machine spindle and cutting parameters you choose.
What must I already own for the Twister Al 5X 3 Flute Drill No 27 to work?
You need a compatible drill press, milling machine or CNC spindle that accepts the drill’s shank and can run at the speeds required for aluminium.
Will the Twister Al 5X 3 Flute Drill No 27 fit in the chuck of my older drill press?
It will fit if your chuck capacity matches the drill’s shank diameter; check the machine’s maximum chuck size before purchasing.
