Precision Micro Drill for Deep Holes
The M.A. Ford Twister Coolant 10X Micro Drill measures 2.40mm in diameter and is designed for high-precision drilling in metal. Its internal coolant channels deliver fluid directly to the cutting zone. This tool suits machinists and maintenance teams producing deep, accurate holes in tough alloys. It is not for general-purpose hand drilling or soft materials like wood and plastic.
Upgrade from Standard Micro Drills
Standard micro drills rely on external flood coolant that cannot reach the bottom of deep holes effectively. The 10X length-to-diameter ratio with through-tool coolant clears chips and controls heat at depth. The jump is worth it when hole depth exceeds what external cooling can support without peck cycles. It does not replace larger diameter drills or tools for shallow-hole work.
Installation and Common Issues
The drill fits standard collets or chucks sized for 2.40mm shanks; ensure the machine spindle runs true to prevent runout. Activate the coolant system before the tool contacts the workpiece to avoid thermal shock. Common issues include coolant filter blockage starving the tip and excessive feed rates snapping the slender flute. Proper filtration and conservative parameters prevent most failures.

Questions about this item
What shank diameter and holder type does the 2.40 mm Twister Coolant 10X Micro Drill require?
The drill has a 2.40 mm diameter; use a precision collet or hydraulic holder that matches this shank size for true-running accuracy.
What is the correct peck-drilling sequence when installing this 10X micro drill in a CNC spindle?
Start with a pilot hole, then run at recommended RPM with internal coolant on; skipping the pilot step causes deflection and breakage.
When should the 2MDCL0945A drill be replaced based on wear inspection?
Replace when corner wear reaches the margin or when the coolant hole shows material build-up that cannot be cleared by flushing.
