8.20 mm Twister GP 3X drill bit
The M.A. Ford Twister GP 3X is a solid-carbide drill bit with an 8.20 mm cutting diameter. It is designed for general-purpose drilling in steel, cast iron and non-ferrous metals. The tool suits maintenance engineers and production machinists who need a reliable high-performance drill for CNC or manual operations.
Behaviour under sustained load
The three-flute geometry improves chip evacuation and distributes cutting forces evenly across the tool. This design reduces heat build-up during continuous drilling cycles and helps maintain hole accuracy over long runs. The solid-carbide construction resists wear better than high-speed steel when feed rates are kept consistent.
Upgrade considerations
This bit replaces standard two-flute carbide or cobalt drills where faster penetration and longer tool life are required. The step up is justified when cycle-time reduction outweighs the higher initial cost per tool. It is not suited for deep-hole applications exceeding typical flute-length capacity or for materials needing specialised coolant-through tooling.

Questions about this item
Does the 8.20 mm Twister Gp 3X drill generate noticeable heat during extended drilling?
The drill is designed for efficient material removal, which helps manage heat buildup during prolonged use in metalworking applications.
What shank size must my drill chuck accept to hold the 8.20 mm Twister Gp 3X drill?
The drill features an 8.20 mm diameter shank, so your chuck must accommodate at least that size for secure clamping.
Can the 8.20 mm Twister Gp 3X drill be used with a standard bench drill press?
Yes, it fits any bench or pillar drill press that accepts an 8.20 mm straight shank and provides adequate speed control for the material.
