M.A. Ford Twister GP 5X Drill 2.70 mm
The M.A. Ford Twister GP 5X Drill is a 2.70 mm straight shank cutting tool built for precise holemaking in metal. It serves machinists and maintenance crews who need a rigid, jobber length drill for general purpose applications. The 30010630 model is supplied new and ready for immediate use in a drill press or handheld driver.
Sustained drilling performance
Under continuous load the drill maintains centre stability and resists walking on flat surfaces. Its flute geometry evacuates chips efficiently to reduce heat buildup during extended cuts. The substrate and coating combination preserves edge integrity when drilling through carbon steel or alloy plate without frequent peck cycles.
Straight shank interface limits
The straight shank fits standard three jaw chucks and collet holders up to the shank diameter. It cannot transmit the high torque of a tapered or whistle notch shank, so heavy feed rates may cause slip in worn chucks. The shank also lacks a drive flat, limiting its use in toolholders that rely on positive rotational locking.

Questions about this item
Does the 2.70 mm drill generate noticeable heat or noise during continuous drilling?
The Twister GP 5X drill is a solid cutting tool with no motor, so it produces only the heat and sound of the cutting action itself.
What shank size must my drill chuck accept to hold the 30010630 bit?
The bit has a straight shank sized at 2.70 mm, so the chuck must grip that diameter securely.
Can the 30010630 Twister GP 5X be used in an older drill press with a standard chuck?
Yes, the straight 2.70 mm shank fits any chuck that opens to that size, regardless of the machine's age.
