Twister Gp 5X Drill Straight Shank
The M.A. Ford Twister Gp 5X Drill is a precision cutting tool built for high-performance drilling tasks. It features a straight shank design for secure chuck engagement in standard drill presses and handheld units. The tool is supplied new and carries the manufacturer part number 30003900.
Suited for precision metal drilling
This drill suits machinists and fabricators who need accurate holemaking in steel and alloy materials. The straight shank limits use to three-jaw chucks or collets, so it will not fit SDS or hex quick-change systems. Buyers who need a tapered shank or coolant-through capability should look at a different tool.
Size No 61 determines the hole diameter
The single specification that decides fit is the No 61 size designation, which fixes the cutting diameter for the intended application. Selecting the wrong size produces an incorrect hole, so verify the required diameter before ordering. The tool also carries a California Proposition 65 warning for chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm.
