M.A. Ford Twister HPD 5X Drill
The M.A. Ford Twister HPD is a high-performance drill designed for 5X diameter drilling depth. It suits professional machinists and maintenance teams who need reliable hole-making in metal using coolant-through tooling. The 3/8 inch size fits standard holders for CNC and manual operations. This new tool arrives ready for immediate use in production environments.
Suited for coolant-fed 5X drilling.
This drill serves shops running coolant-through spindles on milling machines or lathes where 5X depth covers the application. It is not for buyers who need longer reach beyond 5X diameter or tools designed for dry machining without coolant supply. Operations requiring carbide grades or coatings not listed here should evaluate other options.
3/8 inch diameter with 5X drilling depth
The critical specification is the 3/8 inch cutting diameter combined with a 5X depth-to-diameter ratio for coolant-through drilling. This defines the hole size and maximum depth achievable in a single pass. Verify machine spindle capacity and coolant pressure match the tool requirements before ordering.

Questions about this item
How do I install the M.A. Ford Twister HPD drill in my CNC machine and what step is often missed?
Mount the 3/8 inch shank in a precision collet or hydraulic holder, then verify coolant flows through the internal channels before starting the cycle.
What maintenance will this drill need and when should I replace it?
Inspect the cutting edges after each job; resharpen once flank wear reduces hole accuracy, and replace when the carbide substrate shows chipping or the coolant holes erode.
What limit appears first during sustained high-speed drilling with this tool?
The internal coolant passages can clog with fine chips if filtration is inadequate, cutting off cooling and causing premature edge breakdown.
