Twister XD 3X Coolant-Fed Drill
The M.A. Ford Twister XD 3X is a coolant-fed drill designed for precision holemaking in demanding materials. It targets machinists and fabricators who require efficient chip evacuation and temperature control during deep drilling cycles. The 11.40 mm diameter suits specific hole-size requirements in production environments.
Sustained Load Behaviour
Coolant fed directly through the tool flushes chips from the cutting zone and reduces heat buildup during continuous operation. This design maintains consistent cutting performance over extended periods compared to external flooding alone. The 3X geometry supports stable feed rates without frequent pecking cycles.
Build and Connection
The solid carbide construction resists deflection under high thrust loads typical of deep-hole applications. A standard shank fits common ER collet holders or hydraulic chucks used in CNC machining centres. The coolant inlet accepts standard machine-tool plumbing for immediate integration. Buyers needing non-standard diameters or longer flute lengths cannot use this specific tool.

Questions about this item
Does the Twister Xd 3X coolant-fed drill generate much heat or noise during extended drilling?
The coolant-fed design directs fluid through the 11.40 mm tool to carry heat away from the cutting zone, keeping the drill body cooler and reducing thermal noise during long cycles.
What machine setup is needed to run the Twister Xd 3X 11.40 mm coolant-fed drill?
You need a CNC or milling spindle with through-spindle coolant capability and a holder that accepts the 11.40 mm shank to supply pressurised fluid through the drill.
Will the Twister Xd 3X 11.40 mm drill work in an older machining centre that only has flood coolant?
No — the drill requires through-tool coolant delivery; flood coolant cannot reach the internal passages, so an older machine without through-spindle coolant cannot use this tool effectively.
