Twister Xd 3X Coolant-Fed Drill
The M.A. Ford Twister Xd 3X is a coolant-fed drill built for high-efficiency holemaking in demanding production environments. Its through-coolant design delivers lubricant directly to the cutting zone, enabling deeper drilling cycles with improved chip evacuation. This tool targets machinists and manufacturing engineers who need consistent performance in tough alloys and high-volume applications.
Practical limits of coolant-fed drilling
Effective use requires a machine spindle and tool holder capable of supplying pressurised coolant through the tool body. Without that infrastructure, the internal coolant channels cannot function and the drill reverts to external flood cooling only. The 6.50 mm diameter fixes the hole size, so the tool cannot be adapted for larger or smaller bores. Buyers who need variable diameters or lack through-spindle coolant capability will not benefit from the core design.
Build quality and daily implications
The solid carbide construction with specialised coating resists wear and heat during extended cuts, supporting repeatable hole quality over long runs. A cylindrical shank fits standard ER collets or hydraulic holders, simplifying setup on common CNC equipment. The coolant-fed geometry demands clean, filtered fluid to prevent blockage in the fine internal passages, making coolant maintenance a daily operational requirement.

Questions about this item
Is the 6.50 mm Twister Xd 3X the only diameter available in this range?
The supplier data lists only the 6.50 mm size under part number 2XDCS2559A. Other diameters may exist in the Twister Xd family but are not shown here.
What does the 3X designation mean for drilling performance?
The 3X indicates a three-times-diameter flute length, giving deeper hole capability in a single pass compared with shorter drills.
How does the coolant-fed design affect chip evacuation?
Internal coolant channels deliver fluid directly to the cutting edges, improving chip removal and tool life in deep holes.
