7.40 mm coolant-fed drill
The M.A. Ford Twister XD 3X is a new coolant-fed drill with a 7.40 mm cutting diameter. It is designed for machining operations that require through-tool coolant delivery to the cutting zone. This drill suits workshops and production lines where consistent hole quality and chip evacuation are priorities. Buyers who need a different diameter or a non-coolant-fed design should select another tool.
Thermal and power characteristics
Coolant fed through the tool body manages heat at the cutting edges during normal drilling cycles. This reduces thermal expansion and helps maintain dimensional accuracy across repeated holes. Power draw follows the machine spindle load and the material being drilled. No independent noise or power figures are supplied for this item.
Sustained load behaviour
Under continuous drilling the internal coolant passages maintain steady temperatures at the cutting lips, limiting wear progression. Chip evacuation remains consistent because coolant pressure flushes chips from deep holes. The 3X designation indicates the flute length relative to diameter, supporting deeper holes without Peck cycles. No endurance test data or tool-life curves are provided.

Questions about this item
How is the 7.40 mm coolant-fed drill installed in the holder and what step is often missed?
Clamp the shank fully into a compatible coolant-through holder, align the internal coolant port with the spindle feed, and torque the collet to spec; the step often missed is verifying coolant flow before starting the cut.
What maintenance or replacement will the Twister XD 2913 drill need during its service life?
Resharpen the cutting edges when flank wear reaches the manufacturer limit, inspect the coolant hole for blockage each changeover, and replace the tool once the diameter falls below the minimum tolerance for the hole spec.
What limit appears first on the 7.40 mm drill under sustained high-feed drilling?
The coolant-hole diameter restricts flow at high pressure, so chip evacuation degrades before the carbide substrate reaches its thermal limit, forcing a feed reduction to maintain hole quality.
