8.80 mm coolant-fed drill bit
The Twister XD 3X from M.A. Ford is a solid-carbide drill designed for production drilling in steel, stainless steel and high-temperature alloys. Its internal coolant channels deliver fluid directly to the cutting zone, improving chip evacuation and tool life. The 8.80 mm diameter suits applications that require a precise hole size before tapping or reaming. It is aimed at machine shops and maintenance teams running CNC or rigid manual equipment.
3× diameter drilling depth
The drill’s 3×D flute length allows holes up to three times the nominal diameter in a single pass without pecking. This reduces cycle time and minimises the risk of chip packing in deeper holes. The 2XDCS3465A designation identifies the specific geometry and coolant-fed configuration for this diameter. Buyers needing a 5×D or 8×D reach should select a different series.
Requires through-spindle coolant
The tool must be used with a machine that supplies coolant through the spindle at adequate pressure and flow for the 8.80 mm size. Rigid workholding and a stable spindle are essential to realise the designed performance. It does not suit hand-held drilling or machines without through-coolant capability. The shank matches standard tool-holder systems for this diameter class.

Questions about this item
What does the 8.80 mm diameter mean when I put this drill in my machine?
The 8.80 mm diameter sets the exact hole size this Twister XD drill will produce in your workpiece.
How does the coolant-fed design affect the drilling standard I can achieve?
Internal coolant delivery flushes chips and controls heat, allowing deeper, straighter holes at higher feed rates.
What shank style does the 2XDCS3465A need to fit my tool holder?
The drill uses a standard cylindrical shank that clamps directly into ER collets, Weldon flats or hydraulic holders.
