Application & user
The M.A. Ford Twister XD 3X solid carbide drill in 4.30 mm diameter is built for high-performance drilling in tough materials. It suits professional machinists and maintenance technicians who need precise, repeatable holes in steel, cast iron and similar alloys. The 3X length provides extended reach for deeper holes without changing tools.
Setup checks
Verify that your machine spindle and holder can accept a 4.30 mm shank and that the available clearance accommodates the 3X flute length. Confirm the workpiece material matches the drill’s recommended cutting parameters and that coolant delivery can reach the cutting zone. Ensure the toolholder runout is within tolerance to prevent premature wear.
Included items
The product ships as a single drill bit with no additional accessories, coatings or software. No driver bits, pilot drills or lubricants are bundled. The California Proposition 65 notices indicate the presence of listed chemicals, so handle with appropriate personal protective equipment and follow local safety regulations.

Questions about this item
Does the M.A. Ford Twister XD 3X drill arrive as a single 4.30 mm bit or in a set with other sizes?
The item is supplied as one solid-carbide Twister XD 3X drill measuring 4.30 mm; no additional bits, holders or coolant accessories are included.
How do I decide between the 3X length and other Twister XD lengths for my application?
Choose the 3X version when hole depth is roughly three times the 4.30 mm diameter; shorter 2X or longer 5X variants are offered separately for different depth requirements.
What does the 3X designation mean for chip evacuation and hole accuracy in practice?
The 3X label indicates a flute length about three times the 4.30 mm diameter, giving deeper reach while the solid-carbide construction and Twister XD geometry maintain straightness and chip removal in steel and cast iron.
