Solid carbide drill for precision holes
The M.A. Ford Twister Xd 3X is a solid carbide drill bit manufactured for accurate holemaking in demanding materials. Its 3X diameter flute length supports deeper drilling without tool changes. The 7.10 mm cutting diameter suits metric-sized fastener and dowel work. Machinists and fabricators select it for repeatable results in steel, cast iron and high-temperature alloys.
Heat resistance and cutting efficiency
Solid carbide construction maintains edge hardness at elevated temperatures generated during continuous cuts. The Twister Xd geometry promotes chip evacuation, reducing flute packing and the torque spikes that cause breakage. Lower cutting forces decrease spindle load and acoustic output during normal drilling cycles. The coating further reduces friction and extends tool life in abrasive workpieces.
7.10 mm cutting diameter defines fit
The single specification that decides suitability is the 7.10 mm diameter; the hole produced will match this size within the drill's tolerance class. Buyers needing a different nominal diameter, an inch-based size or a longer 5X or 8X flute length cannot use this part number. Verify the required hole size and depth-to-diameter ratio before ordering.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 7.10 mm Twister Xd 3X drill in my drill press and what step is often missed?
Secure the 7.10 mm shank fully in the chuck, then verify run-out before starting; the step most users skip is checking concentricity at the tip.
What maintenance or replacement will the 2XDSS2795A solid carbide drill need over time?
The solid carbide body cannot be resharpened economically; replace the drill once the cutting edges show wear or chipping.
What limit appears first when the 7.10 mm Twister Xd drill runs continuously in tough material?
Heat buildup at the cutting edges is the first limiting factor; use peck cycles and coolant to manage temperature.
