7.30 mm Coolant-Fed Drill
The M.A. Ford Twister XD 5X is a coolant-fed drill with a 7.30 mm cutting diameter designed for high-performance drilling in demanding materials. Its through-tool coolant delivery improves chip evacuation and extends tool life during deep-hole applications. The 5X diameter-to-length ratio supports deeper cuts in a single pass. It is built for professional machining environments where precision and repeatability matter.
Machinists needing deep-hole capability
This drill suits CNC operators running deep-hole cycles in steel, stainless alloys and high-temperature metals where internal coolant is required. It is not suited for hand-held drilling, shallow-hole work or machines without through-spindle coolant supply. Buyers without coolant-fed spindles or those drilling softer materials like aluminium with standard tooling should consider alternatives.
Standard shank fit for coolant holders
The drill fits directly into standard coolant-fed tool holders with matching shank dimensions, requiring no adapter for compatible spindles. Installation is straightforward: secure in the holder, verify coolant flow and run the recommended parameters. The most common issue is insufficient coolant pressure or volume, which reduces chip evacuation and can cause premature wear or breakage in deep holes.

Questions about this item
What machine spindle is required to run the 7.30 mm Twister XD 5X coolant-fed drill?
The drill needs a CNC spindle that can deliver internal coolant through the tool holder and accept a 7.30 mm shank.
Will the 7.30 mm Twister XD 5X fit in the same tool holders I use for older 7.30 mm drills?
Yes, any holder that clamps a 7.30 mm shank and supplies through-spindle coolant will work with this drill.
How can I confirm the 7.30 mm Twister XD 5X is cutting correctly after installation?
Verify steady coolant flow from the drill tip, consistent chip evacuation and hole diameter within tolerance for 7.30 mm.
