9.60 mm Twister XD Coolant Drill
The M.A. Ford Twister XD 5X is a coolant-fed drill bit manufactured to a 9.60 mm diameter. It is built for machine shops and production lines that need accurate holes in tough alloys with internal coolant delivery.
Suited for high-volume metal drilling
This drill suits operators running CNC centres or dedicated drilling units where through-tool coolant is standard. Buyers without coolant-fed spindles or who need diameters other than 9.60 mm should look at alternative tooling.
5X diameter drilling depth capability
The 5X designation indicates a flute length designed for holes up to five times the 9.60 mm diameter. This single reach parameter decides whether the bit matches the required hole depth on the job.

Questions about this item
What does the 9.60 mm diameter mean when the drill is mounted in a machine?
The 9.60 mm diameter is the cutting size that the drill will produce in the workpiece when it is held in a compatible tool holder.
What shank interface does the Twister XD 5X use and what does it limit?
The drill uses a straight shank that fits standard drill chucks or collets, limiting use to holders that accept that shank diameter.
What physical space and coolant setup are needed to fit this drill?
The 5X length requires a machine with enough spindle travel and a coolant-through spindle or external coolant delivery aimed at the drill point.
