Twister Xd 5X Solid Carbide Drill 3.60Mm
The M.A. Ford Twister Xd 5X is a solid carbide drill bit with a 3.60 mm diameter designed for high-performance drilling in tough materials. It suits professional machinists and maintenance technicians who need precise holemaking with extended tool life.
Upgrading from standard high-speed steel bits
Switching to this carbide drill is worth it when cutting hardened steels, stainless alloys or high-temperature metals that wear out conventional bits quickly. The 5X geometry reduces cycle time and improves hole quality in demanding production runs.
Check shank compatibility and coolant setup
Verify that your tool holder accepts the drill shank and that your machine can deliver adequate coolant pressure for deep-hole evacuation. Confirm the workpiece material matches the drill’s recommended application range before ordering.

Questions about this item
What size drill chuck is needed for the 3.60 mm shank?
A chuck that accepts a 3.60 mm round shank is required; standard 3/8 in or 1/2 in keyed or keyless chucks will grip this diameter.
How should the 2XDSR1417A drill be installed to avoid run-out?
Insert the shank fully into the chuck, tighten all three jaws evenly, and verify concentricity with a dial indicator before drilling.
When does the solid carbide 3.60 mm drill need replacement?
Replace when corner wear reaches the margin, chipping appears on the cutting lips, or hole size and finish exceed tolerance.
