Twister Xd 5X Solid Carbide Drill
The M.A. Ford Twister Xd 5X is a solid carbide drill built for precision drilling in demanding materials. It suits machinists and fabricators who need accurate holes in tough alloys and hardened steels.
5/64 inch diameter
The 5/64 inch cutting diameter is the single specification that determines fit for a given hole size. Select this drill only when the finished hole must match that exact dimension.
High-performance drilling capacity
The solid carbide construction provides the rigidity and wear resistance needed for high-speed drilling in difficult materials. It handles hardened steels and abrasive alloys where high-speed steel drills wear quickly, but it is not suited for deep-hole drilling beyond standard flute length or for hand-held use without rigid machine support.
