Twister XD 5X Solid Carbide Drill
This is a 6.60 mm solid carbide drill from the M.A. Ford Twister XD 5X range. It is manufactured for precision hole-making in a variety of materials using standard rotating equipment. The tool is supplied new and ships directly from the manufacturer.
For CNC and manual drilling operations
Machinists and maintenance technicians who need a rigid, wear-resistant cutter for producing accurate 6.60 mm holes will find this drill suitable. It is not intended for applications that require a different diameter, a longer flute length, or a coolant-through design.
6.60 mm cutting diameter
The single specification that determines fit is the 6.60 mm diameter. Verify that your hole size, holder capacity and program call for this exact dimension before ordering.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 6.60 mm Twister XD 5X drill in my drill press and what step is often missed?
Chuck the shank fully, ensure the flutes clear the jaws, and set the spindle speed for carbide — many users forget to reduce RPM from high-speed steel settings.
What maintenance or replacement will the 2XDSR2598A drill need over time?
The solid carbide body cannot be resharpened economically; replace the drill once flank wear reaches the margin or hole tolerance drifts.
What limit appears first on the Twister XD 5X during sustained drilling in alloy steel?
Heat buildup at the cutting edges degrades the carbide coating fastest, so coolant flow and peck cycles must stay consistent to avoid premature failure.
