M.A. Ford Twister Xd 7X+ Drill
The M.A. Ford Twister Xd 7X+ is a coolant-fed drill designed for precision holemaking in demanding machining environments. It targets professional machinists and manufacturing operations that require reliable deep-hole drilling performance. The 3.60 mm diameter suits specific small-bore applications where chip evacuation and cooling are critical. This new tool arrives directly from the manufacturer for immediate shop use.
Coolant-Fed Drilling Constraints
Coolant-fed operation requires a machine spindle and toolholder capable of delivering high-pressure coolant through the tool body. Shops without through-spindle coolant capability cannot use this drill as intended. The 7X+ designation indicates a length-to-diameter ratio that demands rigid setups and stable workholding to prevent deflection. California Proposition 65 warnings apply due to chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm.
3.60 mm Capacity and Reach
The 3.60 mm cutting diameter defines the exact hole size this tool produces, with the 7X+ flute length providing extended reach for deeper holes in a single pass. It comfortably handles drilling depths up to seven times the diameter when coolant pressure and machine rigidity are sufficient. The tool reaches its limit in materials or setups that cannot maintain the required coolant flow or positional accuracy at this length-to-diameter ratio. Larger hole diameters or different length ratios require separate tooling.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the 3.60 mm Twister Xd 7X+ or a different diameter?
Choose the 3.60 mm drill when your hole size matches that diameter; other diameters in the range serve different hole sizes.
What does the 7X+ designation tell me about hole depth?
The 7X+ label indicates the flute length allows drilling to roughly seven times the 3.60 mm diameter in a single pass.
How does the coolant-fed shank work with my machine’s supply?
The internal coolant channel feeds cutting fluid straight to the tip through the shank, so your spindle or holder must deliver coolant at the required pressure.
