M.A. Ford Twister Brad & Spur Drill No 40

The M.A. Ford Twister Brad & Spur Drill No 40 is a new power-tool accessory built for precision drilling tasks. Its brad-point tip and spur cutting edges help produce clean, accurate holes with reduced wander. The tool carries manufacturer part number 20709800CE for easy identification and reordering.

Suited for woodworkers needing clean entry holes

This drill suits woodworkers and joiners who require clean entry holes and minimal tear-out in timber and sheet goods. It is not intended for metal, masonry or other hard materials where a brad-point geometry would be ineffective. Buyers needing a twist drill for general-purpose metalwork should look at a different tool type.

Brad-point and spur geometry for clean wood holes

The defining specification is the brad-point and spur cutting geometry, which determines whether this drill matches the application. That design centres the bit instantly and shears wood fibres cleanly at the hole perimeter. California Proposition 65 warnings apply because the product contains a listed chemical.

Questions about this item

Does the No 40 Twister Brad & Spur Drill produce noticeable heat or vibration during extended use in a drill press?

The drill is a standard high-speed steel cutting accessory; heat and vibration depend on the workpiece material, feed rate and the drill press condition rather than on the bit itself.

What shank type or chuck size must the drill press or hand drill accept for the 20709800CE bit to fit?

The bit uses a straight shank sized for a standard drill chuck that can grip a No 40 diameter; check the chuck capacity of your machine before use.

Will the 20709800CE drill work reliably in an older drill press that runs at lower RPM than modern units?

Yes, the high-speed steel construction suits a wide RPM range; simply reduce feed pressure to match the slower spindle speed of the older press.
