Twister XD 3X 3.40 mm drill

The M.A. Ford Twister XD 3X is a solid carbide drill sized at 3.40 mm. It is built for machining professionals who need a rigid, wear-resistant tool for short-hole drilling in tough materials. The 3X geometry supports stable cutting in a single pass.

Thermals noise and power draw

As a non-powered cutting accessory, the drill produces no electrical noise and draws no power itself. Heat generated during cutting depends entirely on the machine spindle speed, feed rate, coolant use and workpiece material chosen by the operator.

California Proposition 65 notice

Questions about this item

How is the 3.40 mm Twister XD solid carbide drill installed, and what step is often missed?

Chuck the drill securely in a collet or drill press, verify run-out is minimal, then apply cutting fluid before starting; the step often skipped is confirming concentricity after tightening.

What maintenance or replacement will the 2XDSS1339A drill need later?

The solid carbide tip cannot be resharpened economically; once the cutting edges dull or chip, the entire drill must be replaced.

What limit appears first on the Twister XD 3X drill during sustained use?

Heat buildup at the 3.40 mm cutting diameter causes edge wear fastest; without adequate coolant flow the drill loses sharpness before the shank or flute geometry fails.
