Aluminium-specific 5×D drill
The M.A. Ford CDACR2812 Cyclone Drill is engineered for aluminium workpieces. Its two-flute geometry and coolant-fed design evacuate chips efficiently in soft, gummy material. Machinists and fabricators who run dedicated aluminium jobs gain consistent hole quality without manual peck cycles.
Coolant-through thermal control
Internal coolant passages direct fluid to the cutting zone, suppressing heat build-up during deep-hole drilling. The 5× diameter length increases dwell time, so steady coolant flow prevents built-up edge and extends tool life. Operators experience quieter cuts and reduced spindle load compared with external flood cooling alone.
5× diameter reach decides fit
The 2812 model provides a 5× diameter drilling depth in a single pass. Shops needing deeper holes without tool changes will find this length suitable; those restricted by shorter machine envelopes or requiring longer reach must select a different specification.

Questions about this item
How is the M.A. Ford CDACR2812 Cyclone Drill installed in a CNC machine, and what coolant setup step is often missed?
Secure the shank in a precision holder, then connect coolant lines to the through-tool ports; operators often forget to verify flow rate before starting the 5X drilling cycle.
What maintenance or replacement will the 2-flute carbide drill need after extended use in aluminum?
The cutting edges will dull first; plan to resharpen or replace the drill once flank wear reaches the wear land limit for the CDACR2812 geometry.
What limit appears first during sustained high-speed drilling with coolant feed?
Thermal buildup at the drill point typically becomes the limiting factor before flute clogging or holder runout in continuous 5X operations.
