M.A. Ford CXDSS 0925AP 9.25 mm Cyclone Xd 3X Solid Double Margin Drill

9.25 mm Cyclone Xd drill

The M.A. Ford CXDSS 0925AP is a solid double-margin drill built for precise holemaking in metalworking environments. Its 3X diameter design suits production runs where rigidity and chip control matter more than reach. The tool targets machinists who need consistent diameter accuracy without switching to a longer flute length. Buyers who want extended reach or coolant-through capability will need a different configuration.

9.25 mm diameter and 3X length

The 9.25 mm cutting diameter handles standard tapped-hole sizes and clearance drilling in steel, cast iron and non-ferrous alloys. The 3X flute length provides enough depth for through-holes in typical plate or bracket thicknesses while keeping deflection low. It runs out when hole depth exceeds three times the diameter or when internal coolant is required for deep-chip evacuation. The solid construction limits use in materials that demand through-tool lubrication.

Shank fit and double-margin guidance

The drill fits standard tool holders that accept its shank diameter, allowing quick changes on CNC machining centres or manual drill presses. Double margins guide the tool in the hole, improving roundness and surface finish without needing a separate reaming pass. This frees up cycle time by combining drilling and finishing in one operation. Shops without rigid spindle runout control may see reduced margin life.
