SKU CH-NE3P-Z00Z8

Solid carbide drill with a 15.50 mm diameter for high-precision drilling tasks

  • Solid carbide construction resists wear at 15.50 mm diameter
  • Twister XD 5X geometry improves chip evacuation in deep holes
  • 5X length-to-diameter ratio extends reach for through-hole drilling
  • M.A. Ford manufacturing quality ensures consistent hole accuracy
  • Prop 65 notice included for California regulatory compliance

Application fit

The M.A. Ford Twister XD 5X is a solid carbide drill sized at 15.50 mm for high-performance holemaking in tough materials. It suits production shops and maintenance teams that need repeatable accuracy and long tool life. Buyers who require a different diameter, a coated variant, or an indexable system will need another product.

Installation and common issues

The drill fits standard tool holders that accept a 15.50 mm shank, so setup is a direct clamp-and-run operation. Problems usually arise from insufficient coolant flow, incorrect feed rates for the workpiece material, or worn holder collets that allow run-out and premature wear.

Interface limits

The tool operates within the mechanical limits of a rigid tool-holding interface and the spindle power available on the machine. Performance drops if the holder cannot maintain concentricity or if the machine lacks the torque to sustain the required cutting parameters at this diameter. The California Proposition 65 notice applies to the product.
