5.80 mm solid carbide drill

The M.A. Ford Twister XD 5X is a solid carbide drill bit manufactured to a 5.80 mm cutting diameter. It is engineered for high-performance drilling in demanding materials where tool rigidity and wear resistance are critical.

Suited for CNC and high-precision work

This drill suits machinists and maintenance teams running CNC stations or rigid manual setups who need consistent hole quality in tough alloys. It is not intended for hand-held drilling in soft materials where a flexible high-speed steel bit would be more practical and economical.

5X diameter drilling depth

The tool provides a drilling depth of five times its diameter, allowing deeper holes in a single pass without pecking cycles. This reach determines whether the bit can complete the required hole length in your application.
