I bought some cheap rotary wood.rasps which were slightly too large for 1/8" standard. Collett, and the drill like chuck i learned to prefer.
I Used dremel and barrell sander to.reduce shaft diameter just enough to fit.
Was not much impressed with rotary rasp performance.
Get the dremel 90 degree head attachment. Wear out its bearings with u balanced bits and too much side pressure. Also yields increased control and precision.

I need a collet for a 5/32 shaft
Which Dremel rotary bit do you have that's 5/32 ?
All the Dremel rotary bits that I've ever seen are all 1/8.
It's not a Dremel bit . Hopefully I don't have to take it back
That's your problem lady!
I have this on both of mine (corded and cordless), no issues in daily use. I snug it with pliers not just finger tight.

Even tho it fits up to 1/8 bit have you tried a 5/32 bit ?
No but I will tonight, I forgot that is 3.8mm?
I have an old 395 Type I. Other than motor brushes (I can use late model brushes as long as I swap the springs) and accessories, motor parts are hard to source. I pick up trashed Type I's for parts when ever I see them on the used market. The brush holders seem to the most vulnerable to breakage.
I checked the Dremel branded one and it is just a hair too small.
