The aerospace workers use a 1/4"-28 collet that accepts 1/4" regular burrs.
Hre are some website for suppliers:
1. www.aircraft-tool.com
2. www.browntool.com
3. www.cleavelandtoolstore.com
4. www.ustool.com
Look for drilling accessories at these websites.
thanks for the reply mfolks,i looked through those sites and was unable to locate any carbide burrs that were threaded.
does anyone know if i can heat the hardened shanks of carbide burrs that i have and take the temper out enough to thread them?
i tried on one last night and the tungsten made in japan die that i have just made it shiney.
You'll have a hard time finding them, if they exist. No, you can't anneal and thread carbide. Has to be ground with diamond or similar.

Here's an adapter for three bucks that lets you use a straight-shank burr in your machine.
the shanks that i am talking about are not carbide,they are hardened steel,(as far as i can find out).i have solid carbide and the ones with the carbide heads soldered on.it is the ones with the soldered on carbide heads that i am curious about annealing and threading.
mfolks just read where you said collet,i am going inside small 2-cycle cylinders and a collet gets in the way.
i just ordered the armature for my cc-specialty grinder that i have the ninety degree attachment and 1/8 shank carbides for,so i will be back up and running.
but i had the rockwell ninety degree that i was trying to "rig up"thanks for the replies.
