Default Flex Shaft Parts

Hello all,
I am attempting to adapt an electric concrete vibrator to a rotary flex shaft tool. It has a 1 hp motor, not sure about rpm, and a ten foot 1" diameter flex shaft. I've had this thing laying around for quite some time and I think it might just work. If I can find some way to attach a keyless chuck in place of the vibrator assembly. I will need to canabalize the outer sheath of the vibrator to build a handpiece, so that I can have a shaft with bearings. My question is, do the flex shafts that are purpose built have a 3/8"x24 threaded shaft?
