I have been making some rotary burnishing tools with my wood lathe. I typically make them with a 3/8" shaft. I have a request to make one that can be used on a 1725 rpm motor with a 1/2" shaft. I know I've found shaft couplers that reduce sizes like this before at MSC or Enco, but I can't seem to find them now. Does anyone know where I can get a coupler with 1/2" on one side and 3/8" on the other with decent tolerances for 1725 rpm use?

You can also bush a 1/2" shaft coupler down to 3/8".
