Review: For detail work with heavier Dremel models - I own the Dremel 8000-03 Cordless which is only 14oz. I partly bought it because I wanted a relatively light tool for small work. Most of the usefulness of the flex shaft attachment is in reducing the weight of what you have to hold in your hand for detail work, so this attachment isn't quite as useful to me as it would be if I had one of the corded models that weights twice as much. I bought it anyway, along with the Dremel 575 Right Angle Attachment just so I'd have it around in case I needed to get in to tighter spaces or needed further "weight reduction" over holding the tool itself in one hand. If I were using a corded model it would be absolutely essential for me for what I do. Because it isn't something that I normally need, I haven't used it that much and probably won't use it routinely, so I can't properly speak to its durability. (I usually go back and update these reviews after a while though to update people on that.) But in my testing it feels very sturdy and solid and so I feel confident in its ability to hold up when maintained properly. (Not stored so that it bends at sharp angles, greased at intervals as specified in the manual, etc.) It seems to have no problem working with the Dremel 4486 Keyless Chuck . Attaching and removing the flex drive from the tool itself it is similar to attaching and removing the right angle attachment (you need to replace the collet nut or chuck on the rotary tool with a "drive" adapter that the cable slots into) both of which are pretty easy. I am not entirely sure if it's OK to attach the right angle adapter to the handheld part of the flex shaft as it seems like together they may create too much friction on the drive and thus possibly too much additional load on the motor. (Remember these rotary tools power accessories based on speed, not on torque. High speed low torque often does not deal with too much continuous load very well.) Anyone who knows if this is considered OK or who has long term experience using both together please post a comment. A couple of things that you must keep in mind when using this: 1) You really do want to hang the tool up above where you're working when you're using this flex thing. I can't say exactly why, but most likely it has to do with keeping the amount of friction low (increased when more of the shaft is curved vs straight) and keeping the shaft from bending at too sharp of an angle. If you have the Dremel 220-01 Work Station drill press type thing then that comes with an extendable hanger but I can't see any good reason to buy that thing just to get a hanger. In fact almost anyone could come up with something much less expensive and more secure than using the hanger on that. Screw an eye screw into the ceiling and hang it from a rope or run a "clothesline" across your work area and hang it on a couple of "S" hooks, or something. If you don't hang the tool I doubt the shaft is going to shred itself immediately but I'm sure it won't last as long, will be more likely to get damaged by an accidental sharp bend, and won't be able to run at as high of a speed due to the increased friction. 2) NOTE! In case you miss the little note in the box, you really do want to run this thing at high speed for a couple of minutes with it hung straight down and no accessory attached. It'll make some disconcerting little ticking sounds at first but those will stop after several seconds. I suspect the point of this is that you want to evenly distribute the grease inside the shaft before running it while bent or otherwise doing any real work. Again, I doubt you'll shred the thing if you don't do this, but at the very least you might have a little trouble with your grinding, etc, for a minute if you try to use it immediately since it's going to distribute grease or otherwise break itself in when first used no matter what. It really will run at 35,000RPM and it really is OK to run it like this for two minutes straight without doing anything. It won't whip around or anything so this is pretty safe. (My cats weren't even that afraid of it while it was doing this.) 3) You will need to grease the thing at periodic intervals as the manual says or you will eventually shred the flexible cable inside the jacket. The grease you use for this is as common as dirt at auto parts stores though. So in short, this attachment is pretty important if you want to use a heavier model of a dremel in one hand. The other option in this case is to buy an additional smaller rotary tool for one-handed use but you'll probably end up with less power for more money if you take that option. If you already have a light tool that you can hold in one hand for a sufficient time without much trouble then you might want to hold off on buying this until the need arises. But in any case, this is a solid quality attachment that you'll likely be very happy with if and when you do have a use for it. ## Features - TAKE YOUR ENGRAVING, ETCHING, SANDING, AND CARVING TO THE NEXT LEVEL - SMALL HANDPIECE PROVIDES SUPERIOR CONTROL, LESS FATIGUE, AND BETTER RESULTS - EXTREME PRECISION FOR FINE AND DETAIL WORK - FAST ACCESSORY CHANGE AND QUICK CONNECT TO ATTACH THE ROTARY TOOL - 3 FOOT LONG CABLE WITH EXCELLENT FLEXIBILITY - USE WITH A FLEX SHAFT COMPATIBLE DREMEL ROTARY TOOL - ACCEPTS BITS UP TO 1/8 INCH SHANK SIZE - WORKS WITH COLLET SYSTEM AND THE DREMEL CHUCK ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0000302Y8 | | Best Sellers Rank | #2,545 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #3 in Jewelry Making Engraving Machines & Tools | | Brand Name | Dremel | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (17,215) | | Included Components | Flex Shaft Attachment | | Item Dimensions | 41.47 x 41.47 x 4 inches | | Item Type Name | Rotary Tool Attachments | | Manufacturer | Dremel | | Manufacturer Part Number | 225-02 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | Product Defects Only - 1 Year | | Model Number | 225-02 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Ergonomic Grip, Multi Use | | Power Source | Battery Powered | | Recommended Uses For Product | Engraving, Sanding and Carving | | Style Name | Industrial | | UPC | 000346803136 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Dremel - **Color:** Black - **Power Source:** Battery Powered - **Recommended Uses For Product:** Engraving, Sanding and Carving - **Special Feature:** Ergonomic Grip, Multi Use ## Images ![Flex Shaft Rotary Tool Attachment with Comfort Grip and 36” Long Cable - Engraver, Polisher, and Mini Sander- Ideal for Detail Metal Engraving, Wood Carving, and Jewelry Polishing, 225-02 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/415DU8erpjL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: This product works for a black & decker?** A: Yes it should--I just attached the Dremel Flex Shaft to my Black&Decker RTX. Took me a bit of figuring out because Dremel rotary is made different than B&D so the instructions have to be interpreted and figured out. Biggie tip: the silver plastic collar at the tip of the RTX has to be unscrewed and it doesn't look like it can be until you get pliers and try it. That silver part will not go back on if you keep the flexshaft on because the flexshaft has it's own screw on collar (black). Good luck. **Q: dremel 225-01 Will this fit my Dremel 3000?** A: The Dremel Flex Shaft 225-01 fits models (according to the Flex Shaft package): 800, 8200, 8220, 275/100, 285/200, 395, 398, 300, 3000, 400, 4000, 4200. The Flex Shaft package says on the back, "This attachment is compatible with the 4200 when used with the 4200 Attachment Adapter found in your Dremel 4200 kit." **Q: I wonder if this will this help for drilling glass? Will it take a keyless chuck?

Maybe the reviewer did not do the 2 min break in as suggested by manufacturer. I've used it all day for different applications at differing speeds, it spins effortlessly at any speed up to 35,000rpm under load, so works great for me. Much easier to hold and use for extended times verses holding the tool itself. ## Frequently Bought Together - Dremel Flex Shaft Rotary Tool Attachment with Comfort Grip and 36” Long Cable - Engraver, Polisher, and Mini Sander- Ideal for Detail Metal Engraving, Wood Carving, and Jewelry Polishing, 225-02 - Dremel 4300-5/40 High Performance Rotary Tool Kit with LED Light- 5 Attachments & 40 Accessories - Ideal for Grinding, Cutting, Wood Carving, Sanding, and Engraving (Packaging May Vary) - Dremel 160-Piece Rotary Tool Accessory Kit with EZ Lock Technology - 1/8" Shank - Cutting Bits, Polishing Wheel and Compound, Sanding Drums & Disc (710-08) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/1321441-flex-shaft-rotary-tool-attachment-with-comfort-grip-and-36](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/1321441-flex-shaft-rotary-tool-attachment-with-comfort-grip-and-36) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
