Help to identify this collet?

[bobcat19]

So I bought this old Ryobi router at a garage sale for a few dollars in the hopes of using it, but when I got it home I noticed it was missing part of the collet, and on further inspection it doesn't seem to be the usual type. Can anyone help identify what I would need to use it?

Cheers

A quick search for Ryobi R150 isn't promising ...
Most show the chuck/collets no longer available, and a few similar stories of a cheap purchase, no collet, no replacement available.

Item number 43 appears to be what you're after

Part number 6940134

however being an older model might be difficult to find parts

Welcome to the forum by the way.

Do you know anyone with another brand of 1/4" router that you may be able to try their collet and if you find one that fits, that brand may be more readily available. By the measurement on your vernier it looks like it would be a 12mm thread and the style is very common.
