I can hold a round shank in an ER-style collet.

I can hold a round shank and square tap shank at the same time in an ER-style collet...

...Anyone know of a manufacturer making ER-style collets to hold hex shank tooling?

Got a wire machine? Wire em out with .006 diameter wire with undercuts in the corners. Wire it out +.0015/side.

That would be my best bet, but most ER collets are divided into eight segments. You could end up cutting some corners - so to speak.

How about using an adapter bushing?
