Default DeWalt drill chuck shaft, inner thread spacing?

Anybody know what the inner thread dimensions of a DeWalt 18 volt
compact drill might be?

The chuck screws on the outer threaded area of the arbor/shaft
(maybe 3/8 x 24 threads), but the inner part of the shaft is also
threaded. It appears to be about 1/4 inch diameter, but more than
24 threads per inch.

Thanks.

If you're talking about the threads for the small screw that goes through
the center of the bottom of the chuck and into the end of the arbor, I
don't know what the thread size is, but every drill I've ever seen uses
a left-hand thread there.
