Dinky Toys Mild Steel Post-War Wheel Axles (Pack of 10)


  Our Price: £1.99
Dinky Toys Mild Steel Post-War Wheel Axles (Pack of 10)
Click to enlarge

This is for a pack of 10 (Ten) replacement "Dinky Toys" very close to the post-war specification wheel axels originally made by Dinky Toys..

The specification used by Dinky Toys Post-War models was British Imperial Wire Gauge 14  (or S.W.G. which was 0.080" or around 2.032mm)

Infact I do not believe that Dinky Toys for a moment were able to keep to this specification as without milling the material the tolerence would have been

"somewhere around this size" in any case here are the replacements made in "Mild Steel" to keep in keeping with "Dinky Toys" and to make the

crimping process easy with this softer metal. "Crimping" to my knowledge is best done using "Mole Grips" though people have differing methods that they

employ to give the effect they desire.If you wish to "Round" the ends i use a pin and ball hammer to do this you may prefer another method.

I cut the axles in 40mm lengths which should be long enough for most of the Post-War Models then you just "Clip them" to length depending on the model you

are fitting them to or if you want to match an existing axle in place already on the model as axles are often times bent too!

So each purchase is for a pack of 10 Axles enough to do 5 models!
