Super Speed Axles
for Pinewood Derby Cars

Have a need for pinewood derby performance? - try our Super Speed Axles! These axles are precision, CNC-machined for top performance. They are equipped with a straight, round, and smooth shaft, and a slightly tapered head and a groove to reduce wheel-to-axle contact.

In addition no preparation is required¹ as there are NO BURRS OR CRIMP MARKS, and the axles have a smooth hard finish.

Benefits

Burrs and crimp marks are not present, eliminating tedious work.
Axle head is slightly beveled to minimize contact with the outside wheel hub.
Axle shaft is formed to a high tolerance, ensuring top performance.
Slightly oversized axle shaft minimizes wheel wobble.
The groove on the axle shaft minimizes contact with the wheel bore.
The superior nickel plating provides a smooth hard surface. No preparation is required.¹

Usage

Super Speed Axles substitute for official BSA, PineCar, and other nail type axles.² However, while these axles closely resemble BSA axles, they are not the official nail, and are not exact replicas. So, if your race has a strict axle requirement, consider our Official BSA Speed Axles.
