Wolf Tooth Axle Handle Fork Thru Axle

You must check the Wolf Tooth compatibility chart on their website or your fork manufacturer's specifications to ensure you select the correct axle for your specific model.

The captive steel washer is designed to reduce friction between the axle head and the fork dropout. This prevents galling—where metal surfaces fuse or wear down—and creates a stiffer, more secure interface when you tighten the axle.

At 38g, this axle is precision-machined from 7075 T6 aluminum, which is a high-strength, lightweight alloy. While weight savings vary depending on the stock axle you are replacing, this component is engineered specifically to shed grams without sacrificing the structural integrity needed for suspension forks.

No, these specific axles are engineered exclusively for front suspension forks. They are not compatible with rear dropouts, which have different spacing and thread requirements.
