Post Where to find axles
I dont know if this is the correct place to ask this question but did not find a more suited place.

We have been using MaxV Super Speed Axles. They are .091" diameter, Nickel coated, and
grooved. I'd like to find some .091" diameter and Nickel coated without grooves.
I have found several nickel coated without grooves but they are not .091".

Please advise where I could locate such an axle.

I do not know off hand, but have you personally contacted the vendors ? called or e-mailed ? perhaps a special order that can do for you for the non grooved ones.

since the rules do not allow us to use them, I have not spent alot of time looking for nickel axles.

I did not see on either page that they are .091" diameter unless I just missed it on the sites.
