Skateboard Wheel Axle Nuts • Stainless Steel

Skateboard Wheel Axle Nuts

Grade 18-8 Stainless Steel

This set of 4 nuts comes in the very popular 5/16”-24 UNF (Unified Nation Fine) thread. If you are not sure of your thread size and have a measuring caliper, check either the nut ID (Inside Diameter) or the axle OD (Outside Diameter. The nut ID should be approximately .26 and the axle OD about .30 inches.

The test for stainless steel is a magnet. If a skateboard nut is readily magnetic then it is probably either plated or blackened steel, either of which will rust in time. Our axle nuts are made of grade 18-8 (18% Chromium and 8% nickel) solid stainless steel. They are only slightly magnetic and cannot be lifted with a magnet. They will never rust.

Most hardware store locknuts are quite tall. Our low profile locking axle nuts are approximately 1/3 shorter. Please check out the photo. This design holds just as well as the taller cousin but eliminates unneeded weight.

You may think that you can buy a set of similar nuts for your skateboard at a local store. It is doubtful that you will be able to find 5/16” lock nuts that are low profile, stainless steel with fine threads. Save some driving around time and gasoline money by simply ordering a set from us and have them delivered to your door.
