You can now easily and reliably fix the broken end pin of your Hot Wheel bearing-type car axle without the need to dismantle the casting!

You will receive 2 repair kits (2 bearings and 2 sleeves).
Instructions:
Use sandpaper or a file to clean and roughen the exposed broken axle. Insert the tube into the bearing. Apply a VERY SMALL amount of super glue onto the axle. Install the tube+bearing onto the axle while being careful to avoid getting any glue onto the bearing. Wait for the adhesive to cure. Ensure the bearing spins free. Attach the wheel onto the bearing and adjust the insertion depth as needed to ensure the wheel+bearing spins free. For some loose-fitting wheels, consider adding a drop of super glue to secure the wheel to the bearing. Your repair is complete!
Notes:
- Hot Wheel car shown in photos is not included in the auction.
- The bearing is a custom made part and is not suitable as a direct replacement for original Hot Wheel bearings.
- Repair kits will be shipped in a standard letter envelope.
