Cheers I have some of those and they only fit the front axle 😕

rodriguez:
Suntour BMX sealed hubs use the same axles front and rear, 10 x 1 mm so they should definitely fit.

I bought some for a hub that had sat with no nuts for years and they didn't appear to fit either, would only screw onto the axle a little bit on each side.

The axle was slightly corroded and dirty I gave the threads a good clean with a brass brush then carefully put the nut with a bit of engine oil to lubricate.

If the worst comes to the worst you can get replacement 10 x 1mm track axles, not cheap though.
