Worth a punt for a fiver. I would expect so.  Otherwise the wellgo ones from halfrauds  do the job

Being a little overweight at 15 stone myself, I tend to try and find and use Cro Mo axles, rather than just steel ones, especially if I know I will ride the bike lots.

I think Redline done/do some pedals with cro mo axles that are suitable for DX's
