Wolf Tooth Axle Cap is a small but purposeful upgrade designed to protect your frame and add a refined finishing touch to your bike. Engineered to take the brunt of rock strikes and crash damage, this replaceable cap threads directly into the dedicated recess found on Wolf Tooth rear axles, shielding the axle head—and your frame—from unnecessary wear. Machined from 6061-T6 aluminum, the axle cap is lightweight, durable, and easy to swap. Installation and removal are straightforward with a standard 8mm hex key, making it simple to replace a damaged cap or change colors to match your build. Thoughtful design ensures that a 5mm hex key can still pass through the cap for normal axle installation and removal, so functionality is never compromised.
