Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these keys compatible with all 32-inch axles?
A: No. These keys are specifically engineered for PMI 32.0-inch zinc-plated axles. They are not compatible with thin-wall axles (such as the AE8164) and are designed to fit the specific pocket dimensions of the PMI zinc series.
Q: How many keys are included in this set?
A: This set includes four steel keys, each measuring 3/16" tall by 1/4" wide, providing a complete replacement set for your axle setup.
Q: Why is it important to use the correct key for my axle?
A: Using the correct key ensures a flush fit within the axle pocket. A proper fit is critical for efficient torque transfer from the axle to your hubs, which prevents slippage and ensures consistent acceleration and handling on the track.
Q: Should I replace my axle keys regularly?
A: Yes. Over time, the high stresses of racing can cause wear on the keys. Keeping a fresh set of PM-18KS-32 keys on hand ensures your kart maintains setup integrity and prevents potential performance loss during a race weekend.
