1. The Pro Axle Press allows the builder with only a hammer to both straighten the shaft of the axle and square the head of the axle to the centerline of the shaft for an accurate axle.
   
   
2. The Pro Axle press allows for easier and correct alignment that will require minimal to no alignment adjustment. Most alignment adjustments are required due to inaccurate parts giving inaccurate results. Straight Axles = Straight Cars.
   
   
3. The Pro Axle Press Reduces Friction!!!! By creating a straight axle in an accurate hole on the body, the wheel will work in the most efficient manner. The fastest axle/wheel combination in a neutral position in which the wheel can FLOAT back and forth between the axle head and the body as is travels down the track. This combination creates the lowest posiable friction by doing several things. The axle contact to hub is full width. This actually creates a low friction environment and evenly disperses the load over the entire axle/hub combo. Weight x Area = Force and Force is friction in the hub. A bent axle will only contact the hub in limited spots creating higher friction/smaller spots and not allow the wheel to float back and forth. This usually allows the wheel to stay against the body or the axle head creating even more friction as the car travels down the track. A straight axle balances the force and equalizes the friction in the hub plus it allows the wheel to float back and forth and not staying on the body or axle head further reducing friction. STRAIGHT AXLES = MORE SPEED!
   
   
4. The Pro Axle Press can be used to raise a wheel to create a 3-wheel car. 3 wheels down will almost always be fastest and the Pro Axle Press can be used to slightly bend an axle to raise a front wheel off of the track
