Ace Trucks AF1 Skate Tool - All in One - Axle/Kingpin Rethreader - Steel
SKU: AT-AC514 (AF1)
Description
The Ace Trucks AF1 Skate Tool redefines what a skate tool can do, and it's even smaller than the Ace Classic. Hardened steel axle and kingpin re-threaders are recessed right into the wheel and truck wrenches, so you can tune up your trucks anywhere.
Knurling on the handle doubles as a griptape file in a pinch, and a check-ball engagement mechanism keeps the Phillips/Allen key and hardware tool from getting lost. It's made from 100% high-grade tool steel.
