Fractured Axel

Lower leading edge, The fact is that this part has broken, I have ordered a rod of the same size, but I am still not very familiar with the repairs or with the loose parts, I have the original ferrule and a rod of the same size, at first glance it seems simply a hollow rod that reaches the ferrule, then inside another rod that goes inside it to the ferrule, then it has a kind of hole through which a mini rod goes that fixes it, no idea, in principle being like that, it could fix it but, it's weird.






This is the part where the rod is filled

It's sometimes used by different manufacturers to strengthen the section of rod that goes into the ferrule, effectively making that part solid, look for 4mm rod, if you want to copy.

Unless you're hard on your kites I wouldn't bother.

I already have a 4mm one to fill it, with this it would not stay exactly the same as the other one?

Oh okay! you mean that it is not necessary to do the fixation with the mini rod I understand
