A: Yes, the plastic is recyclable!

A: Yes, you could use these as wheels on toy trains.

**Q: Do these come with axles? If not, any suggestions on which ones to buy?**
A: These wheels don't come with axles. You can use any rod that's 1/8 inches in diameter. 1/8 inch wooden dowels are a popular choice, but please note that there is some size variation with any wooden product, so some dowels will be slightly larger or smaller than 1/8 inches in diameter.
