1ngram Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 I want to put better RP wheels, preferably spoked, on a number of old Jouef wagons I've acquired. Where can I find such wheels? Who makes wheels of the right diameter and axle length? The only maker I know is SEM in Australia but there must be aftermarket makers closer to home?

doctor quinn Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 I’ve successfully used British fine scale 10.5mm lowmac wheels in Lima & Jouef. If they are tight I fine that squeezing the axle boxes and turning them helps the pinpoint to bed in. Otherwise Luck Feinmechanik make a comprehensive range.http://www.luck-radsaetze.de Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium readingtype Posted March 14, 2021 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 14, 2021 AMF87 sell nice looking wheels in RP 25, but see comments elsewhere about current availability in the UK. As for diameter, you don't state this but I see information around the web suggestion Jouef's standard was 10.4 or 10.5mm (that changed At some point in time; I've measured some recent products and they're more like the expected c.11mm) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
U36B Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 Very nice RP 25 wheels are sold by http://www.modellbahn-radsatz.de/h0/radsaetze-h0-rp25/jouef/index.php Availability in the UK (and hmmmm the North Frisian Islands ) is also difficult. You could try to contact them via their E-Bay shop: https://www.ebay.co.uk/str/benno002-22?_trksid=p2047675.l2563 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
