The DT Swiss RWS Thru Skewer (12 × 142 mm Rear) is a genuine DT Swiss axle designed for frames that use a 12 × 1.5 thread pitch, delivering secure wheel retention and precise alignment.
The RWS system generates clamping force through a threaded bolt interface, rather than a cam mechanism, providing more consistent preload and improved stiffness. The integrated 7075 aluminum lever allows for tool-free tightening and can be repositioned after installation for optimal clearance and clean presentation.
This version is ideal for riders and shops that need an exact match for 12 × 142 mm rear frames with a 1.5 mm thread pitch, where thread compatibility is critical.
