| Mar 16, 2020 at 9:33 | comment | added | Chris H | @James I thought as much, but I've had the head snap off an ultra low-head screw unexpectedly (on a handlebar phone mount when I hit a pothole, so a smaller screw but a smaller load). Then your axle would be much less constrained | |

| Mar 9, 2020 at 21:22 | comment | added | James | no, the screw itself is not load-bearing, it's to hold the axle in place as well as with fork pinch bolts, that's it | |
| Mar 9, 2020 at 10:28 | comment | added | Chris H | It's close to a low-head cap screw or even an ultra-low-head, but I'd be wary of recommending a generic fastener to hold the front wheel on, at least without further information (though to be honest that looks almost like black-anodised aluminium, which would suggest the screw itself isn't not load bearing | |
| Mar 8, 2020 at 22:44 | comment | added | Daniel R Hicks | It apparently would be called an "end cap", but that does you little good, since the style you have is fairly "odd". | |

Integrate info from comment.

| Mar 8, 2020 at 10:22 | comment | added | Swifty | hmm yes, more detail required, it's not a part that's super common, so details on wheel and fork brands, or photos of the other parts would help. | |
