They also made a nice quick-release skewer, typically seen gold-colored but I think they came in regular chrome plate also. I think they may have come standard on MaxiCar hubs in the 70s-80s; at least I have seen lots of MaxiCars with that skewer. Picture of one here: http://bulgier.net/pics/bike/Parts/Wheels/MaxiCar_Hubs/MaxiCar-RFG.JPG (http://tinyurl.com/MaxiCar-RFG)

Not to be confused with "NFG" components, which are No Good. (The F is silent.)
