I don’t know the DM axles, but Siegmono in Germany sales 48 hole N&K hubs since
long. They are very good quality, available whenever I needed one and you can
get them individually. The current price is 64 Deutschmark. These hubs are also
available with 36 holes at 2 different diameters of the holes (for different
spoke diameter).

Remark: I don’t work for Siegmono and I don’t get any benefits from them. I’m
just a customer who is happy having a vendor for some good quality spare parts.
