Description

Kadee HO #153-25 Bulk Pack #153 'Scale' Whisker Metal Couplers without Draft Gear boxes Short 1/4" Centerset Shank - 25 Pair

It is not recommended to use a metal coupler directly on a metal surface or in a metal draft gearbox to avoid possible electrical crossover and shorting that may cause damage.  Use the provided insulated gearbox.

The #153 ‘Scale’ Short Coupler will work anywhere a #23, #33, & #143 Coupler will work.

The #153 ‘Scale’ All Metal Self-Centering WHISKER Coupler features a ‘Scale’ Metal Coupler, a smaller head coupler which is more to scale and is patterned after the type 'E’ couplers and Metal WHISKER Centering Spring. The #153 Coupler may be mounted in Manufacturers cast-on coupler pockets or any of our HO-Scale draft gear boxes except #233 30-series gear box. The coupler will couple and uncouple with other Kadee HO and HOn3 couplers. The coupler has the same shank length as the #23, 33 or 43 coupler which will allow the modeler to remove the existing #23, 33 or 43 coupler and replace with the new smaller coupler. The #153 coupler is made of the same metal as the #43 for strength and rigidity.
