Description

Kadee HO #22 Plastic Couplers with Draft Gear boxes Medium 9/32" Overset Shank - 2 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. 

This industry leading coupler features plastic standard coupler with metal knuckle, and #634 standard centering spring and comes complete with insulated draft gearbox and lid. The #22 Magne-Matic Plastic Coupler may be mounted with the included #213 or #232 draft gear box or with most other manufacturers cast-on coupler pockets. 

Package Includes:

(2) Pair #22 Plastic Shank Couplers - Medium Overset Shank

(2) Pair #634 Centering Spring NO.5 Style

(2) Pair #212 Talgo Truck Adaptors

(2) Pair #213 Gearboxes
