Description

Kadee HO #24 Plastic Couplers with Draft Gear boxes Short 1/4" Underset Shank - 2 Pair

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#24 Magne-Matic Plastic Coupler may be mounted with the included #213 or #232 Gearbox or with most other manufacturers cast-on coupler pockets.
