Description

Kadee HO #58-25 Bulk Pack #58 ‘Scale’ Metal Couplers without Draft Gear Boxes Medium 9/32" 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 or insulated #28 coupler.

Supersedes #12

This industry leading coupler features an all metal standard coupler, and #634 standard centering spring. The #58 Magne-Matic ‘Scale’ Metal Coupler may be mounted with the #213, #232, #234, #242 Gearboxes not included, or with other manufacturers cast-on coupler pockets.

The 158 Whisker Coupler is equivalent to the #58 ‘Scale’ Metal Coupler
