HO "Scale" All Metal Self-Centering WHISKER® Coupler - Medium
(9/32") Centerset Shank 2 Pair
#158

Can be used instead of a #58 Coupler "Scale" Head All Metal
"WHISKER" Coupler Medium Centerset Shank

The #158 "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) &
Metal WHISKER® Centering Spring, insulated Draft Gear Box and
Lid. The #158 Coupler may be mounted with the supplied #242 draft
gear box, other Kadee® HO-Scale draft gear box shown below or
with the manufactures cast-on coupler pockets. The coupler will
couple and uncouple with other Kadee® HO and HOn3 couplers. The
coupler has the same shank length as the NO.5®, 28, 38 or 58
coupler which will allow the modeler to remove the existing
NO.5®, 28, 38 or 58 coupler and replace with the new smaller
coupler. The #158 coupler is made of the same metal as the NO.5®
& #58 for strength and rigidity. It is not recommended to use a
metal coupler directly on a metal surface or in a metal draft
gear box to avoid the possible electrical crossover or shorting
that may cause damage. Use the provided insulated draft gear box.
The #158 package contains two pair of the new coupler and two
pair of the #242 gearboxes, and instructions.
