NIB – New In Box | HO Scale (1:87) | Scale Head | Medium Centerset Shank

Upgrade your HO scale locomotives and rolling stock with Kadee #158 Magne-Matic Metal Whisker Couplers, designed for reliable operation and a more prototypically accurate appearance.

Featuring a smaller scale-size coupler head and Kadee's self-centering Whisker design, these metal couplers offer dependable coupling and magnetic uncoupling without requiring separate centering springs.

The medium centerset shank makes them a popular choice for replacing factory-installed couplers on many HO scale locomotives, freight cars, and passenger cars.

Compatibility

Kadee #158 couplers are suitable for many HO scale locomotives and rolling stock equipped with medium-centerset knuckle couplers.

They are a scale-head alternative to Kadee #148 and are interchangeable in many applications with Kadee #5, #28, and #58 couplers.

The included #242 insulated gear boxes can be used where a replacement mounting box is required.

Installation Note: Check coupler mounting height and clearance before installation. Avoid mounting metal couplers directly in metal draft gear boxes where electrical shorts could occur.
