#156 Bulk Pack (25 pair) "Scale" Whisker® Metal Couplers (w/o Gearboxes) - Long Centerset Shank


The next evolution of model train couplers starts and ends with the Kadee® Whisker® series of couplers. The scale size and detail of the #58 coupler has long been popular with model railroaders, so we knew we had to offer a Whisker® version. The #156 is a Long Centerset scale sized coupler with smaller head and knuckle for a more prototypical look. The #156 features an even longer-lasting and more reliable design. No more fumbling with centering springs. No more multi-piece assemblies. The #156 Whisker® coupler is a true drop-in coupler. Use Kadee® Whisker® couplers in your next model and enjoy the most reliable and smooth coupling experience you've ever had. Always made right here in the USA with legendary Made In America quality.

The #156 is interchangeable with the #26, #36, #146, and most manufacturer's Long Centerset OEM knuckle couplers. For a #36 equivalent use the #156 in a #252 Gearbox.

Package Includes:

  • (25) Pair #156 "Scale" Whisker® Metal Couplers - Long Centerset Shank
  • (10) Spare #625 Knuckle Springs
  • **Gearboxes not included**

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. For insulated couplers use the #26 coupler.

*Note: Some manufacturers now produce models with non-industry standard coupler pockets (molded-on gearbox). These shallower coupler pockets may require slight modification to the gearbox or coupler to function properly. If the model has a shallow molded-on gearbox, the top of the #156 Whisker® coupler shank may be filed thinner to fit the shallower cast-on coupler pockets.
