The NO.5® Magne-Matic® Metal Coupler may be mounted with the 213, 232, 234, 242 Gearboxes (not included) or with other manufacturers cast-on coupler pockets. The 148 Whisker® Coupler is equivalent to the NO.5® Metal Coupler. 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. Refer to our helpful Coupler Conversion Charts to determine the appropriate coupler to use on your model.
