Coupler Screws

May 08, 2004 1 Replies

I have recently purchased some of the Thrall and Gunderson units from Aline. All have not arrived, but the first arrived without screws for the Kadee couplers. I would like to know which size screws I should use? Thanks in advanced for your assistance.



Also I was wondering if anyone has tried to add the extra detail kits to these already assemble units and what luck they have had.

Assuming they are HO, I would use 2-56 screws.

A good source for inexpensive small screws is Micro Fasteners

I have been using button head allen socket screws for mounting couplers and trucks, much cleaner looking installation, and no bunged up screw heads.
