Hornby R8219 NEM Couplings β 2 Pack
Replace damaged or missing couplings on compatible Hornby model railway rolling stock with this two-pack of Hornby R8219 NEM couplings. A useful spare for maintaining smooth, reliable connections between locomotives, coaches and wagons.
Key Features
- Hornby reference: R8219.
- Pack contains 2 couplings.
- Designed for compatible NEM coupling pockets.
- Black coupling components for model railway maintenance and repairs.
Compatibility
Suitable for compatible rolling stock fitted with the appropriate NEM coupling pocket. Check the coupling type and pocket fitted to your locomotive or rolling stock before ordering. Not all older Hornby models use NEM pockets.
Installation
Carefully remove the existing coupling from its pocket and insert the replacement, checking that it sits securely and moves freely. Test coupling and uncoupling on level track before running a full train.
HobbyTrax Expert Tip
Check that the NEM pocket is level and undamaged before fitting a replacement coupling. Incorrect coupling height can cause unwanted uncoupling, particularly over points and uneven track.
