Speaker: Today, we're going to take a look at the adjuster plugs for the 7", the 10", and 12" brake assemblies. This part is for a quantity of four of them. These replacement adjuster plugs are designed to fit many Dexter and Demco electric and hydraulic trailer brake assemblies. They fit the Dexter 7", 10" and 12" Electric and Hydraulic Brake assemblies and the Demcos 10" and 12" hydraulic brakes. This part again is for a quantity of four plugs. The dimension on each plug, the over-all length is 1 3/32, the width is 15/32 wide. What these adjuster plugs are used for, they're used on a brake assembly.
Let me show you here. I happen to pull a 10" brake assembly. Let me zoom out here. At the bottom of all your brake assemblies on your trailer, there'll be an opening and there should be a plug in there. That plug is used for to seal off to keep any dirt and debris from getting inside your brake assembly when your drum's over this.
But, what you need to do is that slot 00:00:58 you pull that plug out. This plug is designed to go right in there. When you pull that plug out, it gives you access to adjusting your brakes, as you noticed the star wheel for adjusting your brakes is at the bottom. That slot is where you your screwdriver through and adjust that star wheel to adjust your brakes in or out. What you want to make sure you have is when you're done adjusting and put the plug back in again to keep any debris from getting in there. In this case, you happen to see there's just one opening so you just need one.
But on some there might be one slot or some there might be two at the bottom so you want to check your brakes and make sure you need to purchase how many you need to put in your brake assemblies. This part number I'm describing today is for a quantity of four. This is the adjuster plugs for the 7", the 10" and the 12" brake assemblies for a quantity of four.

These replacement adjuster plugs fit many Dexter and Demco (Dico) electric and hydraulic trailer brake assemblies.I've ordered products from etrailer in the past. I've also discussed some of my purchases with their technical support team. Always helpful and knowledgeable. The orders so far, including this most recent one are correct, complete and delivered in a timely manner. etrailer is a good company to work with in my opinion. 564103
This is not so much a review on the inexpensive and simple product I bought, which was as expected, but more a review on etrailer.com in general. The site is pretty good for finding information, and that information seems quite good. etrailer impresses me as a reputable seller that I would go back to again if I need something they sell. 408802
Priced right! Good quality. THANKS 473955
Haven't had much opportunity to test them in the Sierras but on the flat they work fine. The brake assemblies came as ordered and quickly. Installation was straight forward and went together with no problems. 375243
Ok, here is another product that is not nearly as good as it used to be. Remember when you were working on your 60's - 70's era cars.... huge drum brakes, adjusters and "little rubber plugs"? Well, now I know why all of them were missing on my TT, they are no longer nice quality, snug fitting rubber plugs like I used to swear at when trying to get time off. Nope, now they are some sort of harder rubbery plasticy sort of material with very little give and staying force.... They are not so easy to find, this seems to be as good as it gets so purchase extras! 475853
RobertOscar - 02/14/2019They are perfect fit for my Dexter brakes. IMO they are way over priced for 4 little plastic pieces. Since the new trailers don't come with those adjuster caps now, have no choice but to pay for it. 867607

Donna, Received the other items as promised, right on time. They were exactly what I ordered. Thanks 681706
They snapped into place and plugged the holes perfectly. 668223
I have two vehicles with drum brakes a 72 Dodge Charger (8 1/4) & a 00' (8 3/4) Ford ranger and this product went into place smooth as silk. The material was hard durable plastic and does what it's designed for and should be fine for daily driving. When it rains water gets into the drum through that oval hole & it's not good. Getter fixed today order NOW!!! 664817
Great product just like OEM. 658281
Perfect fit. It’s gets the job done. 650978
Prompt delivery, reasonable price, fit the bill. Plastic with ridge that holds firmly in place. 650445
I installed them last year before our 8000 mile summer trip and they are still there. 597564
Plugs arrived quickly and fit correctly. These plugs are a semi-rigid plastic, not rubbery, but seem to snap into place okay. All of my original plugs were missing, so I don't know if they were the same material or not. I am not 100% confident that these plugs are going to stay in place during travel, which is why I only gave 4 stars. etrailer service was quick and efficient, and I feel the price and shipping were fair. I will do business with them again in the future. 577026
