Jeff: Hello everybody, this is Jeff etrailer.com. Today, we're going to take a look at this Roadmaster coiled cable for the Even Brake braking system. Now this is for use with an emergency breakaway system. This part is included with the Even Brake braking system. This can be used on trailer breakaway switches and other dead man switches. You can see it has a nice coil design.
Keeps the cable off the road, allows slack for cornering.Now this does extend to about eight feet and it will retract for storage. You notice on each end it has the carabiners, two of them total for attaching to one end to the breakaway switch, the other to the tow vehicle. But that should do it for the review on the Roadmaster coiled cable for the Even Brake braking system.

Replace the coiled breakaway cable of your supplemental braking system.Another good product. This one will work well with the breakaway switch.
Still holding up well, outside all the time on trailer under a roof. Has just the right amount of slack.
Carabiner is not nearly large enough to attach to anything on the back of my motorhome. For as much as this cost, can't I get a decent sized attachment?
Not to my lot

Hey Richard. I'm going to be reaching out to you to help out!
Sending a photo of our Jeep behind our Winnebago View with our Roadmaster Falcon tow bar. Great service and advice.

Great choice. Works perfectly
My experience with etrailer was good from the perspective of the cooperation and pleasantness. However, even though I was clear on the tow bar I had (Blue Ox) and the vehicle I was towing (2005 Dodge Dakota) when the tow package came and the shop I had installing it got to the end of the installation, it was discovered that the wrong pins were sent, i.e. they wouldn't lock in place - too short . At first we couldn't determine what the problem was, so I called etrailer back. Was told those were the correct pins. Finally called Blue Ox directly and the rep immediately told me (after I gave him the PN) that those were the wrong pins. Without me asking he offered and did send two replacement pins free of charge. They worked perfectly.
critical to have when towing especially when having to make sharp turns the coiled cable allows you that ability without locking down the brakes.

Red plastic covering has faded some, works great
Used this to replace the stranded breakaway cable on my fifth wheel I was always concerned the stranded cable would become tangled in something while towing. This coiled cable stays up off the floor and in-line with the breakaway control.
I have been very happy with the service and response from etrailer and staff. I highly recommend etrailer for RV and other merchandise. The items I have ordered are always of good quality.

It works fine. Thank you.
I'm extremely happy with this product so far! The stock takeaway cable was so long it drug on the ground and frayed it in half, so this was its replacement! Upon installation I had to lightly trim the plastic on the plunger that goes into the brakeaway cable box for the caribeaner to fit inside, but after 2 minutes with my pocket knife the caribeaner fit perfectly inside! I towed my pop up around town to air up the tires and get propane and I didn't have any issues with the new cable, but the true test is this weekend when I tow the pop up 2.5/3 hours away from home. I am very confident that this brakeaway cable will last and perform how it's supposed to! I'm a very happy customer!
I bought this cable to replace the cheesy OEM breakaway cable on my trailer. This one has plenty of uncoiled length that I won't worry about it pulling out when turning, but the coiled length is short enough to keep it from sagging and dragging. The included clips are very small, so I replaced them with some larger ones I had lying around the house so they'd fit what I'm clipping them onto.
exactly what I needed.Order delivered q uickly.
Very easy to navigate the web site. Great delivery times.
Excellent product to have as a backup!!!
Just what I needed
Excellent products, shipped as promised and arrived on time. I have installed all the products. Although it took me longer then a professional installer, I had little to no issues. The online installation videos for all the parts (which were attached to the online order status sheet) made it extremely easy to install. The videos were of a professional actually installing the equipment step by step. etrailer.com has a customer for life.
ETrailer was very easy to deal with. Their website showed an error in the shipping costs, an an eTrailer representative personally called me to explain what occurred, and to get my authorization for the correction. I appreciated the personal touch. The product arrived, and works as advertised. I will definitely deal with them again.
I ordered this cable as a backup for my current cable on my Roadmaster Supplemental Braking System. It was exactly what I was looking for and came quickly.
All the products I order from etrailer I like. That is why I ordered them. But what I really like is the service ethic of etrailer. An occasionally, when my order is confusing or a question about my address, I get a phone call. A PHONE CALL. Can be on Sunday evening or Saturday morning or during the week. What a service.
Well worth the cost. Better then a hanging emergency brake switch cable.
Customer service and timeliness of delivery were tremendous. It would help if the carabiner clips were a little bit bigger and more durable. The people at etrailer are amongst the best!
Product arrived very quickly and looks to be of great quality. This will be a lot easier to use that the standard cable that normally comes with the break away switch. It can't drag on the ground either, so this one will not get worn out.
Carabiner ends are too small to connect on my RV and too small to handle easily on the car end, but can simply be replaced with medium-sized carabiners.
High quality. Robust metal cable inside with vinyl coating. Strong little caribeners. I trust my camper with this brake cable.
Product was easy to install and appears to have weathered the elements. I cannot comment on how it has worked since it is an emergency brake cable, which (thankfully) I have not needed to use.
