Features to know about

Primed and Ready: Built for Welding

This actuator comes with a primed finish, giving you a solid base that’s ready for welding onto a 50-degree A-frame trailer. You don’t have to strip off paint or coatings before starting. Once it’s mounted, the primer helps protect the heavy-duty steel construction from corrosion until you’re ready to paint it to match your trailer. It’s a clean, straightforward setup that saves time during installation.

Flexible Setup: 8" Adjustable Channel with 3 Positions

The built-in 8" adjustable channel makes it easy to dial in your coupler height so your trailer sits level. With three mounting positions, you can fit almost any coupler style—standard ball coupler, lunette ring, or clevis attachment (each sold separately). The channel uses a standard 3" width, so it pairs easily with compatible hardware like the Bulldog or Demco couplers.

Consistent Braking Power: Composite Master Cylinder with Large Reservoir

The composite master cylinder is made from glass-reinforced nylon that resists rust and corrosion. It’s built for long life and smooth performance with hydraulic drum brakes. The large reservoir gives you more brake fluid capacity, cutting down on refills and helping prevent air from entering the system. An automotive-style diaphragm cap keeps everything sealed, reducing the chance of fluid contamination.

Smooth Operation: Acetal Copolymer Liner and Built-In Breakaway

Inside, an acetal copolymer liner keeps the actuator moving freely as it telescopes in and out under braking. The built-in breakaway system adds peace of mind by applying the brakes automatically if the trailer ever separates from the tow vehicle. Together they help your setup stop smoothly and reliably every time you tow.

Heavy Load Capability: 12,500 lbs GTW Rating

With a gross towing weight rating of 12,500 lbs and 1,250 lbs maximum tongue weight, this surge-type actuator delivers dependable performance on demanding hauls. It’s designed for use with hydraulic drum brakes and gives you the solid braking control needed for heavy trailers without relying on electronic components or external power sources.
