Note: This actuator is compatible with the Demco manual reverse lockout kit (DM5939). If you choose not to add the reverse lockout, it is recommended that you equip your trailer with free-backing brakes so that you can drive in reverse without the actuator triggering your trailer's brakes.
When you apply the brakes in your tow vehicle, deceleration occurs and momentum pushes your trailer toward the rear of your vehicle. With surge brake systems, the hydraulic actuator is triggered as your trailer moves forward, once your tow vehicle starts to slow down. When this happens, the actuator contracts, applying force to its master cylinder. This in turn supplies the necessary hydraulic pressure to engage your trailer's brakes.
eZ-Latch Coupler
The coupler portion of this trailer brake actuator features a simple-to-use latching mechanism known as the eZ-Latch. With this mechanism, hooking up is as easy as dropping the coupler over your trailer hitch ball. The latch does not need to be tugged or manually activated to allow the ball into the coupler socket, nor does it have to be secured in place. Just make sure that the coupler is properly lined up with the ball when you lower it, and the rest is automatic.
Sturdy, Corrosion-Resistant Construction
Made of sturdy steel, this hydraulic trailer brake actuator features a durable zinc coating that is designed to limit rust and corrosion. This zinc coat has a 200-hour salt spray rating. In addition, the composite master cylinder is made of corrosion-resistant glass-reinforced nylon to further ensure durability.

everything worked just as advertised. installation was pretty striate forward. I had to make a few changed to hydraulic lines but all worked fine.

See what our Experts say about this Demco Brake Actuator
- Trailer Tongue Length Required to Install Demco Hydraulic Brake ActuatorI reached out to a representative of Demco who told me that the outer case of the Demco Hydraulic Brake Actuator # DM8669113 needs 18" of space on the trailer tongue to bolt on. Additionally, you will need between 2" and 4" of clearance behind the actuator to get the brake line attached to the master cylinder. You will need only 2" if you have a pre-bent brake line/hose with a 90 degree fitting or 4" if you have a straight hose or hard line that needs to make the 90 degree bend.
view full answer... - Dimensions of Demco Hydraulic Brake Acutator with DropThe Demco Hydraulic Brake Actuator # DM8669113 will hang over the sides of the tube with the mounting plates 2-1/8" on each side and the channel of the actuator is 15-1/4" long. The overall dimensions on the coupler are 7-3/4" tall x 29" long x 4-1/2" wide. I've attached a photo with the dimensions to this answer.

- Electric Reverse Lock Out Solenoid Recommendation for DA91 Demco ActuatorYes, all you need to add an electric lockout to your Demco DA91 Actuator part # DM8669113 is the solenoid part # DM5404.
view full answer... - How to Fix Swaying Demco DM8669113 Kar Kaddy SS Tow DollyDemco doesn't sell the Acetyl copolymer lining used in their # DM8669113 brake actuator as a separate item. I spoke with my Demco representative who said that the lining wouldn't have any influence on a swaying # DM9713045 Kar Kaddy SS car dolly. The lining's purpose is to allow the brake actuator to move smoothly back and forth so it wouldn't have any affect on the tow dolly swaying. Is this occurring with the tow dolly empty? Demco tells me that when towing empty, you'll need to insert...
view full answer... - Is There a Disc Brake Trailer Actuator with Manual LockoutThe Demco Hydraulic Brake Actuator part # DM8669113 for 2" or part # DM8758811 for 2-5/16" are the only disc brake actuators we have that can be manually locked out using the Manual Reverse Lockout Kit for Demco Hydraulic Trailer Brake Actuators part # DM5939. They both have a 8,000 lb weight capacity and come with the eZ-Latch coupler mechanism so they should work well for you.
view full answer... - Replacement for a TDE LP8500 Boat Trailer AcuatorWe don't offer an 8500 lb rated surge coupler, but we might have options that would work for you. If the GVWR (weight of trailer plug boat) is 8000 lbs or less, I'd recommend the Demco item # DM8669113 if your trailer has disc brakes or item # DM8669112 for a drum brake aactuator.
view full answer... - Using an Electric Trailer Brake Controller With Boat Trailer Hydraulic BrakesThe 2012 BMW X5 has a rated towing capacity of 6000-lbs according to my research and for this vehicle we offer several Class III hitches (viewable on the link provided) that share this same maximum towing capacity, along with a tongue weight limit of 600-lbs. Note that these hitches do not fit the M model. You'll want to be sure that your fully-loaded boat/trailer does not exceed the towing or tongue weight capacities of either the vehicle or the hitch (your hitch should have a sticker...

If you are having problems with your brakes dragging and overheating then either your disc brakes/caliper need to be cleaned, your breakaway cable has been activated, or the internal components of your actuator are needing replacement. If you check your brakes/calipers and breakaway cable isn't activated then the only internal components that...

- What Actuator is Needed for Hydraulic Disc Brakes with 1,500 psi Rating RequirementGreat question! You are correct that disc brakes, like part # K2HR526D, for your 5,200 - 6,000 lb trailer (or for any trailer for that matter) require a surge brake actuator with at least a 1,500 psi rating. The good news is that all of our hydraulic actuators that are designed for disc brakes, like the Demco # DM62VR, are rated for at least 1,500 psi so you're good to go on that end. Since you're only using the boat for fresh water you don't have to be as concerned about corrosion, but...
