Features to know about

Smooth Braking Performance: Hydraulic Actuation for Drum Brakes

Ever experienced that unnerving jolt when your trailer brakes don't sync up with your towing vehicle? The Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator is crafted specifically for hydraulic drum brakes, seamlessly activating your trailer's brakes as your vehicle decelerates for a smooth, controlled stop every time.

Rust-Free Durability: Aluminum Master Cylinder and Zinc Plating

Worried about corrosion shortening the life of your brake actuator? The Dexter DX7.5L features an aluminum master cylinder, which resists corrosion better than traditional cast steel, paired with zinc plating for maximum durability against harsh weather or saltwater environments.

Effortless Connection: Over-Center Latch Mechanism

Tired of struggling with frustrating coupler connections? The low-profile, over-center latch on this actuator simplifies hookup, only engaging when fully seated on a 2" hitch ball, ensuring a safe, secure connection without the hassle.

Versatile and Adaptable: Bolt-On Installation for Varied Applications

Got diverse trailers in your fleet? This bolt-on actuator supports load capacities up to 7,500 lbs and is compatible with a 3" x 4" straight tongue, making it ideal for agricultural, construction, marine, travel, and utility trailers.

Seamless Reversing: Free-backing Brake Compatibility

Reverse maneuvers shouldn’t be difficult! Though there's no reverse lockout, pairing this actuator with free-backing brakes allows for smooth reversing motion without triggering the brakes, making handling tight spots or parking stress-free.

Tailored Precision: Custom Fit with Various Configurations

Need a custom brake setup? Dexter’s innovative inner-member and outer-member design allows you to tailor your braking system to a wide range of applications, providing manufacturers and users with flexibility and adaptability for any trailer needs.

It is the right part and I got it fast thank you



by:

I ordered this surge brake hitch without the back up solenoid. Due to supply chain problems it was going to take 3 months to ship. Upon receiving it far ahead of schedule it had the solenoid included at no extra charge meaning that someone at etrailer expedited my order and kept me happy at etrailers expense. How can you top that for service?



by:

I’m very satisfied. I always check out etrailer for all my trailer needs and this time was no different. In under 2 hours by myself I changed out the old with the new ( pictures) and ready to bleed the brakes. I always let people know to contact etrailer with there needs. Thanks
