This zinc-plated actuator delivers solid, reliable braking for disc systems up to 12,500 lbs. It uses a surge-type hydraulic setup that automatically applies pressure to the master cylinder as your trailer moves forward during deceleration. The telescoping action creates a smooth, synchronized stop without jerking or delay, giving consistent braking control whether you’re loaded down or running light.
The heavy-duty steel body is zinc plated, giving it the corrosion resistance needed for long-term use in wet or salty environments. Even when it’s exposed to the elements, the finish helps protect against rust and pitting so your actuator keeps working season after season without the usual wear that ends lesser units.
A unique internal roller design helps the actuator telescope with less resistance, so it compresses smoothly in a straight line. That not only improves stopping response but also reduces wear on internal parts. It’s especially useful when you’re hauling over uneven terrain or making tight turns, since it resists bending and binding that can throw off braking performance.
Installation is simple thanks to its bolt-on design for standard 3" wide channel tongues. The pre-drilled pattern matches common setups, so you can mount it securely without drilling new holes. Once in place, the integrated 2-5/16" heavy-duty coupler is ready for your hitch ball, making hookup straightforward and dependable.
For extra security on the road, this actuator includes a built-in breakaway system that activates the trailer brakes automatically if it ever becomes disconnected. It’s a simple but critical safeguard that gives peace of mind every time you tow.

Thanks for your review of your Titan actuator coupler T4747200, while the C-clamp works, there is a safer way to deactivate the surge brakes on your coupler. You can use an item called a reverse lock out. This will get signal from your tow vehicle when it is in reverse and will NOT apply the brakes on the trailer allowing you to back up. For your Model 6 actuator you can use the T4748800 lock out solenoid, and you may want a cover like T4836800183 as a solenoid shield that will help protect the reverse lock out solenoid. You will need to make sure that the solenoid is connected to the tow vehicle reverse light circuit, so if you have a 7-way on the trailervehicle then you would need to splice in and connect to the correct line. I have included a link to one of our help articles that shows the various locations of the reverse line depending on how the trailer is wired. If you have a 4-way flat, you can convert it to a 5-way taht will splice into the vehicle side reverse wiring, and the kit HM47890 includes both the trailer and vehicle side wiring harness. Another option for wiring the vehicle is to use a 5-Way adapter like part 47515 which will allow you to leave the 4-Way wiring connector on your vehicle and add the reverse light circuit to the adapter when towing this trailer.
