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 actuator is triggered as your trailer moves forward while the tow vehicle slows. The actuator telescopes, applying force to its master cylinder, which in turn supplies the necessary hydraulic pressure to engage the trailer's brakes.

Electric reverse lockout with solenoid is automatically activated when the tow vehicle is shifted into reverse. To use this feature, you must have a 5-pole flat, 6-way round or 7-pole wiring harness.

I replaced a twenty four year old coupler with the Titan T4750820.
My previous system had a separate coupler, hydraulic pack, and battery box. I could not keep up with the effects of salt water and time. It became a maintenance and safety nightmare.
The installation of a titan hydraulic coupler and a Tekonsha P3 brake controller has restored my confidence in my braking system.
The staff at etrailer.com was first class in answer all my questions and making sure I got the right gear the first time.




by:

Love the coupler, heavy, built well, nice unit. I only wish e-trailer would of notified me that it was on back order prior to taking my money. Ended up moving a vacation back about a month because of it.




by:

The latch is a pain, it's always getting stuck. It is such a pain that I just ordered the Demco. Save yourself the headache and buy the better product from the get go.

  • Weight of the Titan Zinc-Plated Brake Actuator T4750820
    The Titan Zinc-Plated Brake Actuator # T4750820 that you referenced weighs 52 lbs which translates to 23.5 kilograms.

  • How Does an Electric Reverse Lockout Solenoid on a Titan Coupler Get Wired
    On the reverse lockout solenoid on Titan coupler # T4750820, one wire will need to be grounded to the trailer frame. The other wire needs to connect to the reverse light circuit on the trailer side connector. When the vehicle is placed in reverse it powers the solenoid and will not let fluid back to the brakes allowing you to back the trailer without the brakes engaging.

  • Recommended Surge Brake Actuator for Tandem Axle Boat Trailer
    A surge brake actuator will need to be based off of the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of the trailer with the boat loaded. As long as the boat and trailer do not weigh more than 12,500 lbs I recommend using the Titan Zinc-Plated Brake Actuator part # T4750820. The Titan actuator will bolt onto a 3" wide straight tongue trailer, fits a 2-5/16" hitch ball, and has an electric reverse lockout solenoid. The actuator has a zinc plating for corrosion resistance as well as an integrated...

  • Replacement Coupler on Trailer for GDC-100
    We don't have replacement parts for a GDC 100 actuator but we do have replacements for it that would work great like the # T4750820. This is a higher capacity disc brake actuator with an electric lock out.

  • Are Replacement Parts for the GDC-100 Available
    I may have a solution for you, but we don't have replacement parts for a GDC-100 actuator. It looks like the GDC-100 is a heavier duty actuator designed to work with disc brakes, so the # T4750820 would be a good option to use as a replacement. This is a higher capacity disc brake actuator with an electric lock out, so it's ideal for a boat trailer that has disc brakes..

  • Dimensions Of Titan Zinc-Plated Brake Actuator w/ Electric Lockout T4750820
    I had our warehouse measure the Titan Zinc-Plated Brake Actuator w/ Electric Lockout - Disc - 2-5/16" Ball - 12,500 lbs # T4750820 you mentioned and it is 26-1/2" long, 5" deep not including the mounting bracket, 8" deep including the mounting bracket, 4" wide at the narrowest point, and 6" wide at the widest point which is the heads of the bolts on each side. I included a diagram of these measurements for you to take a look at.

  • How to Install the Backup Solenoid on Titan Disc Brake Actuators
    The Fitting in the back of your actuator, # T4750820, will need to be removed to install the Solenoid Valve for Titan Brake Actuators, # T4748800. I have posted a photo showing this fitting. Once the fitting is removed you will install the solenoid valve directly into the back of the master cylinder, see second photo, then attach the brake line from the trailer directly to the solenoid. The fitting that was removed will not be needed.

  • Is Titan 10,000 Pound Brake Actuator Compatible with Kodiak Stainless Steel Disc Brakes
    For your brake actuator to be compatible with your Kodiak stainless steel brakes, the actuator will need to be a disc brake actuator. Kodiak only makes disc brakes. If your actuator is a drum brake actuator, not a disc brake actuator, it will not be compatible with the Kodiak disc brakes. If your Titan actuator is made for disc brakes, it will work well with your Kodiak brakes. The Replacement Master Cylinder Assembly # T4749501042 is only compatible with Titan Model 10 and Model 20 disc...

  • Troubleshooting a Leaking Reverse Lock Out Solenoid
    Over tightening the fitting can cause it to never seal again properly. Your best option would be to make sure you have the line perfectly square in the fitting as you tighten it. Flexible line will have to be used. I attached an install video for the Solenoid part # T4748800.

  • Replacement Titan Brake Actuator for Titan 3241639
    We've checked the part number you gave us before and the replacement for it is the part # T4750820 which is for disc brakes. This one does come with a reverse lock out solenoid. If it has rust all over it I'd consider just replacing the entire thing and starting over with everything new. If you can get me the capacity of your axles and the bolt patterns I can help you pick out stainless steel brake components that won't rust as well.

The Titan coupler is rated for 12,500 lbs just like the Tie Down and it uses a 2-5/16" hitch ball. It is also rated for use on disc brakes. If you have a model with lock solenoid or wish to add this feature then you would simply use part # T4750820. There should also be a set of holes on the new coupler which matches what you have on...

  • Recommended Surge Brake Actuator For 7800lb Tandem Axle Boat Trailer W/ Disc Brakes
    You would have no problems what so ever going with an 8000lb rated coupler since you are only at 7800lbs, and going with a 12500lb coupler would cause a little more jerky braking due to the different size springs used for the trailer to apply the brakes. With that said I recommend the Titan Zinc-Plated Brake Actuator w/ Lockout Shield - Disc - 2-5/16" Ball - 8,000 lbs # T4747210 which is rated for 8000lbs and is designed for disc brakes like what is on your trailer.

  • Advantages of Manual vs. Electric Reverse Lockout on Actuator Coupler
    A trailer actuator-coupler with an electric reverse lockout feature, such as Titan # T4750820, allows you to reverse your trailer without having to get out of the vehicle to first engage a manual lockout lever. The internal solenoid in the actuator takes care of this automatically when you shift the vehicle into reverse; that reverse light signal is the trigger that tells the actuator to block the flow of fluid through the brake lines. Blocking the flow of brake fluid allows reversing the...
