Video Transcript for Dexter Axle Trailer Brakes BP01-110 Review

Today we're gonna take a look at the replacement trailer brake magnet kit for Dexter and Hayes Alcove 10 inch trailer brakes. This magnet kit will allow you to replace the worn out magnet on your 10 inch trailer brakes, helps you save money and time, because it's better than having to replace the whole brake assembly. This part is designed to work with the following 3500 pound axle brake assemblies. It fits the Dexter 10 inch by 2 1/2 inch brake assemblies, part number 23-26 and 23-27. It fits the Dexter 10 inch by 2 1/4 inch never adjust brake assemblies, part number 23-468 and 23-469, and the Hayes Alcove 10 inch by 2 1/2 inch brake assembly, part number 60202803 and 60202703. As you can see here, it has a nice oval magnet design it.

This increases the efficiency of your brakes and will help extend the life. The sleeve, right here, you'll notice, this will protect the wires from any abrasion. That's the part that goes through the backing plates so if there's any movement you don't want those wires to be cut into. Now, it does the two wires connected so they do need to be connected when you install this. One goes to your brake feed, one goes to a ground, and they're both green wires, so either wire can be used for either function. This part includes everything shown here on the table, the magnet itself, the two springs, and the hold down clip.

A few dimensions on the magnet, just to give you the length of it, from one end to the other is right at 3 5/8 inches long. It's going to be 2 1/8 inches wide, and the overall height of it is right at about 7/8 inches tall. That should do it for the review on the placement trailer brake magnet kit for Dexter and Hayes Alcove 10 inch trailer brakes.

Great service, great selection, great price, and prompt shipping. Bulletproof.



by:

As usual, shipping was prompt and product arrived quickly. Fit was perfect. Never had a bad experience with e-trailer.



by:

Real live customer service agent very helpful in determining the correct magnets for my particular hubs. Ordered late in the afternoon (standard shipping) and received shipment THE NEXT DAY!! Simply outstanding... Period.



by:

Excellent
the grease was used on the
trailer, it looks good but only miles will tell.
I am very happy with the service and phone call from the company. The call was to clarify my order. This is five orders over a few years.



by:

Easy to install. Perfect fit. The only recommendation I would make to etrailer.com would be to include the grommet where the wires exit the brake housing. The old grommets were damaged and not serviceable.



by:

Their web site made finding the exact item(s) I needed very easy. The price was fair and the order came very quickly. I own several trailers and will use eTrailer again in the future if needed.



by:

Every item I ordered worked and fit exactly as I had hoped it would. Prices and shipping was top notch and will definitely buy from e-trailer again.



by:

Parts were received early...quicker than expected. Customer service is great, very helpful and friendly. Got the right part, waiting for decent weather to install new parts. Etrailers is the only place I buy my parts, also refer my friends and relatives. Great place to buy from, Thanks again.



by:

Item received quickly and easily installed. Only problem was that a part that should be included, the strain relief bushing, is not . This small item is specifically mentioned in the installation instructions as a must replace component and proved impossible to procure locally.



by:

Magnets are installed and brakes are now working fine. The Q&A on your website was particularly useful in this instance because there was some question as to which part number would be the right one for my application. Etrailer offers more than just parts! Thanks, Etrailer!



by:

Product arrived as scheduled great packaging, I installed both new brake magnets and now trailer brakes are both working as they should which should help spare my truck brakes with the extra help.



by:

At a sale price cheaper than a no name locally sourced magnet, the savings was a no brainer. The shipping was fast and communication from etrailer is top notch. The product itself is good quality, pig tail plenty long to splice wherever is convenient, the spring is actually larger in diameter and stiffer than OEM which I count as a plus. It pays to do business with etrailer, you WILL be satisfied with your experience.



by:

Product was good. I was bummed to find out after I purchased these that I could have purchased and entire electronic brake assembly with magnets and brake pads i for not too much more :( My bad for not doing a little more searching before purchasing.



by:

I would never give a review, I have always felt it was a waste of time and I never thought it mattered. I have changed my mind. I ordered some parts for my trailer from an competitor, only because I went to the first site i found on my web search. I was given a good product and I cant complain about their service. What I want you to know that when I had to buy some more parts to complete my project, I had a friend recommend this site, not only did they beat the price on the same parts, I was given great CUSTOMER SERVICE. I ordered the parts and received an email to make sure I was happy with my order and if I wasn't, I should call them and they would make it right. In this day and age, I'm all about spending my money with those that will care about my business transactions with them. If they don't show me that they care about me. I simply wont spend my money with them again, and I would never recommend them to anyone. I was extremely happy to spend my money with these guys, as I like when a business follows up with me when I buy their product. I had a larger order that came in two packages. One package arrived a day before I expected. I called about the remaining package, thinking they messed up my order. I spoke with a very nice lady that explained that the other package was due to be delivered on time and that if it wasn't there when I expected, I could call back and they would handle it. I love it when a business that I spend my money want to make sure I'm satisfied with their service. That very Idea of customer service makes me a customer for life.



by:

I found etrailer's website easy to navigate and customer service was excellent for an online company. The parts that I purchased fit perfectly. I used youtube to watch the installation video that etrailer put up. Will use them again. All the parts fit as they should and the job went smoothly.



by:

Bought a new second had trailer.
Wasn't
sure of the axle make and model.
Stripped out the bearings and found the grease seals rubber lip very hard.
Called E Trailer and Phyllis was excellent in working with me to identify the correct seals but with a double lip.
Ordered and received very smoothly-- as promised.
I am going top fit them tomorrow but have already offered up the OD to the hub and the ID to the spindle and I know that I have the correct seals.
Seals look to be good quality and I expect them to be fine.



by:

I bought 4 brake magnets for the RV and they work great. The original magnets each drew different ohm numbers. Two would lock up . I replaced them with your magnets and it brakes consistently every time now. A real easy job too.



by:

Great price. Exact fit and quick shipping. Thank you!

The products are great! I refurbished an old Coleman pop up camper and the parts allowed me to upgrade the brakes and drums to better than new. Etrailer is a great source to get trailer parts at a great price. Thank you



by:

Service was great and part was as described. After replacing these it did not solve my brake problem. It was a short in the wire going through the axel. Check that first if your brakes are not working. I replaced the wire an all was good.



by:

The wires on the old magnet broke off right at the magnet so it wasn't repairable.
This was exactly what we needed, shipping was well priced and quick.

Wow a year later? Weather has been so poor that we dont even have the camper yet. Magnet worked great, Ive bought a couple from etrailer now and will continue to use etrailer for smaller maintenance items.



by:

My AL-KO axle has the text "AL KO 08 05" stamped into the brake shoes in the hub with 10x2.25 brakes and 4.5 inch bolt circle.
Its not exactly the same as the original AL-KO magnet on my trailer - but from all I could tell a perfect fit. The lead wires are plenty long to reach outside the hub before splicing.
This magnet is just what I needed to replace the magnet who's wires wire sheared off at the backing plate when a tire failed. The reasonable price was nice too!



by:

Still working. It is almost never the magnet that wears, but the wires inside the drum that always seem to wear thru and short on some moving part. Trailer brakes what can I say, the design is an after thought. Like when the cable guy runs the wire in your house...



by:

Had some difficulty installing until I figured out that removing the entire brake assembly including the backing plate allows bench top installation vs trying to install on the trailer. The magnet works as expected and I now have four wheel brakes instead of three!



by:

i ordered an electric brake controller, and it worked perfectly. It came in the time frame as ordered, and was exactly what I had ordered. I took it to a repair shop and the mechanics installed it and, voila, I had brakes!

Im not sure. I traded that trailer in on a new bigger one, so I cant comment for sure, but it was working perfectly when I traded it in.



by:

All 3 items I ordered have worked as expected. It is great you had everything in stock. This makes choosing ETrailer my first choice.

See what our Experts say about this Dexter Accessories and Parts

  • Does it Matter Which Wire is Used on a Trailer Brake Magnet # BP01-110 as the Positive
    No, you can use either wire as a positive or a negative wire. As long as current is traveling through the magnet in either direction this Trailer Brake Magnet, # BP01-110, will function. I attached a video on trailer brake magnet replacement for you to check out also.

  • Replacement Magnets for Dexter 2,900 lb Trailer Axles

  • How to Know When Trailer Brake Magnets are Worn Out and Need Replacing
    Are there any visible signs of wear on the magnets like exposed windings then that would indicate they need replacing. Magnets can go bad without showing visible signs of wear though. To see how to troubleshoot them check out the help article I attached. For replacement magnets for the Dexter 10 by 2-1/4 inch assemblies you would want the part # BP01-110. As bad as your assemblies sound you might just want to replace both assemblies. For the left hand side you would want the part # AKEBRK-35L-SA...

  • Issue Having To Turn The Gain All The Way Up On My Brake Controller For Brakes To Engage
    Hey Harold, There are a few different causes of that issue. Since you just replaced the magnets I am going to guess that it is an issue of improper adjustment of the brakes. You are most likely going to need to re adjust those brakes manually, or if they are self adjust needed to get them going again. I have attached an article showing step by step how to adjust your brakes. Since your brake controller was working before, I am going to eliminate the chance of a faulty controller and...

  • Why Would Trailer Brake Magnet Get Hot that is Parked and Not Used
    That is really odd! Especially if its only one brake magnet. I would assume that there is a short from the camper battery positive wire circuit to the brake output but even that should affect all of the brake magnets. I would start by testing to see if the wires that run to the brake magnet have voltage on them with a circuit tester like the part # PTW2993 and go from there. I would suspect that there is a short between a battery charge circuit and the assemblies.

  • Replacement Brake Assemblies and Hubs for 2017.5 Lance 1685
    Hey Brad, thanks for all of the info on what you have. I can tell your magnets are basically toast, the brake pads look thin, and your hub/drums look like they are in bad shape too so your best option is to go with new assemblies left and right with the part # 23-468-469 and then new hub/drums too which for that you'd need the part # 84546UC3-EZ. This is going to be the longterm solution that will take care of everything for a very long time.

    Dexter did acquire AL-KO axles and the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly for 3,500-lb Axles - 10" Diameter - 5 on 4-1/2 # 84546UC3 is the full assembly replacement. If you just wan to replace the bearings and seal then you will want # L44649, # L68149, and # 58846. For your brake assemblies, you will use the Replacement Trailer Brake Magnet Kit for Dexter and Hayes / AL-KO 10" Trailer Brakes # BP01-110. Then for the brake shoes you either use the 10" x 2-1/4" Electric Brake Shoe/Lining...

  • Do 4400-lb Electric Drum Brakes Use Same Mounting Pattern as 3500-lb Brakes
    All of our 10 x 2-1/4-inch electric drum brakes for 3500-lb axles use a 4-bolt mounting pattern and this is the same as the 4400-lbs brakes we offer such as Dexter self-adjusting brakes # K23-478-479 and standard brakes # K23-462-463-00.

  • Replacement Brake Drums and Brake Assembly Parts for Lance 1685 Travel Trailer
    Given the wheel bolt pattern and the 8-247 that's cast into your existing brake drums, you have a 3500 lb axle. Assuming you have E-Z Lube spindles with the grease zerks in the end, you'd want to use the # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K hub/drums you looked at. If you have standard spindles, use # 84546UC3. At the very least, you'd want to replace your brake magnets, if they've got grooves worn into them as they won't get a good contact with the new drums for effective braking. If your brake assemblies...

  • Replacement Magnet For Dexter 3,500 lb Electric Brakes
    Having a significantly heavier side of the trailer could cause some additional wear, yes, as it would be working a bit harder, but unless it was quite a lot then it shouldn't be a big issue. As for grooves, there should not be any type of grooves it should be smooth. As for the replacement magnet for your 3,500 lb Dexter electric brakes the correct part is the Replacement Trailer Brake Magnet Kit # BP01-110.

  • Replacement Parts for AL-KO 10 x 2-1/4 Inch Electric Trailer Brakes
    It can be a challenge some times to determine the correct replacement parts for a given trailer or brake assembly. I did some checking and brake magnet # BP01-110 is correct for Hayes/AL-KO 10 x 2-1/4 inch brakes. To be honest I am not certain what the wire color indicates since magnets now pretty much all use the same wire color for both wires. I was under the impression that it helped identify the year range brake assembly that magnet goes with. However the replacement actuator arms...

  • Solution for 1978 Prowler Travel Trailer with Bad Trailer Magnets
    I wish we had an easy solution, but we don't have magnets that will fit your application and we don't have a way to replace just the brake assemblies either as since what you have is welded directly to the trailer axle. So it will end up being easiest if you look into replacing the axle you have since none of the components of it are replaceable. All is not lost as I can help if you are interested in upgrading your axles. When you upgrade your axles you can update your brakes and hubs...

    For your Dexter 10 inch trailer brake assembly, you don't need round magnets to replace your round magnets. You simply need the strength and rating for the 3,500 lb assemblies. I recommend the Replacement Magnet Kit for 10" Electric Trailer Brake Assemblies - 3,500 lbs # AKBRKR-M10 or if you want the brand name the Replacement Trailer Brake Magnet Kit for Dexter and Hayes / AL-KO 10" Trailer Brakes # BP01-110.

    We do offer replacement magnets for older Hayes electric brake assemblies but none of these are suitable for brakes produced before the mid-1980s. For reference I have linked four such magnets. The good news is that we do offer complete brake assemblies that are not much more in cost than replacement magnets alone.

  • Troubleshooting Poor Trailer Braking with AL-KO Electric Brake Assemblies
    You are correct, the recommended brake magnet for AL-KO electric brake assemblies is the Trailer Brake Magnet, # BP01-110. It is about one tenth of an inch thicker than the brake magnet, # BP01-115. The brake magnet, # BP01-115, will fit in the AL-KO brake assemblies because the mounting locations and dimensions are similar, but it was designed for Dexter 10 inch x 2-1/4 inch brake assemblies only. This is most likely what is causing your problem since you have already tried adjusting...

    First, thank you for your recent purchases from etrailer. The Dexter brakes you selected, 10- x 2-1/4-inch Dexter manual-adjust electric drum brakes # 23-26 and # 23-27, are the only width size in a 10-inch diameter. These are intended for a 3500-lb axle. The brake magnet coil, or armature, is intended to contact the brake drum's inside surface at all times. It is normal for the brake magnet to extend outwards away from the trailer a bit and beyond the edge of the brake shoes. This is...

    Your Northwoods Arctic Fox 32 5th wheel probably has a gross weight around 16K so it probably uses two Dexter 8K axles. This is a popular axle for 5th wheels and we offer suitable 8K-rated brake sets like Dexter's Self-Adjusting Electric Drum Brakes # K23-532-533-00. These USA-made brakes use a 4-bolt mounting flange and they fit with trailer wheels that are 16-inch diameter and larger. These brakes fit hub/drums that are 12 x 3-3/8-inches and the mounting hardware is included. A video...

  • Brake Installation on 1960s Custom Trailer
    It is normal for an electric brake assembly to put drag on the hub. When brake tension is adjusted properly the hub should have slight drag when the wheel is rotated. You should both hear and feel this slight drag. Hadco makes many different series of hub/drum assembly. If you have their 84 Series, these use bearing set 25580 and LM67048. We do offer hubs that fit this bearing set and these can be seen on the provided link. The thing is that all of these hubs are 12- x 2-inch diameter,...
