Features to know about

Upgrade Worn Brakes for Better Performance: Slip-On 12" Disc Kit for 6,000-lb Axles

If your current brakes are dragging or losing bite, this DeeMaxx Disc Brake Kit is a solid upgrade. The 12" slip-on rotors fit over standard idler hubs and are held in place with your existing wheel bolts, so you don’t have to replace the entire hub-and-rotor assembly. Ceramic brake pads and stainless steel pistons deliver strong, smooth braking that stays consistent mile after mile.

Protect Against Rust and Corrosion: Maxx Coating Withstands Over 1,000 Hours of Salt Spray

Salt, water, winter roads, and humidity can ruin unprotected metal fast. The Maxx coating on these rotors, calipers, and brackets offers superior corrosion resistance—lasting more than 1,000 hours in salt spray testing. Drainage holes in the hat section help water drain quickly to further reduce corrosion buildup.

Consistent Braking Under Load: Vented Rotors Shed Heat Fast

When brakes overheat, they lose stopping power. The vented rotor design on this kit helps air flow freely through the rotor to disperse heat quickly and prevent brake fade. DeeMaxx even built in extra drainage holes to improve ventilation beyond standard vented rotors. This means smoother stops and longer pad life even on long downhill grades.

Easy DIY Install and Maintenance: Laser-Etched Caliper Instructions

This kit is designed for simple installation at home. The rotors slip right onto your existing hubs, and the mounting brackets bolt up without fuss. Each caliper includes laser-etched instructions showing how to bleed the brakes—so you always have the info you need when it’s time for maintenance. The kit includes all assemblies needed to upgrade one axle: two slip-on rotors, calipers, and brackets.

Built Strong for Long Service Life: Automotive-Grade Construction With 7-Year Warranty

Made with high-quality materials tested to SAE J2681 automotive standards, these brakes are built for reliability in real towing conditions. The system fits 6,000-lb axles with a 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern and 1/2" wheel bolts. Backed by a 7-year warranty, this kit delivers dependable stopping power and lasting performance season after season.

Awesomeness product! Easy to install! Thank you!

Works great makes me feel safe.

The parts themselves are great, but the packaging was AWFUL. A big box with two rotors in it, with loose calipers and pads banging around inside with no additional packaging material to cushion these parts. Disappointed in the etrailer customer service team, who passed the blame to the shippers. I'm sorry, but the shippers didn't package these...etrailer did.

Everything about this order went extremely well. Rotors and brakes are a major improvement of the standard equipment that came with Venture trailer. Simple to install and time will tell on longevity.

Yamaha Kodiak
DeeMaxx parts seem to last longer in our saltwater than the Kodiak. I had both until the Kodiaks locked up. I bought this set to replace the Kodiaks that were a couple years newer than the Deemaxx.

This particular combination was back ordered. Trevor kept me informed all the way through till it was delivered to my house. It was great working with him.

I previously purchased Deemax rotors, calipers with pads and wouldn’t fit my mounting brackets on my venture trailer. I called Stacy at customer service at etrailer and she worked with me and my issues to return the previous shipment (awaiting credit) . She had me buy 2 sets of the brake kits by Deemax which is for 4 wheels of rotors, calipers with pads and mounting brackets and they are great . The brakes and rotors on my trailer were shot, rusted beyond repair and I’ve started to tear them out and replace them all , the rusted bolts are they worst I’ve dealt with- see the photo for the look of the new rotors , bracket and still installing calipers.

Do you have a question about this Trailer Brake?
  • Parts Needed To Convert From Electric Drum Brakes To Hydraulic Disc Brakes
    Hey Shawn, The first thing to check is going to be what bearings and grease seal fit your axle's spindle. You can remove a hub and check the bearings and seal to see if the part numbers are still stamped onto them but you're most likely need to measure the spindle. Using a caliper # PTW80157 you'll measure points B, C, and D from the diagram below to determine the inner diameters of these components. You can measure the bore hole for the hub (also shown in diagram) to get the outer diameters....

  • Parts Needed for Disc Brake Conversion on 2018 Grand Design Imagine 2970RL
    Hello Terry; your Imagine 2970RL uses a 4,400 lb axle according to the Grand Design parts site. 4,400 lb axles are now obsolete so you will likely have to swap axles if you want to add disc brakes. Right now you have a 4,400 lb hub/drum with a 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern. If you can find a 4,400 lb idler hub with a 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern you could use the DeeMaxx Disc Brake Kit # DE82FR which is a slip-on rotor. We only have a hub and drum assembly left for 4.4k axles so unfortunately, I...

  • Does The DeeMaxx Disc Brake Kit DE82FR Come With Brake Pads?

  • Replacement Disc Brake Rotors and Hubs for a 2015 Road King Boat Trailer
    Hey Jerry. There's no database that shows me what parts are on your 2015 Road King boat trailer and their website wasn't much help either. There's way too many options to take an educated guess. The DeeMaxx Disc Brake Kit item # DE82FR you were looking at, are slip on rotors that install over an idler hub. This looks like a pretty common setup for Road King trailers. The item # DE54VR would be better for a boat trailer though. If you're wanting new disc braking hubs with the lug bolts...

  • Will DeeMax Disc Brake Kit DE82FR Fit 2023 Cherokee Alpha Wolf 30DBH-L
    Hey Ken, yes based on what you mentioned having on your 2023 Cherokee Alpha Wolf 30DBH-L the DeeMaxx Disc Brake Kit part # DE82FR would fit and work great. Do you have disc brakes currently and need a replacement setup or are you converting to disc brakes?

  • Can 5th Wheel Trailer With 6,000 lb Lippert Axles Change to Disc Brakes
    Hi Jacob, Yes, you can switch to disc brakes on your 5th wheel with 6,000 lb Lippert axles. I suppose you can go to idler hubs and then get slip-on brakes but you're much better off going with a full disc brake kit as it's better quality and designed to work together. But since you asked directly about idler hubs you can do that with Dexter Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 6,000-lb E-Z Lube Axles - 6 on 5-1/2 - Galvanized # 8-213-51UC1-EZ and DeeMaxx Disc Brake Kit - 12" Rotor # DE82FR.

  • Disc Brake Rotors For 15 Inch Wheels With 6 Lugs For Ranger Boat Trailer
    Hi Jim, For a set of disc brake rotors, calipers, and brake pads for your 15 inch wheels with 6 lugs what you can use is the DeeMaxx Disc Brake Kit # DE82FR. These will slip over your 6-bolt idler hubs and give you the disc brakes you're looking for, just keep in mind they are for a 5-bolt brake mounting flange like # 4-44-1 so you're going to want to ensure that's the same mounting flange you have on your trailer.

  • Comparing Maxx and Stainless Steel DeeMaxx Disc Brake Kits
    The DeeMaxx Disc Brake Kit # DE82FR with the Maxx coating has a salt spray rating of over 1,000 hours while the DeeMaxx Disc Brake Kit # DE54VR with the Stainless construction isn't rated for salt spray, but when I spoke with the owner he said the Coast Guard has used them for 13 years and never has had an issue with rust, so it definitely sounds like it's worth it. If you want the best of both worlds then check out the Disc Brake Kit # DE22FR. This comes with stainless calipers and then...

  • Replacement Disc Brake Kit for 2014 EZ Loader Boat Trailer
    Thank you for providing that information. That is an EZ Loader custom trailer that uses # L68149 inner and # L44649 outer bearings. If you're looking for a hub/rotor assembly you can use the # KOD87FR as a replacement. If you already have an idler hub and need an over-the hub rotor you can use the # K2R35D for a replacement. It looks like you're using oil now, but you can replace that with grease # L11390. If you want to stick with an oil bath setup we also have the # KOD77FR available...

  • Could DeeMax Disc Brake Kit Work on 2014 Wesco Trailer
    Hey Joe, the DeMaxx Disc Brake Kit part # DE82FR will work on your Wesco trailer as long as it has 5,200-6k axle with idler hubs currently. If you are not sure what your trailer has currently go out and check the axle's sticker/tag for it's capacity info and then check the wheel bolt pattern. The hubs you have would need to be idlers currently without a brake drum for this slip on kit to fit. If you have a hub/drum currently this wouldn't slip onto that setup but you could go with the...

  • Does DeeMaxx Disc Brake Kit Include Everything Needed for Installation
    The DeeMaxx Disc Brake Kit # DE82FR has the bolts and all other parts necessary to replace the Kodiak # K2R526DKG on your trailer. The bolts are already in place in the pictures for the DeeMaxx, unlike the Kodiak where we have them sitting out separately.

  • What Brake Kit, Brake Lines, and EOH Actuator do I Need for My Tandem Axle Boat Trailer?
    Hello Joey, Thanks for writing in, I am glad you found us! For your tandem 6K axle boat trailer, I recommend going with the DeeMaxx stainless steel disc brake kit paired with the Hydrastar electric over hydraulic actuator with included line kit, # DE54VR and # CAR-HBA16-2. This combination gives you a fully matched setup designed for marine use, with stainless components that hold up to water exposure and an actuator that delivers strong, consistent braking power.

  • Availability of Disc Brakes With 8 on 6-1/2 Bolt Pattern for 6k Axle
    Hey Tim! Are you looking for slip-on rotors like the # DE82FR you were looking at? The 7k disc brakes fit the same brake flange so you can use them with your setup. The correct kit depends on your wheel bolt diameter. If you have 9/16" wheel bolts you need # DE49YR and for 1/2" wheel bolts # DE34VR. Both are designed to fit idler hubs with an 8 on 6-1/2 bolt pattern. What kind of trailer do you have?
