What to Know About the Replacement Trailer Brake Magnet Kit for 7" Brake Assemblies

Video Transcript for What to Know About the Replacement Trailer Brake Magnet Kit for 7" Brake Assemblies

Today we're going to take a look at the replacement trailer brake magnet kit for your Dexter 7" and 10" trailer brake assemblies. This whole complete kit will allow you to replace the worn out magnet on your 7" or 10" trailer brake. Helps you save money and time because it's better than having to replace the whole brake assembly. It is designed to work with the following brake assemblies: a Dexter 7" x 1 1/4" brake assembly for 2,200 pound axles, part number 23-47 and 23-48 and the Dexter 10" x 1 1/2" brake assemblies for 2,800 pound axles. You can see this is a round magnet design. Has a nice sleeve on it that covers the wires, protects them from any abrasion. That's when these wires go through the backing plate on the brake assembly, you don't want them rubbing against there and causing them to cut or break. It comes with the two wires, two white wires. They are electric brakes so they do need to be connected.

One goes to the brake feed. The other goes to a good clean ground and they're both white wires so either wire can be used for either function. This part includes the magnet, the spring and the retainer clip. The dimension on the magnet itself, it's a round magnet so the diameter is right at 1 7/8" and the overall height on it is right at 3/4" tall. But that should do it for the review on the replacement trailer magnet kit for the Dexter 7" and 10" trailer brake assemblies.

Lakysha was patient and helpful with me. She arranged the delivery of my part to a local UPS store near the campground in Davis Bayou. Videos on eTrailer helped me learn the procedure to fix my brake problem. I was able to make the repair and continue my trip. Home safe and sound now. Thank you Lakysha and eTrailer.

WOW been a year now! There hasn't been any problems with the products for my Aluma ATV trailer. The 12 volt electric brake magnets to the dust cap covers you cannot beat the quality of these items and the excellent price paid for these. etrailer products and the great customer rep (George J) always following up.

by: Ronald 05/31/2016

I have done business with etrailer over the last several years 2-4. I have purchased tires, brake magnets, trailer switches etc from them and the service has been outstanding everytime. The parts have always been quality items. If you need to purchase items for trailers buy from them.

expected and fit my application without any difficulties. I especially appreciated that all of the necessary springs and clips, necessary for installation, were included in the package. The parts arrived promptly within a few days after placing the order. I have no complaints.

Fitted my Jayco tent trailer quite well and did the job. Those trailer brakes saved my bacon on several occasions. Well worth the purchase. Thanks.

I thought finding replacement magnets was going to be a scavenger hunt. Happy to find etrailer had what I needed. Easy remove and replace.

Great Fit. I put them on 7" Dexter brakes on my popup camper.
Buy these.

Parts came quickly and fit perfectly. My only complaint is one (I ordered 4) came with two springs and no retainer clip. So I had to make one

Exact replacement, easy to install.

by: crazybill 07/26/2015

Worked exactly as expected, except that the clips are very hard to use and easily ruined. Do yourself a favor and order clips BP19-001 as backup. Cheap insurance and valuable spares.

by: Dallas W. 09/10/2016

It was exactly the right part. It was received in a few days from placing order. No complaints whatsoever.

Troubleshooting Weak Trailer Brakes
Hey Kyle, with as rare as magnet failure is I would be surprised if both of your magnets failed at the exact same time. Since both are not working well that makes me think the problem is something both of the magnets have in common. This is almost always the ground circuit. I know you checked the wiring but did you check the pins on the 7-way for corrosion? If there's corrosion there I would try hitting them with sandpaper.

Replacement Brake Assembly Parts for 2800 lbs Philips/Dexter Axle with 1-1/4 Inch Deep Hubs
You will want the Replacement Brake Spring Set for Dexter 10" x 1-1/2" Electric Trailer Brake Assembly # K71-362-00. Then you will want the Replacement Trailer Brake Magnet Kit for 7" Brake Assemblies # BP01-068 due to the thinner hubs instead of the traditional 10 x 2-1/4 inch hubs. That guide for the anchor post is not available as a replacement part from any of our manufacturers.

Comparing Replacement Magnet Kit for 7" Electric Trailer Brake Assemblies BP01-068 and AKBRKR-M7
The Replacement Magnet Kit for 7" Electric Trailer Brake Assemblies part # AKBRKR-M7 and Replacement Trailer Brake Magnet Kit for 7" Brake Assemblies part # BP01-068 are both round brake magnets for 7", 2,000 lb trailer braking assemblies. That said, the former is made for etrailer/Axle Tech braking assemblies and the latter is made for Dexter braking assemblies. It's possible they are cross-compatible but I don't recommend it. I recommend simply going with the one that matches what brand...

How do the Magnets of Dexter 7 inch Brake Assemblies Attach
The 7 inch Dexter Brake Assemblies like the part # 23-48 do use clips to attach the magnets to the assemblies. I went and pulled one from our warehouse and found that in order to attach the magnet to the arm you would need to slide the magnet over the arm and then press the clip over the arm as well. I attached a picture that shows how the two go together. The replacement magnet kit part # BP01-068 has this clip.

Magnet Retaining Clip for 7 Inch Electric Trailer Brakes
We do not have the exact magnet clip for 7 inch brakes so # AKBRKR-MC could work but it may need to be modified to fit. The other option is to replace the magnet which comes with a new spring and clip, # BP01-068. Without the clip the magnet can come off of the actuating arm and tumble around in the drum.

We do offer the Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Kit # K23-472-473-00 if you decide that you want to replace the entire assembly due to the age of the pads.

Replacement Dexter Trailer Brake Magnets for 10 Inch Assembly

I contacted our representative at Dexter, and he informed me that the item you selected, Trailer Brake Magnet Kit for 7 Inch Hub/Drums, part # BP01-068 should fit your Alko Axle with 7 x 1-1/4 drums.

Availability of Replacement Magnet Retaining Clip for 7-Inch Dexter Electric Brake Assembly
The Dexter 7 inch electric brake assembly uses a magnet retaining clip that's different from the # BP19005 you described, which is only compatible with magnets for a 10, 12 and 12-1/4 inch brake assembly. The magnet retaining clips are indeed necessary for holding the magnet in proper position. Unfortunately, the magnet retaining clips for the round magnet are not offered as a separate unit, but only as part of the # BP01-068 replacement magnet kit. I was surprised they weren't available...

How Many Magnets Are Included with the Replacement Magnet Kit for 10" Electric Brakes
The Replacement Magnet Kit for 10" Electric Trailer Brake Assemblies part # AKBRKR-M10 only comes with one magnet. Therefore, you will need to order a quantity of two per axle. However, it looks like you have a round magnet not an oval one like the above. Therefore, in order to replace just the magnet we have part # BP01-068 for 7" x 1-1/4" and 10" x 1-1/2" braking assemblies. In regards to the wear on the inside face of your drum, this is not really something that can be resurfaced so...
