Self-adjusting passenger's-side electric trailer brake measures 10" x 2-1/4". Brake pads are made of durable friction material for improved braking and longevity. E-coated backing plate resists rust. Fits 13" to 15" wheels.


Features:

  • Electric brakes are easier to install and offer more user control than hydraulic brakes
    • Requires only an electric brake controller (sold separately) - no actuator or hydraulic lines necessary
  • Automotive-grade friction material is molded to brake shoes
    • Pads are fully bonded - not riveted - to shoes for long life and more braking torque
    • Less chance of cracking and crumbling that can lead to mechanical lockup, thanks to tapered edge and circular grinding
  • Self-adjusting brake does not require periodic manual adjustment like standard brakes
    • Fine-tooth brake adjustment gear allows for a more precise setting
  • E-coated backing plate resists wear and corrosion
  • Adjuster plugs (included) cover access holes to keep dirt and grime out of the assembly and off of the shoes
  • Brake mounting bolts are included
    • Nuts and lock washers (BRKH10BS) sold separately
  • QAI and CSA certified


Specs:

  • Application: most standard hub-and-drum assemblies, including Dexter, Lippert (LCI), and AL-KO
  • Configuration: right hand (passenger's side)
  • Dimensions: 10" diameter x 2-1/4" wide
  • Mounting flange bolt pattern: 4 bolt
  • Wheel size: 13", 14", and 15"
  • Axle rating: 3,500 lbs
  • Limited 1-year warranty


Self-Adjusting Brake Doesn't Require Routine Adjustment

Standard electric brake assemblies require manual adjustment of the brake shoes over time to provide longer-lasting and more efficient braking performance. With self-adjusting brakes, the brake shoes are always properly aligned, so there's no need to manually adjust the brakes after the initial adjustment. As a result, you get optimum performance without having to take the time to continually perform this type of maintenance.


Thoroughly Tested for Safety

This brake assembly meets the requirements for certification by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). The CSA creates standards, which when complied with ensure a safe and quality product. This brake assembly underwent extensive testing to measure stopping distances when braking. This brake has also been tested by QAI for braking performance in a complete automotive setup and under real-world conditions to provide the most realistic scenario for the everyday driver.


Automotive-Grade Friction Material

Each shoe on this brake assembly is lined with automotive-grade friction material for improved stopping performance and longevity. The friction material is fully bonded onto the surface of the brake shoe. This lining is custom-molded for a perfect fit. The edges are tapered to ensure long-lasting performance. This taper, along with the circular grinding that the lining undergoes, helps to prevent cracking and crumbling. This durability helps to prevent mechanical lockup, which can occur when brake shoes are excessively worn or broken.


The friction material is also SAE-N certified, which means that it is an environmentally safe product that complies with California and Washington regulations regarding the composition of brake pads. As a result, this material not only provides high-performance braking that can endure the test of time, but it is also environmentally friendly and safe for use throughout the United States and Canada.

I pulled the brake hub off a month ago and everything looked great so I installed new grease seal and put it back on



by:

Etrailer was great as usual, the item shipped the very next day and is exactly what I ordered.

Unfortunately standard shipping is with USPS and that was poor at best. It took 13 days from the time of USPS getting the package until it got to me. If you need a part quickly I highly recommend paying the premium for another shipping method.



by:

these brake assemblies were easy to order and arrived in 2 days.
very happy with my order



by:

Bought a Hayes 3500 lbs axle that sat in the dirt for years and the pads nearly fused to the hubs. Well worth the money for piece of mind. Only suggestion is to pick up the 7/16-20 bolts with your order (eTrailer, why not just add it to the kit?)

Made my trailer project much easier.

Thank you much!



by:

Installed a complete set of 4 of the E trailer self adjusting brakes on my 2002 Doolittle trailer with Dexter 3500 axles....the pre assembled units went on effortlessly, and worked perfect.....would highly recommend them....thanks



by:

Got my electric breaks in and put them on my camper,( new parts should come with new hardware) easy online ordering and easy tracking, I will start ordering all my parts here.



by:

Good quality for the price



by:

So far so good. I ordered a bunch of stuff from several sites th night I got my brake parts. Etrailer was the fastest order forfillment and the first on my porch by far. Everything fit like it was supposed to and this far seems to be working well. Can’t ask for more then that. If they sold a 11/16 ratchet wrench with these things would have gone lots faster.



by:

I am so glad I Purchased the entire brake assembly instead of individual parts. This brake assembly is better than the original since it is self adjusting and I’ll never have to adjust my brakes again. It was a snap to install thanks to etrailer.com video instructions. I highly recommend this product

We use these brakes on a heavy loaded Interstate 7,000 lb.trailer, 16 foot, high top, walk in cargo trailer that has dual axles. The route is between southern Missouri, over the Rocky Mountains passes and over the Cascade Mountain Passes into the Pacifice northwest and back to Missouri...over 5,000 miles round trip. Towed by Dodge Dakota pickup truck, I REQUIRE brakes that are reliable, self adjusting, and function together in a consistent manner. These brakes replaced manual adjustment brakes of which enroute wear required multiple manual adjustments along the side of the road to safely cross high mountain passes. The difference between manual and self adjusting brakes and the consistent/straight stoping power of the self adjusting brakes is impossible to overstate. These self adjusting brakes were very easy to install, a mere bolt on job. I literally trust our lives to these brakes....and recommend them with great confidence with tens of thousands of miles of use.

Fantastic quality, 0 complaints!

and work perfect. Would absolutely recommend. I’ll be sure to use etrailer for my trailer and hauling needs.

Fits perfect - thanks for all the help with choosing the correct part. I was surprised there wasn't nuts and washers for the bolts. But am happy with the results.

Been working great. Great quality at a fair price.

I ordered an electric trailer brake assembly to replace a damaged one on my 14 foot cargo trailer. The fit was perfect and the one I ordered was self-adjusting.

Ordered brakes for my trailer shipping was fast installation was a breeze took about 30 minutes per wheel after watching the video this is the second time I have bought from E Trailer and will continue to buy

The brake assembly does not come with new butt connectors for installation. If you are replacing the brakes on a single axle trailer, I recommend the heat shrink butt connector kit # DW05745-5 that includes 5 connectors. If you are replacing the brakes on a dual axle trailer, I recommend kit # DW05745-10 that includes 10 butt connectors.



by:

Good price,delivery and fit. Self adjusters will hopefully save me the job of getting my Airstream off the ground to adjust the brakes in the future. So that makes me a "Happy Camper".

After about a year and 10k miles the brakes work just as they should without having to manually adjust them and I am still a Happy Camper!!



by:

Part shipped promptly. Installed and always had trouble with brakes adjusting to tight and making hub run really hot. Adjusted 3 times and would always tighten back up and run hot. Asked about warranty. Would have to ship back on my dime as rep said and etrailer would determine if part was bad. My question was how they determine part issue when is not installed as just looking at brake hub it looked ok. Just ordered a new Dexter no adjust brake hub and hoping for better results. Also found a equal part at local auto part store for same money and no shipping fee. Had I had know auto part store stocked brake hub I would and will buy from them. So if you have time shop around.....



by:

Great website makes it easy to find the correct parts you need. Shipping was fast and the items were packed correctly, no damage or torn boxes. The videos about the products are great, they answer alot of questions. NOBODY came close to their price, they just make it to darn easy to do business with!

I am very happy to report STILL, I am very happy, actually, 110 happy with the brake kit wiring kit I got from yous.I have had zero issues with my car trailer, and have not seen issues with rust, ineffective braking.So I appreciate your products, and will be back for sure!



by:

Perfect fit. A no hassle solution to replacing your brakes. It all comes as one component - minus the mounting hardware. I would have given it 5 stars if it included an absolutely needed part: the four 7/16 x 20 threaded nuts. It does tell you that it’s not included. I figured I could get them locally but couldn’t. Local stores have threads all around the 20, but not the 20. I was wrong so I had to put off installing until I could come back and order them from etrailer. Why not just add them to the brake assembly and raise the price of the assembly by $[XX]? If not for that, I certainly would give it a 5-star rating.

  • Can Hydraulic Brakes of Demco Tow Dolly be Converted to Electric Brakes
    Since Demco uses 3,500 drum brake assemblies part # DMSB24429M and # DMSB24428M what you'd need is similar 3,500 electric brake assemblies like the etrailer part # AKEBRK-35L-SA for the left hand side and # AKEBRK-35R-SA for the right hand side. To wire these up you'd just need 10 gauge wire like the part # 10-1-1 which we sell by the foot. Then to add a 7-way the easiest way to do that is with the 7-way junction box # e99011.

  • Initial Adjustment Of Self-Adjusting Electric Brakes On Trailer
    To initially adjust the brakes, you will need to raise the trailer and secure it on adequate capacity jack stands. Check that the wheel and drum rotate freely. Do not lift or support trailer on any part of the axle or the suspension system. Remove the adjusting hole cover from the adjusting slot on the bottom of the brake backing plate. With a screwdriver or standard adjusting tool like part # W80630, rotate the starwheel of the adjuster assembly to expand the brake shoes. Adjust the brake...

  • Which Axle Should Electric Brakes be Installed on with Tandem Axle Trailer
    When installing electric brake assemblies on just one axle of a tandem axle trailer, you will essentially want to choose the axle that is going to be seeing more weight. Typically on utility trailers, most of the weight will be in front of the axles so the brake assemblies will be installed on the front axle. For boat trailers, where the motors are at the rear, you will usually see brakes on the rear axle. I have attached a great article that details everything you will need to install...

If you can not find the numbers you will need to measure the spindle. I have attached a drawing that shows where you need to measure the spindle to find the right replacements.

  • Parts Needed to Add Brakes to Second Axle on Tandem Axle Car Hauler
    Assuming that the axle that doesn't currently have brake assemblies has a brake mounting flange inboard from each spindle, you an easily install brakes on the second axle. A standard 3500 lb axle would use 10 inch hubs with a L68149 inner and a L44649 outer wheel bearing (you'll want to check your existing bearings to confirm). If that indeed is what you have, I'd recommend the # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K 3500 lb hub drum with a 5 on 4-1/2 wheel bolt pattern, which are sold individually. You'll...

  • Troubleshooting One Brake Assembly Getting Hotter Than the Other
    A bad ground can cause just one brake assembly to get hotter only as a result of the assembly with the bad ground not engaging, which in turn causes the assembly on the other side to do all the work (thus get hotter). It appears though that both brake assemblies on your axle are working so I don't think a bad/weak ground is the culprit here. When just one assembly gets a lot hotter it's usually just a case of that particular assembly being adjusted tighter than the other. You want to...

  • Could Trailer Brakes be Added to 2006 Big Tex 35SA

  • Can I Change a 5 on 4-1/2 Drum With A 5 on 5 Drum For A Trailer With 3,500 lb Axles
    As long as the drums have the same weight capacity as the axles that you are putting them on then there should be no problems there. If you don't already have the 5 on 5 drums that you are asking about, I recommend using the E-Z Lube Hub and Drum Assembly # 84556UC3-EZ. It has the E-Z lube cap on the end of the drum so if you have E-Z-lube axles it makes greasing your axles easier. It also works great with axles that do not have the E-Z lube option. Since you are taking the 5 on 4-1/2...

  • Trailer Brakes Lock Up When Hooked to Breakaway Battery
    It sounds like you found out why the brakes were activated while you were towing the trailer to storage, so that solves that problem. Now we will want to figure out why the brakes are still locking up with the new breakaway switch. Even if you fried the brake magnets, the brakes should not lock up if the breakaway system is setup properly. I recommend inspecting the wiring of the breakaway system on your trailer to see why power is reaching the brake assemblies. I have attached a wiring...

    The answer to your question depends on what is damaged. I recommend taking your wheel off and inspecting the hub and drum assembly along with the spindle and the axle itself.

If your hub or brake assembly suffered any damage you can replace them with the # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K and # AKEBRK-35R-SA. Depending on the cost...
