Features to know about

Tough Loads, Smooth Stops: 20,000-lb Surge Design for Disc Brakes

This actuator keeps heavy setups under control with a 20,000-lb capacity and a 2,000-lb maximum tongue weight. The hydraulic surge system automatically matches your braking force, so your trailer slows down in sync with the tow vehicle. It’s tuned for disc brakes and uses an efficient roller design that cuts down resistance during telescoping, giving you straight-line braking without the jerk or lag you find in older units.

Built to Take a Beating: Heavy-Duty Steel Construction

The sturdy steel body is made to hold its shape even when things get tight, like in a jackknife situation. It’s strong enough to handle rough use on work or boat trailers while keeping components aligned for consistent performance. The 3" drop coupler is part of the standard heavy-duty build, so you get solid engagement every time you hitch up.

Ready for the Long Haul: Primed Finish and Weld-On Mount

You can weld this actuator straight onto a 3" wide channel tongue for a solid, permanent fit. The primed finish gives you a good surface to paint or coat however you want, helping it stand up to corrosion over time. Once it’s welded in place and finished, there’s nothing loose or adjustable to worry about—just a clean, durable mount built to last.

Extra Safety on Every Tow: Integrated Breakaway Kit

A built-in breakaway kit comes with the actuator, giving you one less thing to add on later. It’s there to engage the trailer brakes automatically if the connection to the tow vehicle ever fails. That extra layer of safety helps protect your gear and keeps your trailer from rolling off if something unexpected happens.
