Bearing, Race and Seal Information
More and more people are switching their trailers over to disc brakes, and with good reason. Disc brakes deliver consistent braking - even at highway speeds - unlike drum brakes, which often show a substantial drop in braking torque at higher speeds. In addition, disc brakes offer a substantially shorter stopping distance than drum brakes. Disc brake calipers have only one moving part, rather than the many found in drum brakes. This means that there are fewer parts to maintain, fewer parts to get damaged and fewer parts to have to repair or replace, thus reducing maintenance costs.
The integral hub-and-rotor is made from cast iron, matching SAE specifications. Cast iron is ideal for high-temperature operations and offers a favorable friction coefficient to ensure adequate stopping power. Kodiak's rotors are vented to effectively dissipate heat, dramatically reducing the incidence of heat-related damage. Furthermore, machined disc brakes minimize the chance of contamination between the hub and rotor, resulting in excellent performance and long life.
Kodiak calipers are constructed of cast iron to prevent flexing. Less flex means more braking torque, resulting in smooth, even braking every time. The corrosion-resistant stainless steel piston is 30 percent larger than standard pistons, ensuring shorter stopping distance and increased torque. In addition, the unique low-drag design of Kodiak's calipers allows the piston to retract farther than in most standard models, giving you a cooler-running brake.
Designed for axles with 5-bolt brake flange configurations, the included mounting brackets are made of heavy-duty ductile iron that is embossed to provide additional threading for guide bolts. The added thread strength ensures a tighter, more secure connection between the caliper and bracket. Another unique feature of Kodiak's brackets is the side-support angle, which guarantees that the load is carried by the bracket, rather than the bolts.

Installed this over 1 year ago on 6000lb single axle Carnai boat trailer and couldn't be happier. Install went smoothly and brakes are working fine. 892102
Very pleased with the quality of the parts and service 893054
Sweet brake kit for an upgrade, replacing the old electric brake system! 863343
This kit works quite well, We use it in harsh conditions as a replacement for O.E. parts. This kit is a 1/3rd of the price of O.E. and last twice as long. 814402
Excellent Product. If you're going to change over to disc brakes then use the best you can buy. 775936
Terrific quality, fair price, excellent service. 732931

Great service, quick shipping, and everything fit perfectly. Parts seem to be of high quality. Very happy thanks. 569538
After years of frustration with the standard drum brakes on my boat trailer I called William at etrailer. I ordered a disk brake conversion kit and new wheel bearings, The parts showed up 2 days earlier than I was expecting them allowing me to install them for the weekend. They look like quality items and I will gladly do business with Etrailer in the future. I'm satisfied with my purchase and I'm confident that I have a quality product. 541082
I used two of these to convert a two axle trailer from surge drum brakes to electric over hydraulic disc brakes. The improvement in braking can't be overstated! The difference is amazing. The installation was very straightforward with the instructions provided. If you have any mechanical aptitude you can handle this conversion. 529580

Easy to install. Priced very well. Sales person was very helpful 436168
Well made. No issues. Brakes work very well. 436088
The Kodiac Disk brakes teamed with the Hydrastar Actuator should be a must for those towing with a concern for safety. The stopping distance is amazing compared to the standard electric surge braking systems. The initial cost outlay will pay for itself if it prevents an accident where deductibles are involved and the downtime. The complete installation of the system was actually quite easy if you are mechanically inclined and set aside the time to do it properly. 429664
Quick and personal service - thank you for having a human being available for questions! Will order from etrailer.com again! 408739
We do a lot of traveling in our 5th wheel rv all over the U.S. I bought this product because I don't particularly like the way the original electric brakes work. I installed them myself and the hardest part was routing the hydraulic lines, but it still didn't take much over one day. This past year we put about 10,000 miles on the rv and if it wasn't for the excellent stopping power of these brakes we probably would have had 2 accidents. One when the car in front of me missed his exit near Kansas city and decided to slam on his brakes and come to a stop in the middle of the freeway, and another time when out of nowhere a deer ran out in front of me on the interstate in New York. I love the brakes and will never be without disc brakes again!!! 324287
Great design 275587
Removed the drums on a 2015 Fifth Wheel that was used twice. It appears that the right side drums has a different installer as the grease seal was blown through with grease on the magnets, brake shoes, and inside the hub. Removed all factory material and installed the e-trailer rotors with disc brakes and the installation was seamless. Looks better and provides excellent stopping power. Remember just because it is new does not mean someone at the factory did not make a mistake. I had absolutely no brakes on this RV that weighed 12,100lbs loaded. Thank you Ricky S. for the help and E-Trailer 275534
Glenn L - 01/06/2018Product looks great. It was shipped very quickly. I have ordered the second set as not to overload the UPS delivery person. I am already feeling confident that my RV will have the necessary braking power now. 273596
Excellent. No comparison to the old electric drum system 270522
