Disc Brakes

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.


Over-the-Hub Rotor

Kodiak's slip-on, stainless steel rotor makes it easy to convert an idler axle to a disc brake axle. Simply place the rotor over your hub. It is most often wheel bolt piloted for a loose fit and then held in place by the wheel itself. With a separate rotor and hub, you can easily repair or replace one element of your brake system without having to junk the whole thing.


Calipers

Kodiak calipers are constructed of stainless steel to prevent flexing and rust. 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.


Mounting Brackets

Designed for axles with 5-bolt brake flange configurations, the included mounting brackets are made of heavy-duty, corrosion-resistant stainless steel 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.

  • Do You Have Replacement Rotors and Calipers for a Knott 6,000 lbs Axles?
    Hey Michael! Thank you for all of the information. I looked up the Knott axle on your Loadrite boat trailer and we might not have a small enough disc brake rotor that will fit on your 6,000 lbs torsion axle. What size wheels do you have? If your boat trailer uses 14-1/2", 15", or 16" wheels, you can replace your rotors and calipers with the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit item # K2R526S. If your boat trailer uses wheels 14" or smaller we do not have an option that works with a 6 on 5-1/2 lug pattern....

  • Is Swapping to Disc Brakes Beneficial For a 2010 Keystone Laredo 5TH Wheel?
    For your 2010 Keystone Laredo 266RL a Disc Brake trailer brake upgrade would provide you will a lot better stopping power. You would need to remove your current brake assemblies and hubs. The disc brakes will also require some modification to your trailers braking system. You will have to use an electric over hydraulic brake actuator which may require a different brake controller and run brake lines that will need to be filled with brake fluid and properly bleed. The benefits are that...

  • Parts Needed to Convert 5,200 lb Trailer Axle to Stainless Rotors
    If it's a slip-on rotor setup what you'll want is the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit part # K2R526S for each axle. This gives you a stainless steel rotor and caliper. We do not have any stainless rotors that will fit with the UFP calipers you have now. If you have a hub/rotor setup the best option would be a setup that has stainless calipers and Dacromet coated rotors like the part # KOD56FR. We don't have any stainless hub/rotors at this time.

  • Will Kodiak Disc Brake Kit Replace UFP Brakes On 5,200 Lb Torsion Axle
    The correct Kodiak Disc Brake Kit for a 5,200 lb axle is part # K2R526S for stainless or part # K2R526D for dacroment. In regards to compatibility, the brake mounting flange and spindle size are the only factors we can confirm. I don't foresee any issues but test fitting would be the only way to confirm. There are no exclusions for torsion axle trailers in general.

  • Adding 6k lbs Capacity Disc Brakes to Lippert 5200 Axles
    I recommend using the Kodiak disc steel brake kit item # K2R526S. This is a stainless steel 12" Rotor with 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern rated up to 6,000 lbs. You will also need to have hubs with a 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern and a brake mounting flange with a 5 bolt pattern. If your trailer does not have brake mounting flanges, you will want to have them professionally installed because it requires precision accuracy. For the hydraulic function of the brakes you'll need a HydraStar Electric...

  • Recommended Disc Brake Conversion Kit for 5200-lbs Lippert Axles with 6 on 5-1/2 Bolt Pattern
    I was able to check with Lippert to get confirmation on the specs of your V000408984 axle, which are 5200-lbs axles with 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern hubs. This will give you 2 different options you can use depending on the quality of corrosion resistance you're looking for. The first option is the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit # K2HR526D, which is a confirmed fit with the hubs and spindle that came on the V000408984 axle. This disc brake kit is dacromet plated to provide you with good corrosion...

  • Can Kodiak Disc Brake Kit Replace TDE46247 Rotors
    Yes, the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit - 12" Rotor - 6 on 5-1/2 - Stainless Steel - 5,200 lbs to 6,000 lbs # K2R526S can be used to replace your current TDE46247 rotors. From what I have found, the TDE46247 is a 12" rotor for a 6,000 lb axle and has a 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern. This matches the # K2R526S so you will be able to use these without a problem. I have attached a review video for your reference.

  • Can 7000 lb Disc Brakes be Used In Place of 6,000 lb Disc Brakes
    There would be a slight advantage to using 7,000 lb brakes in place of 6,000 lb brakes. The 7,000 lb brakes would not have tow work quite as hard reducing heat build up, but for the weight of your trailer, the 6,000 lb brakes should be able to handle the job well. The disadvantages that you listed are correct as well. When it comes to disc brakes, 7,000 lb brake assemblies will cost more than the 6,000 lb brakes and all of our 7,000 lb disc brake assemblies come with an 8 on 6-1/2 inch...

  • Converting Boat Trailer With 6k Axles From Drum to Disc Brakes Hydraulic Brakes & Titan 7500 Actuato
    We can get you set up to go from drum to disc brakes, and going with stainless steel brakes is a really smart idea, particularly in salt water. As for the master cylinder, though you just changed it, since you are going to disc brakes you're actually going to have to change it again to the disc brake application in order to get the higher psi needed (which I fully realize is less than ideal since you just changed it, but is necessary). So what you'll need for your Aero 7500 is the following: -...

    Where there are no specific fits for your trailer, there are disc brakes that can work. You didn't say if you were looking for slip-on or complete hub assemblies, but I can help you out. For slip on rotors, you just need to know your brake mounting flange and hub's wheel bolt pattern. For example, the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit - 12" Rotor - 6 on 5-1/2 - Stainless Steel - 5,200 lbs to 6,000 lbs # K2R526S requires your axle have a 5-bolt brake mounting flange and a hub with a 6 on 5-1/2" wheel...

  • Replacement Disc Brake Kits and Brake Parts for Ranger Boat Trailer
    We can help you with either new disc brakes or with replacement parts for your existing disc brake setup on your Ranger boat trailer. Either way you will want to confirm the axle rating of the single or tandem axles on the trailer since complete brakes and some brake parts are specific to a particular axle weight rating. The trailer's main sticker may have axle ratings indicated or sometimes on the axle beam itself there will be a plate or sticker with its specific weight capacity. If...

  • Recommended Replacement Surge Brake Actuator For Atwood 85778 For Drum Brakes or Disc Brake Upgrade
    You are correct that parts are no longer available for your Atwood 85778 brake actuator. I recommend the Demco Hydraulic Brake Actuator w/ Manual Lockout # DM8760011 as a replacement if you wish to keep your drum brakes. A Demco Trailer Coupler # DM12688-95 will attach to the 3" channel on the actuator for a 2" ball connection. It really comes down to if you are happy with the performance of your current drum brakes.

If so, for the brakes I recommend: - Kodiak Disc Brake Kit - 12" Rotor - 6 on 5-1/2 - Stainless Steel - 5,200 lbs to 6,000 lbs # K2R526S Then for an actuator and breakaway battery combination I recommend the HydraStar Marine...

This will include stainless steel brakes and wheel lug nuts, as well as all of the hoses.

The disc brake kit will fit wheels 15 inches and up, with axles rated 5,200 to 6,000 pounds. The rotor will fit over 6 on 5-1/2 inch, standard idler hubs that are held in place by the wheel and then use lug nuts.

    You can install electric brakes on a boat trailer but it is not recommended to use the electric brakes when they get submerged in the water. The Electric Trailer Brake Kit # AKEBRK-7-D has a Dacromet coating for superior corrosion resistance due to being submerged in water. If this is the route you choose you will need to ensure your hub is okay to use with electric brakes. Or we have the Galvanized Easy Grease Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # AKHD-655-6-G-EZ-K.

But since you are replacing your spindle, this won't be an issue, as you'll just weld on the #42 Spindle for 5,200-lb to 7,000-lb Trailer Axles # TRU57FR. Then for a disc brake kit that fits this spindle, there isn't a fully stainless option that also has an oil bath, but if you're okay with the...

The Dacromet has a 400 to 600 salt spray rating but it is always a good idea to spray them of with fresh water after use in salt water.
