Manual-Adjust Brakes
With repeated use of these brake assemblies, the brake shoes may move out of alignment, causing less efficient braking performance. To keep the brake shoes aligned and the brake assemblies performing correctly, you should perform routine maintenance.
These brake assemblies should be adjusted after installation and then as needed for the life of the brakes. To adjust the brakes, use a brake adjustment screw tool (sold separately) to turn the adjustment gear on the inside of the assemblies. Continue to turn the gear until the drum surrounding the brake catches on the brake pads enough so that the hub can no longer be turned easily by hand. Then reverse the gear by about 10 clicks. A properly adjusted brake should drag slightly on the brake drum.
Thoroughly Tested for Safety
These brake assemblies meet the requirements for certification by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). The CSA creates standards, which when complied with ensure a safe and quality product. These brake assemblies underwent extensive testing to measure stopping distances when braking. These brakes have 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 these brake assemblies 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.

Driver's-side and passenger's-side electric brakes measure 7" x 1-1/4". Brake pads are made of durable friction material for improved braking and longevity. E-coated backing plates resist rust. Fit 10" to 13" wheels.by: Jim K.06/23/2023
I installed these brakes on my trailer a year ago and they still perform great. I repacked the bearings just now after the first year and observed the brakes still appear in good working order. However there are two items to remain attentive to. First, these brakes were shipped poorly. They were just thwon in a box without packing, so they tossed and banged their whole way here. Second, when you receive these brakes simpley throw away the retaining clip for the magnet. It doesn't hold worth a lick, you can replace the clip with BP19-001 which fits great even though advertised for 10" and 12" brakes. Good luck.
by: Jerry07/14/2023
Package arrived completely destroyed, no packing materials to speak of. Wheel bearing sets were open and rolling around loose in what was left of the box. Electric breaks were damaged and parts of them loose in the box, I have no idea as to why none of the smaller pieces didn't fall out during shipping. I was able to repair the break parts. This company has all the trademarks of a 3rd party drop shipper. I won't waste my time or money returning the items, as they will only send more damaged [cheap] junk. Shipping is extremely slow and tracking data is all over the planet. My money is better spent elsewhere.

I replaced the original hydraulic brakes and hubs on a Jayco popup trailer. The electric brake and hub Assemblies are excellent and were an easy install. Haven't used the trailer during the Covid pandemic, but hope to soon.
by: CHARLIE B05/22/2021
Brake assemblies seem fine, but they don't come with the mounting nuts! You have to purchase them separately. Others have pointed this out only to have an "e-expert" reply with a link to the mounting hardware and an implied "Duh!" So let me do their job for them, here is what should be in the product description- "BRAKE ASSEMBLIES DO NOT INCLUDE THE 8 FINE THREAD 7/16THS NUTS NEEDED FOR THE PRODUCT TO FUNCTION. YOU HAVE TO PURCHASE A SEPARATE PRODUCT TO HAVE A COMPLETE PRODUCT. UNLESS OF COURSE YOU WANT TO GET ELBOWS DEEP INTO YOUR PROJECT ONLY TO DISCOVER YOU HAVE TO STOP EVERYTHING AND GO TO LOWES TO GET 8 NUTS AND WASHERS."
Good Grief
by: Danny08/03/2023
As far as the brakes go, they were a one-to-one replacement with what I had mounts for. Like others have said, it requires bolts and washers so don't forget! Time will tell on longevity, but the shipping was a little bit concerning. The brakes were not in packaging, free floating in the box and had been jostled around.
by: Greg04/28/2022
Ridiculously horrible packing job resulted in damaged parts. The Post Office tried to salvage the box that was getting pounded apart because the person who "packed' the parts just threw the parts together in a padded envelope and then tossed that in a much larger box with no further packing, so the 9 lb. of parts just banged together and banged the shipping box apart. See photos of what post office did to try and salvage the box.

Purchased as part of all parts required to upgrade a 1996 Jayco to electric brakes. Very pleased with quality of parts and results. Battery still fully charged after winter in storage!

These brakes squeal horribly. I have adjusted them, cleaned them, tried heavy force, light force adjusting all the way out and all the way in. They just make the trailer sound horrible. I actually try to not use the brakes because of the way they sound. Bad Bad Bad

Thank you for your review! Regarding the sound coming from your brakes, there are a couple of things that may be the cause that you can check. One thing is to see if your brake pads are worn down, and another thing would be to check the hubs. You said the brakes were clean, but the inside of the hubs can be giving you trouble if they arent cleaned as well. Hopefully this helps you out!

I replaced these brakes with higher quality one from etrailer- new ones are great! These cheaper brakes squeaked from day one. I tried many adjustments all the way in all the way out cleaning nothing helped I replace them with a good quality set the squeaking immediately went away these cheap brakes are junk.
by: Greg06/27/2023
The whole process took a long time. I ordered brakes Sunday night and it took 9 days for them to make it from Missouri to Minnesota. Other places would have had a 3-4 day turnaround. The whole process I feel took to long.
by: Robert06/12/2023
Absolute junk, you didn't help me. Because I installed them, you said you could take them back,,,,cheap China magnets that work like 40% of old school usa magnets....won't buy from Your outfit again..
Thanks for the $xxx worth of crazy junk you won't take back.

I am sorry that this did not work out for you. However, we are unable to accept product that has been installed.

First purchase but not the last. Got them super quick and fit perfectly. Linda was awsome and a true asset for the company. I'd recommend E-Trailer to everyone for any and all trailer needs.
by: Bill 09/19/2023
It's a perfect fit and all works well. Having everything pre-assembled and pre greased was a time saver. Thanks!

Packed carelessly. Just bouncing around in the box with a small clump of paper.
by: Peter02/17/2022
Installed on 2029 sunray 109 that came with 2200 dexter axle and 14 inch wheels/tires. All parts fit well and the new pregreased etrailer hubs/drums made it even easier to assemble. Paula did a great job making sure everything would fit by diligently checking all part numbers,sizing and making sure I got the right controller adapter and brake plate mounting nuts and washers kit. The brakes and pod time delay controller are working well although stopping power seems a mite weak as expected during breaking in period described when you should then readjust after the 1st 200 miles.
by: Ed11/20/2023
Thanks again ,great products & prices
by: Peter 05/04/2023
Fit great, the quality matched the original brakes, and since they are fully assembled, installation was easy!

Oh no! I will have our Customer Service team reach out to you.

The assembly that I originally received, had weak magnets, and burnishing cannot be successfully accomplished.
Etraier was kind enough to send out replacement magnets..
The whole process established a bit of frustration as a second tear down what is required.
by: Robert 08/14/2023
Parts were packed well and arrived quickly. Perfect fit.

I am very sorry to hear that the complete order will not arrive in time for your trip. I will definitely bring this to the attention of our shipping department and have our customer service team reach out to you.
by: Ernest07/26/2021
Great price and great product, although packaging was inadequate. Brake drums were boxed, but brake back plates were just in the box loose. One of the brake shoes got a chunk taken out of it and one of the magnets was detached from the plate, and the clip and spring were loose in the bottom of the box. Luckily I was able to locate all the parts and reassemble it. Brake backing plates should have been packaged better.

- Is etrailer Brake Assembly Set # AKEBRK-2 Sold in Pairs or IndividuallyThe etrailer brake assembly part number # AKEBRK-2 is a set of two assemblies. One for the driver side and one for the passenger side in the 7 inch size for 2k axles. These brakes individually are # AKEBRK-2L for the left hand side and # AKEBRK-2R for the right hand side.

They are designed for a 4 bolt mounting flange bolt pattern and fit most standard hub-and-drum assemblies, including Dexter, Lippert (LCI), and AL-KO. They fit a wheel size of 10", 12", or 13". You'll want to match the brake flange pattern, axle capacity, and hub size when considering what options will fit your application. Since...
view full answer... - How to Tell if 2k Brakes Will WorkI don't have any way of knowing if the Electric Trailer Brake Kit - 7" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies - 2,000 lbs # AKEBRK-2 will work for a 1996 Coleman/Fleetwood pop-up, but if you aren't sure of the axle weight you can measure the inside of your drum and if it is 7 inches in diameter it will work.
view full answer... - What Are The Dimensions Of The Electric Trailer Brake Kit # AKEBRK-2?I would be happy to provide the measurements of the Electric Trailer Brake Kit # AKEBRK-2 for you, but unfortunately we do not have a 3D file or data sheet available.

- Trailer Brake Assembly Replacement for Mission Snow Trailer with 7 inch by 1-1/2 inch AssembliesYes the brake assemblies part # AKEBRK-2 that you referenced would fit in place of what you have now.
view full answer... - Can 7 x 1-1/4 Inch Electric Brakes be Used with Drums for 7 x 1-3/4 Hydraulic BrakesLike you said the 7 x 1-1/4 inch electric brakes # AKEBRK-2 will work with reduced braking. But there is another thing to consider and that is that not all brake drums are compatible with both electric and hydraulic brakes. In most cases it is one or the other. It may indicate this on your brake drums. If you determine that you need to replace the hub and drum assemblies let me know the bearing numbers stamped into the sides of the inner and outer bearings along with the bolt pattern...
view full answer... - 7 inch Diameter Brake Assembly AvailabilityThe common electric brake assembly size that is 7 inches in diameter is 7 inch by 1-1/4 inches wide. The part # AKEBRK-2 matches this and would work on a 2k axle like what you have. It also mounts with a 4 bolt mounting pattern. Only issue is the depth of the assemblies that you referenced. You listed a much deeper depth than what these are. Can you see where your older shoes were rubbing on the drum? What is that depth?

- Will 8 Inch Rims Fit With The AxleTek 7" x 1 1/4" Electric Brake AssemblyElectric Trailer Brake Kit # AKEBRK-2 are the etrailer house brand made by Axletek. The brakes fit 7 by 1-1/4 inch hub and drum assemblies which are sometimes used on trailers with 8 inch wheels. If your trailer has 7 inch drums already then these brakes will work with your wheels. These brakes are for axles with a 2,000 pound rating and a 4 bolt mounting flange bolt pattern.

view full answer... - What Size Wheels are Compatible with Electric Trailer Brake Kit # AKEBRK-2The brake assemblies # AKEBRK-2 that you referenced are only designed to work with wheel sizes of 10, 12, and 13 inch. You'd need to go with a smaller wheel.

view full answer... - How Tight Should Spindle Nut of Trailer Hub Be and Should Brake Drum DragA light drag on the drums from the brake magnets is normal, but if there's enough movement in the hub/drum that you can wiggle it that would indicate it's not quite tight enough. The nut is normally ran down until there is no side to side play in the hub, and then backed off to the next notch in the castle nut so the tang washer or cotter pin can secure the nut. Over-tightening the castle nut can damage the bearings, races and spindle. If you click on the video link I provided, and fast...
view full answer... - What All Is Included In The Electric Trailer Brake Kit # AKEBRK-2The Electric Trailer Brake Kit # AKEBRK-2 comes with one left and one right brake assembly and included mounting hardware. The drums are not included. I would need to know what your inner and outer bearing numbers are on your current axle and I will be able to tell you what you need. The nuts and lock washers # BRKH7 are sold separately. These brakes will work with 10 inch 12 inch and 13 inch wheels, and have an axle rating of 2,000 pounds. I attached a review video link below.
view full answer... - Correct Replacement Braking Assemblies for Dexter 2,200 Lb Axle On Coleman Pop-UpI do have an option for you but I'm not aware of any electric brakes this size. For an axle this size, I'd expect a 7x1-1/4" assembly such as the Electric Trailer Brake Kit part # AKEBRK-2. Please note, the correct way to measure electric trailer brakes is on the inside of the hub where the shoes ride.

I recommend verifying this by taking a quick measurement of the inside diameter and depth on your existing drums (see attached picture). Based on my research, your Casita trailer features a 2,000 pound axle, so I recommend the etrailer.com Electric Trailer Brake Kit # AKEBRK-2.

- How to Find Replacement Electric Brake Assemblies for 1994 Fleetwood MallardIn order to choose the correct electric brake assemblies for your 1994 Fleetwood Mallard, you will want to determine a couple of things. You will first want to determine the axle capacity on your trailer. This should be listed on a plate located somewhere on the axle itself. It looks like your trailer should have a weight of between 3,300 and 4,500 pounds, depending on your specific model. I also found that it has two axles. Once you determine the specific axle capacities, you can filter...

These are 7 inch x 1-1/4 inch brake assemblies and are designed for 2,000 pound axles. The kit includes both the Left Hand and Right Hand assembly.

A good idea is to use parts that are made of stainless steel or aluminum whenever possible. When that isn't possible it's also a good practice to spray the trailer off with freshwater after being in saltwater. The 7 inch brakes that fit a 4 by 4 flange that we have are # AKEBRK-2R for the right side and # AKEBRK-2L for the left. These are manual adjusting brakes designed to fit an axle rated...
