Specs:
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.
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.
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.

Self-adjusting driver's-side and passenger's-side electric brakes are 10" x 2-1/4". Brake pads are made of friction material for improved braking and longevity. E-coated backing plates resist rust. Fit 14" to 15" wheels.Great fast service and delivery. Install was a breeze with everything already installed on the back plate. The self adjusting brakes adjusted really nice. Applied brakes 8 to 10 times with the manual brake control on the controller while driving 20mph and that was it. Sorry forgot to take pictures. 691959
Maybe it's my stupidity, but when I saw brake "kit" it I thought it would have been the whole assembly. However I received the brake pads assembly but not the brake drums. So I'm going to order the drums now. Maybe an either pads, drums, or both option. Still is a really good price for everything and shipping was fast. 394488
Great experience. Excellent price, fast delivery and their representative, Tayler K was very knowledgeable and helpful. Because of the weight packages were beat up on delivery, but everything inside was OK. If you need brakes for your travel trailer this is the place to get them. 691746
Lon M - 08/22/2020The brake assemblies from etrailer are great, they fit and function like the original units. Product turn around is quick. Christie is the best, there was a problem with something I had ordered, she contacted me right away and she solved the problem right on the phone. Plus my order was shipped that day. Can’t say enough about the customer service. 471557
These "3500#" brake assemblies fit my "4400#" AL-KO axles. Apparently AL-KO uses the square flange on both their 3500# and 4400# axles. Ten-inch is ten-inch, I guess. These are also cheaper than the listed 4400# brake assemblies, win-win. The parts quality appears excellent, and the etrailer packaging is superb. I did need to back off three of the four adjustments to 9 15/16 inch prior to assembling the drum. Tip, its much easier to do so before you install the assembly onto the axle since you can get a tape measure across the shoes when the brake is sitting on the bench. I also test fit the drum before installing the bearings, just to assure myself it would clear the shoes. I'm anxious to get on the road with these self-adjusting electric brakes. I've never used them before. 410237
The etrailer brake assemblies seem to be identical to original ones from Dexter, but at a significant savings, so I'm generally satisfied. However, during shipment, they apparently banged together and I had to readjust the shoes and mechanism to get them into position. Also, one of the covers for the adjustment slots in the backing plate had been broken and fallen out. Fortunately, I had some extra covers from a previous set of brakes, so I did not have to wait to have etrailer send me a new one. Also, these brake assemblies do not come with nuts, and I don't recall seeing that in the description. This makes no sense. Naturally, the nuts from the original brakes were corroded beyond usability, so I had to run to town to buy some nuts before I could mount these. Very annoying! Please include the nuts in the package and charge an extra couple of bucks. Anyone who buys the assembly are going to need nuts to mount it. 451448
Haven't installed yet but everything arrived well packed as ordered! They have a great selection, good prices and prompt service! 690137
Need to include set up instructions. On the web site it says to manually adjust the brakes you can not do this due to a bracket blocking the star wheel. The person on the phone that took my order said to do 10 to 15 stops at 20mph in a open parking lot. I found in the q and a it stated to drive and brake and they will adjust. I have gain on my truck where do I start. They do not come with mounting nuts or lock washers 7/16x20. Regards, Bob K 406700
Excellent Brakes - Much easier and less than just replacing the brake pads. Make sure you order the Mounting Hardware for 10" Brake Assemblies - (Part #BRKH10B) if your brakes are very old and rusty. EZ Lube Axles are the best!! 541167
Fast delivery - Ordered on 9/29/17 - Received on 10/4/17 Nice to have a drum kit already assembled. Cost is very reasonable too. Easy to mount and install. Haven't yet been out on the road with them to see how the operational functionality is so I can't comment on that aspect. Only draw back I see is the two wires could stand to be 6"-8" longer. At the current length, you can't easily, if at all ground one wire to the frame without first extending the wire. 440378
Ron - - 10/07/2018They fit, they work, they self-adjust. I'd suggest that anyone who is going to use these buy a brake adjustment tool, as a screwdriver is a hit/miss proposition. An alternative is to manually adjust before the hub is installed. After the hub spins freely with some drag, then pack the bearings and install the wheel. Final adjustment is made with the screwdriver (difficult) or brake adjustment tool (a bit easier). 566058
Heather A - 09/18/2018I am giving this review only three stars because of how these were packaged. The price is fair for them but I think this is a case of getting what you pay for. You would expect each brake unit to come in it's own box or at least somewhat protected from the other brake unit in the box, but that was not the case. Instead they were placed in one large box with paper wadded between them along with 3 other smaller items I had purchased just thrown into the box which allowed everything in the box to basically rattle around during shipment. This careless packaging I assume is a way to cut costs and resulted in one of the brake units being what I thought at first to be very damaged from what I can assume was the from the box they were both poorly packaged into being dropped or something during the shipping process. After 10 minutes of wrestling with the screwed up brake unit I was able to get all the parts back in line like they should be. As far as the review of the actual parts themselves I can not comment as of yet as I have not installed them yet and that is partly because I am reluctant to based on the fact that I now question the integrity of the brake unit that came all bent out of shape. 543301
It turns out the brakes I need are a larger size- I contacted James and he arranged for return of the brakes I received and we ordered the larger brakes Great service from etrailer 692556
Called and talked with Lori B and she was very helpful on making sure I got what I needed for the correct brake package, these fit great and worked like factory. 689933
I would give this product a much better review but I ordered two sets for my double axle trailer and one of the four brake assemblies were wrong. I was in a time crunch and needed the right part ASAP and customer service said I had to pay for expedited shipping even though it was their fault for the wrong item. Therefore, I had to pay a much higher price at a local dealership for the right part. After looking at other customer reviews this is not the first and only incident on receiving wrong parts. etrailer.com was willing to exchange the part for the right one but not fast enough for my needs, so they were willing to fix their mistake but not make the situation right. 413467
I ordered the set of two brake back plate assemblies, and two sets of wheel bearings for my Casita travel trailer. Initially I intended to simply replace the brake shoes. But when I searched on line for the shoes, I found they would cost me nearly as much as the entire backing plate (shoes and all). Of course, replacing the entire plate is much easier. Removing the old ones was the only challenge. Installing the new was easy. I'll test them out tomorrow. For now, I can say that the product looks fine, and it was packaged and shipped very well. Furthermore, the instructional videos on the web site are great, and the products are organized well for finding what I want. I congratulate eTrailer for their organization, and customer contact. Thanks. 485354
Mitch - 03/18/2019 Mitch - 03/18/2019Great price and great quality. Mounted up fine and work perfectly. I did have to grind the top and bottom of the mounting plate in order for them to work with my old drums, but otherwise no issue. 692691
The brakes came in and looked great. It was like plug a play. I took them out of the package bolted the up to the axle put my hubs on and I was ready to go. The only poor review was that they did not come with nuts so I had to go to 2 different hard ware store to find enough 7/16 20 nuts. That is why I only gave this a 4 instead of a 5. 571129
Mike L - 10/03/2018Brakes came in 2 days, everything looks good. 4 stars because I think the new nuts should be included. 7/16 ths 20 are not that easy to find and my old ones were in bad shape so I wasted an hour. 575818
Easy install(after I worked two days getting the old ones off!) These look like the same breaks the dealers are selling for $64.00 each. I had to replace the four on my 16 year old horse trailer, took it for a drive and keep applying the breaks till they adjusted there self. Very happy with the product and the price and I had free 2 day shipping! 444676
When I called to order, the salesman was extremely helpful. I got the right parts ordered and delivered. However, one of the outer bearings was delivered bent. I called to have the bearings replaced and to ask about other aspects of the install. I was never able to connect to my original salesman (4 attempts) and my request to have their expert installers call me to answer questions was ignored. I never heard back from them. Furthermore, the replacement bearings would take 4-5 business days to deliver. So, I asked about 2nd day delivery. I was quoted $32 for second day air for the bearings! I protested and they split the cost ($16). Everyone I spoke with was extremely nice and professional. But, I suspect that communications within the company need to be improved. They ship out of the St. Louis area so consider the shipping time to your locale. Everything I ordered had a China stamp. But, everything fit without much fuss; we'll see how it goes once I start moving stock with this thing. I'll order from them again. But, I won't start a rebuild until I've closely inspected what they send me. 494258
Bryan - 04/09/2019Awesome service fit was perfect, sorry about this but I wish they came with new mounting hardware because of odd size of nuts 7/16 fine thread. 690233
Leon G - 08/17/2020
Product worked fantastic!!! Hally was a great help in ordering the partsbrakrs, hud tires and rims. Had them on for over a year and many miles with absolutely no problems. 938798
I was originally looking for just parts to rebuild the brakes on our project trailer when I ran across these. I chose the self adjusting for the ease of it and the parts have worked great. Bolted right up to our axel and have had no problems. Like everything else I own we have abused them beyond their original purpose. 938076
