Marine-grade, free-backing hydraulic drum brakes won't engage in reverse, even if your actuator is activated. Automotive-grade friction pads are long-lasting. Dacromet-coated backing plates resist rust. Fit 13" to 15" wheels.
Features:
Specs:
Note: Because free-backing brakes are designed to eliminate nearly all friction between the brake shoes and the drum when you are driving in reverse, a trailer breakaway kit will not be effective should your trailer disconnect from your tow vehicle while you are backing up.
Free-backing brakes let your trailer move in reverse without the brakes being activated by your surge actuator. These brakes are needed if your actuator does not have a reverse lockout, which is a mechanism that ensures that the actuator does not activate when your rig moves in reverse.
Each of these free-backing hydraulic brake assemblies has a fall-away shoe, which provides full braking when your trailer is moving forward, but supplies only limited friction when the trailer is moving in reverse. During normal forward braking, the fall-away shoe expands to catch your brake drum. When driving in reverse, however, the fall-away shoe's extra spring will overcome the pressure from the brake cylinder. This keeps the leading edge from catching on the drum, so the shoe will not fully pivot into the drum. This exerts a smaller amount of friction, just enough to provide a minimal amount of braking when in reverse.
These trailer brake assemblies act as part of your trailer's hydraulic braking system. A hydraulic trailer brake actuator is required for these brakes to function.
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.

Excellent product that replaced 25 year old brakes on a boat trailer at a fraction of the price that local dealers wanted for them. I found all of the parts I needed by searching the site and everything installed very easily. 562004
by: Dennis04/04/2018
shipped fast, with no surprises when I opened the box,( like missing parts ). Installation went great, haven't been able to use the trailer yet, so only 4 stars 492468

My hydraulic brake kit arrived in a very timely way. Great customer service! The four mounting bolts are pressed into the back plate. But the kit doesn't come with the appropriate nuts. Ah, nuts! Back to the hardware store. 545794
The installation hardware is sold separately as part # BRKH10B
Mounting Hardware for 10" Brake Assemblies
$4.93.

Ordering on ETrailer was great. Lisa helped me find the perfect brakes for my boat trailer. I received them quickly and have installed them. Very happy. 378013
by: Jeff05/07/2018
Great brakes, work very well. Bolts would be helpful, 7/16 -20 bolts are a hard find, had to go to a specialty hardware store to find them. 505415
The brake assemblies use integrated studs to attach to the brake mounting flange, not bolts, as stated in the product description. Lock washers and 716 inch nuts are available as part # BRKH10B
Mounting Hardware for 10" Brake Assemblies
$4.93. Each set includes enough nuts and lock washers for attaching two brake assemblies.

Very, very prompt shipping! Customer svc rep very knowledgeable about hydraulic trailer brakes. Packaging ensured product arrived without damage. TWO NOTES: The brake line threads were not "well cut" on the right side wheel cylinder. To solved needed to "re-tap" the threads-- additional time required-- To make kit 'complete'--add 8 lock nuts to the package--will add about $0.80 to the kit and solve customers frustration of trying to find lock nuts with 5/8" across the flats. 11/16" across the flats will not work as too close to the welded axle on the mounting flange 385816
Thanks for the follow up and reply. I did want to let you know that part BRKH10B is available and is linked as a related item. This item included 8 nuts and lockwashers.

I just received everything that I ordered. I had a question about how to measure for something so I called the customer service line and was quickly able to talk to a knowledgeable person who answered my questions. The products arrived and are exactly what I ordered. 387878

Matched and replaced the OEM brakes on our boat trailer with no issues. The directions which came with them the brakes were not clear on which way to turn the "Brake Adjustment Star" for adjusting the contact of the brakes. The directions did not indicate rotation of the Adjustment Star being different from the left to right side brakes. This created some confusion due to the left side adjusted with no issue but cause the right side to be difficult until correction direction of rotation was determined. These brake work great and we are very pleased with all the other products we have purchased from etrailer.com 542275

This review is for the Hydraulic Brake Kit - Uni-Servo - Free Backing - Dacromet - 10" - Left/Right Hand - 3,500 lbs - AKFBBRK-35-D. This worked perfectly on my 2008 Bear pontoon trailer with Axis branded 3,500 lb tandem axles and hydraulic surge brakes on one axle. It all went together smoothly without issue and after repacking the bearings and bleeding the system, the brakes now work again. A special thanks to Jameson for your time and recommendation on this kit, it was spot on! 352521
by: Stephen B05/18/2017
No issues with the install. Road tested well. Brake lines were challenging to connect due to the way the connection was recessed on the brake. I also purchased new drums and bearings. For someone who doesn't work on drum brakes often, the parts were easy to install. 381888

Just bought a jet boat project. Everything went great until I inspected the trailer. It turned out to be just as big a project as the boat. Never worked on a trailer before so I went online and found some videos and checked it out. After deciding I could do this I then searched for parts and decided to give etrailer a try. All parts came quickly and the trailer was done in 3 days.I live in Las Vegas and being summer it gets too hot to work outside in the afternoon or I would nave been done in 2 days. All the parts fit perfectly and I couldn't be happier. I would use them again without any hesitation. Thank You etrailer 519408

The loaded marine grade backing plates made my job super easy. The fit was perfect and went smooth. I would like to see new nuts supplied with the studded backing plate. My order was processed fast and I received it quickly. Packaging was great. 500824

I recently ordered a master cylinder and two complete drum brake assemblies for my 1985 Mastercraft ski boat trailer. I received all of the items much quicker that I had expected. The master cylinder was pretty close to being an exact replacement for the 30+ year old assembly I had removed. The drum brake assemblies were exactly the same as the original units saving me a lot of time and money trying to find the parts I would have needed to rebuild the system. 402536

At first had a little problem with my credit card authorization. You all made sure that it went thru and notified me right away to let me know it would ship on time. Not only was the product shipped quickly, but was packaged well and fit perfectly. No problems what so ever. From someone that works in the service industry, you all are an example to others on how it should be done. From the website videos to the support to the front door, excellent job!!! Will order again!!! 526855

After having to replace my trailers brake system every other year I looked for a rust resistant brake system and one that does not lock up when I back up is a bonus. Fast order processing and free shipping how can you beat that! 583509

Description exactly matched the product. Would have been even better if the would have included the required fine thread nuts. Fit my '93 EZLoader 3500# trailer almost perfectly. One set of nuts had to be worked past some tight clearance. Delivery was very prompt. 392398
