Features to know about

Effortless Reversing: Free-Backing Design

Backing up trailers can be tricky, but with the Free-Backing Design, you can reverse without the brakes being engaged. Even if your surge actuator is activated, the brakes remain disengaged, allowing you to maneuver smoothly without worrying about brake lock-up.

Rust-Resistant Durability: Dacromet Coated Backing Plates

Ideal for those dealing with saltwater or snowy conditions, the Dacromet coating on the backing plates provides superior corrosion resistance. This marine-grade feature ensures your brakes last longer, making them perfect for boat or snowmobile trailers.

Long-Lasting Friction Material: Automotive-Grade Brake Shoes

Experience reliable stopping power with automotive-grade friction material that’s molded to the brake shoes. Fully bonded (not riveted), the pads last longer, provide more braking torque, and prevent issues like cracking or crumbling, ensuring consistent performance over time.

Optimized Safety Compliance: CSA and QAI Certified

Feel confident with brake assemblies that meet Canadian Standards Association (CSA) requirements and are QAI tested. These certifications guarantee that the brakes are safe and perform well even under real-world conditions, offering peace of mind on every journey.

Precision and Control: Manual Adjust with Fine-Tooth Gears

Keep your brakes finely tuned with periodic manual adjustments. The fine-tooth gear system allows for precise brake settings, ensuring optimal performance whether you're navigating steep descents or cruising down the highway.

Reliable Marine-Ready Construction: Stainless Steel and Aluminum Components

Built to withstand harsh environments, this brake kit features stainless steel springs and aluminum hydraulic cylinders resistant to rust. Designed for saltwater applications, it’s a dependable choice for those who regularly tow in challenging conditions.

Specs

Application

  • Application: most standard hub-and-drum assemblies, including Dexter, Lippert (LCI), and AL-KO

Dimensions

  • Dimensions: 10" diameter x 2-1/4" wide
  • Mounting flange bolt pattern: 4 bolt
  • Wheel size: 14" and 15"

Performance Specifications

  • Axle rating: 3,500 lbs

  • How To Determine If Boat Trailer has 10 Inch or 12 Inch Brake Assemblies
    When determining if you need 10 inch or 12 inch brake assemblies there are a couple of easy things to check to confirm the fit for your trailer. The first thing is you can measure the diameter of your hub. The second thing is you can look at the brake flange, if it has 4 bolts then it is 10 inch if it has 5 then it is 12 inch. Because you know you have a #84 spindle we can be confident that you have a 3,500 lb axle and you will need the 10 inch assemblies. I recommend the Hydraulic...

  • Replacement Brakes and Bearings for 1993 Mastercraft Boat Trailer
    Before you choose brakes or bearings you should verify what's currently on your trailer. If it is a 3,500 pound axle part # AKEBRK-35-SA will likely fit if the trailer has electric drum brakes. Both sides are included and labeled. They're also self-adjusting so you only need to set the adjustment when you first install them and then leave them alone. You can measure the inner diameter of your drums to find if this fit or not. One of two bearing kits is likely what you need. You should...

  • My Surge Brakes Are Activating When I Back Up My Trailer - What Can I Do?
    Hello Gregg, I think I can help shed some light on what is going on. Basically, there are two ways to stop surge brakes from actuating when backing up the trailer. The first and most popular way to do this is to use a surge brake actuator with a reverse lockout. For example, the Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator # DX56FR has an electric lockout. The solenoid is wired to the reverse light circuit on the tow vehicle. This way when the vehicle is put in reverse, the actuator will be locked...

  • Replacement Hub and Drums and Brakes for EZ Loader Boat Trailer
    If you are going to replace the axles and hubs then our hubs will come with the proper bearings. But in order to determine the correct bearings you would either need to replace the axles first and then tell me which axles you have so I can find hubs to match or if the axles are exactly the same as the old axles you could tell me the inner and outer bearing numbers stamped into the sides of the bearings. I checked the EZ loader site and did not see replacement axles as an option so I am...

  • How to Find Replacement Drum Brake Assembly for Boat Trailer
    I can tell you exactly how to find compatible drum brake assemblies, though I took a look and could not find any type of reference to Dico 40511. To determine the brake assemblies that will fit your 2002 Escort boat trailer, you need to know your axle's weight capacity, your mounting flange bolt pattern and the inside diameter and depth of your drum. For example, Hydraulic Brake Kit # AKFBBRK-35-D are rated for 3,500 lb axles, have a 4-bolt mounting flange pattern and measure 10" diameter...

  • Replacement Brakes System to Upgrade 2006 Sea Doo Boat Trailer
    I'm happy to help with all the parts for your 2006 Sea Doo trailer. I did a little research and it appears it is a single axle trailer, for which I recommend the following parts: -Kodiak Disc Brake Kit - 10" Hub/Rotor - 5 on 4-1/2 - Dacromet - 3,500 lbs # K2HR35D -Kodiak Hydraulic Brake Line Kit - Single Axle - 18' # 18SI-BLKIT -Demco Hydraulic Brake Actuator w/ Electric Lockout - Disc - Zinc - 2" Ball - 7,000 lbs # DM62VR This combination is what I would use for excellent trailer brakes...

  • Replacement Timbren Axle-Less System and Hydraulic Brake Assembly for 3,500 lb Axles on Boat Trailer
    I would love to help you upgrade your suspension components! I am guessing that you have 3,500 lb axles on your trailer but if you could verify that it would help me to make sure that I recommend the correct parts for you. Also, are you looking to add brakes to both axles or just keep them on one pair? You would get more braking power and less wear with brakes on all of the axles but if you only want them on one then that will also play into the parts.

  • Complete Hydraulic Drum Brake Kit for Boat Trailer With 3,500 lb Axles
    I would need some more information before setting you up. What is your axle's weight capacity? Do you have an idler hub or hub and drum? What size are your wheels? I'm going to send you a link to a couple of help articles on what you'll need to add brakes and if you can get back to me with more info I'd be more than happy to help.

  • Replacement Brake Assemblies and Brake Line for 3,500 Hydraulic Trailer Brakes
    Do you by chance have a 3,500 ALKO axle 8500? Or an 8,500 lb axle? I believe you'd have the 3,500 lb axle but wanted to be sure. For 3,500 assemblies you'd want the part # AKFBBRK-35-D as replacing all of the individual parts you mentioned would end up costing more and be more labor intensive. For a brake line kit then we have the part # 9504 which would fit and work well.

  • How Do You Back a Boat Trailer On The Boat Ramp When The Electric Lockout Is Unplugged?
    You typically have a couple options Steve. The most commonly used is just waiting until the boat is on the ramp and then unplugging the wiring. This way you can let gravity take the boat down the ramp rather than pushing it with your truck. Another option which will depend on your surge brake is a manual lockout like the Key # DX94FR. This prevents the actuator from sliding and the brakes from activating in reverse. If you can tell me the model number off your actuator I can see if there...

  • Replacement Hydraulic Drum Brakes, Hub/Drum, and A-60 Actuator for 3,500 lb Axles on Boat Trailer
    We have exactly what you're needing! For replacing your hub/drum assemblies you need the kit # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K (2 per axle) and then for the brakes you need the kit # AKFBBRK-35-D (1 per axle). The actuator is a little different simply because there are multiple styles for installing the actuator on your trailer coupler so you'll want to look through these options to see which A-60 best matches your current A-60 actuator: - Top Mount 3-Bolt # 099-175-00 - Top Mount 3-Bolt # DX33FR ...

  • Recommended Brake Line Kit for a Boat Trailer
    When it comes to picking out the correct brakes for your boat trailer you're going to want to gear toward anything that has a dacromet coating. This is going to give your brake superior corrosion resistance which is ideal since you'll be dealing with water often. As far as using rubber lines versus using steel lines, I'd recommend going with rubber lines. Reason being, rubber lines are going to be much easier to deal with than steel and will not deteriorate nearly as fast as steel would,...

  • Replacement For Atwood 83000, 83010 Drum Brake Actuator & 10 Inch Free Backing Drum Brakes
    So the Atwood 83000, 83005, 83010 brake actuators are obsolete, and Atwood is no longer in business so there isn't a replacement master cylinder. You'll need to replace the whole actuator, and for one like the Atwood with the same 8,000 lb capacity that connects to a 2 inch hitch ball and mounts to a 3 inch trailer tongue, use the following from Demco: - Demco Hydraulic Brake Actuator # DM8609101 I do recommend sticking with drum brakes as there isn't a set of disc brakes for your spindle,...

  • Replacement Hubs and Brakes for UFP HD-1877-10
    I reached out to Dexter and found that the UFP-HD-1877-10 fits a standard 3,500 lb axle. For a hub and drum replacement you can use the # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K or for a galvanized option # AKHD-545-35-G-EZ-K. Then for hydraulic drum brakes you can use the # AKUBRK-35 or # AKFBBRK-35-D with a Dacromet coating. I have attached some installation videos below for your reference.

  • Replacement For 3,500 lb Hydraulic Drum Brake Assembly For Boat Trailer
    So you're going to have to change out your hub and drum as well as tires to get a replacement brake assembly. The issue is your current drum being only 8.5” diameter x 2-1/4” wide; there are no brakes that fit that size drum. I appreciate all the info you provided and based on that, here is what you'll need: - Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 3,500-lb Axles - 10" Diameter - 5 on 4-1/2 - Galvanized # AKHD-545-35-G-K - Hydraulic Brake Kit - Uni-Servo - Free Backing - Dacromet - 10" - Left/Right...

  • Can Electric Brakes Be Used On Boat Trailer?
    There's plenty of new boat trailer manufacturer's using electric brakes on boat trailers, so you can absolutely do it, but there are a few key things. If you're removing the electrical connector before backing into the water like most do, you won't have trailer brakes which could make launching the boat interesting depending how heavy your boat is compared to the weight of your vehicle. Modern trailer wiring and brake assemblies are designed to be safe to be submerged for launching a...

  • What Does "No Lockout" Mean?
    "No Lockout" means that this particular actuator # T47457007K does not have a built-in reverse lockout. Meaning that driving the trailer in reverse will actuate the brakes. You can add a reverse lockout to the actuator by adding a Reverse Lockout Solenoid # T4748800. Alternatively, you could also use free backing brakes such as part # AKFBBRK-35-D. The free backing design allows for backing up without engaging the trailer brakes.

    The # DM5939 is only compatible with the DA91 like the # DM8759131. Unfortunately, there is no option for manual lockout on a DA70 like the # # DM72VR. There are two ways you can keep your brakes from locking up with this brake actuator. The first is to add a solenoid like the # DM11993. The other option you have is to switch out the brakes on your trailer with free backing brakes like # AKFBBRK-35-D. These brakes won't engage in reverse so there would be no need to add a lockout to your...
