Driver's-side electric brake measures 12" x 2". Brake pads are made of durable friction material for improved braking and longevity. E-coated backing plate resists rust. Fits 14-1/2", 15", 16", and 16-1/2" wheels.

Specs:
With repeated use of this brake assembly, the brake shoes may move out of alignment, causing less efficient braking performance. To keep the brake shoes aligned and the brake assembly performing correctly, you should perform routine maintenance.
This brake assembly should be adjusted after installation and then as needed for the life of the brake. To adjust the brake, use a brake adjustment screw tool (sold separately) to turn the adjustment gear on the inside of the assembly. 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.
This brake assembly meets the requirements for certification by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). The CSA creates standards, which when complied with ensure a safe and quality product. This brake assembly underwent extensive testing to measure stopping distances when braking. This brake has 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 this brake assembly 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.

Brooke M - 10/24/2022Mounted up nicely and works like it sho uld
Dan B - 12/14/2022Both of these assemblies were easy to install and worked very well. Great products and service.
Simple to install. Exact replacement for my 5000 lb empty 1995 sundowner horse trailer. Powerful. Plenty of pad left after a yr. Ttuck stips better with the trailer in tow!
I have not installed them yet since I only received them less than 1 hour ago but they arrived fairly quickly(1 day late .. ups never gets on time here) and in great shape. I foresee no issues!!
Great deal on the assembly
prompt delivery, easy installation, only time will tell how they hold up over time.
Bolted up fine and worked well during one season so far.
Everything fits perfect thanks for fast shipping
Perfect fit
34 ft Airstream, replaced all six brakes as shown. Product performs as designed. I am totally unhappy with the way the trailer stops. What I am describing is not the item's fault. I am shortly going to purchase a complete Kodiak disc brake set-up from etrailer. The point of my story here is that...don't waste your money on the replacing old & inadequate technology with the same. These electric drum brake set-ups stop only with one shoe...the other shoe is there to stop when backing up. The stopping distance with disc brake is said to improve by 75%!
Wolf G - 05/28/2020The part fit as advertised and excellent quality
Delivered promply & as advertised
They are still stopping my trailer. Good product. Would buy again.
Excellent choice. I am very happy with my order. My trailer was done in no time. Brakes I ordered fit perfectly. Now it's done and I am happy and so as everyone on the road. Thanks etrailer.
These brakes are excellent. I have had zero issues with them since the day they were installed.
NOTE: On average I haul around 8K lbs and also not often so take my review with a grain of salt. Sometimes the load is heavy (a front end loader) and other times it's not (trash run). Either scenario, no issues. A quick gain adjustment and brake check and I'm gone. I checked the bearing play after a week or so and around the 8 month mark. Both times were A+. I think I'm 17 months into ownership. They're still working flawlessly.
When new, these drums had little OOR (out-of-round) which surprised me. Most drums have some sort of noticeable OOR. These no so much. My trailer stops quietly and effortlessly now. No pulsation, skipping, tugging, etc.
Would I buy these again? ABSOLUTELY!!

I ordered 4 non-self adjusting brake sets and recieved 2 self adjusting right sides and 2 non-self adjusting left sides. I needed the project to be complete and I installed them. When i tok the out of the boxs, there was some rebuilding as things were out of alignment from shipping. Initial adjustments on both sets was a little more time consuming because of the lack of large adjustments, but once set they are great. The electrical hook ups were easy. They stop my 5000+lb camp trailer just fine. Finally, hardware being purchased separately is annoying. They should be packaged together and the hardware should be free with purchase of the brake sets.
Great fit great looks quality tbd, One bummer made in China stamp on back. Etrailer shipping tracking and price100% good.
Jim J - 06/14/2017I needed to replace the electric brakes on my 5th wheel because of inner bearing seal failure. Grease on the brake linings can be a recipe for disaster. eTrailer had the most competitively priced brake sets and the tech support was superb in helping me choose the proper replacement parts for my RV. I won’t hesitate returning to eTrailer for my future RV needs and can and do recommend the site to my friends when asked about RV parts.

Hi , I change all the original bearings on my trailer last year . The new bearing seem to be working well and not heating up. The brake assembly was purchased as a spare and ready to go next time I work on the drums and brakes. I have a 2010 NASH 25P travel trailer . Price is good when I purchase your produce in Canadian dollars .
These guy's at etrailer are hard to beat! Customer care is over the top. That's why Allison Creek does business with etrailer.
It is a pleasure to conduct business with etrailer.
Your customer service department was able to answer my questions in detail and your instructional videos were very informative. Of specific relevance was a video about installation of a brake controller in a Super Duty Ford. The local "boys" confidently claimed that my truck was not factory wired for a controller! I knew better but could not find the connector. Your video clearly showed me the connector's location. I will be installing the Hayes proportional brake controller this week and expect the installation to go smoothly.
The 12" brake assemblies that I ordered were a great value, were of good quality, and were delivered promptly.
etrailer will be my trailer parts supplier in the future.
Thank you,
John P
Shipment was missing the washers and 3/8" UNF locking nuts. I was in a rush to get my suspension system and hubs on as the shipment took three additional weeks to get to me due to manufacturer back order. eTrailer did great keeping me informed. I had to go out an get the parts at the local hardware store and will install when I have time. Overall, seems like a quality product.
Installed all 4 brakes on 5th wheel trailer with slight adjustments worked great on 400 mile trip through the mountain's. Had to turn down brake controller voltage after the first 200 miles because brakes were working better than manufacturer brakes.
