Question:
Do you have any specifications as to the thickness of a new Dexter 10inch Electric brake shoe? I repacked the bearings today on my trailer and I took readings around each shoe to figure out how much brake material was left. Ill track this for next year- but it would be nice to know how much break material comes with these shoes when they are new. I cant find this information on the dexter web site either. Thanks!

I went out into our warehouse to measure the pad thickness of a Dexter 3,500 10 by 2-1/4 inch brake assembly like the part # 23-468 and just the brake pad portion of the shoe measured .18 of an inch.
The entire shoe thickness was .29 of an inch and the metal portion of the shoe measured .11 of an inch.
