Picking out brake assemblies for trailer axles is actually pretty easy but I am not able to determine the info I need from your trailer info since it's not something manufacturers keep records of. You do need to order a total quantity of 4 assemblies since
To pick out the correct brake assemblies for your trailer you need to know a few things.
You will want to measure the inner diameter of your hub/drums and the depth of the drums to determine what brake assembly dimensions you need. For example the part # 23-27 is a 10 inch by 2-1/4 inch thick brake assembly for the right hand side of the trailer then for the matching left hand side you'd need # 23-26 or for a set for a single axle the # 23-26-27 that you referenced.
You also want to determine what the bolt pattern is of your assembly mounting flange. The standard size is 4 on 4 inch. You also want to determine the axle capacity of your trailer and go with an assembly that has the same rating, the # 23-27 has a 3,500 lb capacity.
