Expert Reply:

The reverse lockout solenoid you recently purchased, part # T4748800, is intended for use in a number of actuators from Titan and Dico, including newer production of the Titan Model 10 Drum Brake Actuator. In these applications the valve, with its 1/8-27 fine pipe threads, should be a direct fit.

Please note that it is necessary to remove the orifice connector (part # T1209800) from the back of the Model 10 actuator before installing the reverse lockout solenoid.

If your Model 10 is from 2000 or earlier my contact at Titan advises that you can use the Titan Replacement Solenoid Adapter Fitting for Titan Model 10 Brake Actuators, part # T4750200. This has a 1/2-20 NPT thread on the male end (that mates to the master cylinder) and a 1/8 NPT thread on the female side (where the solenoid attaches).

We recommend the addition of a solenoid shield to protect the solenoid after installation; you can use part # T4835800183 from Titan. The linked video illustrates both solenoid and shield installation.
