Reliable electric drum brakes for enhanced towing safety and performance.
The Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Assembly is designed for 3500 pound axles, featuring a 10 inch diameter and 2-1/4 inch width. This electric brake system operates similarly to automotive drum brakes, utilizing an electromagnet for actuation instead of hydraulic pressure. This design allows for efficient braking performance tailored to varying road and load conditions.
Manually adjustable at the controller, these brakes provide the necessary braking capability to accommodate different towing scenarios. The system is modulated to adjust the braking force, which helps to ease the load on the towing vehicle. With minimal lag time between the actuation of the tow vehicle's brakes and the trailer's brakes, this assembly ensures a responsive braking experience.
In emergency situations, the Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Assembly can deliver independent braking, enhancing safety during critical moments. The assembly includes essential components such as backing plates, brake shoes, magnets, actuating levers, adjusting screws, and spring hardware, making it a comprehensive solution for trailer braking needs.
