Reliable electric drum brake system for enhanced towing safety.
The Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Assembly is designed for 7000 pound axles, featuring a 12 inch diameter and 2 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 precise braking control, making it suitable for various road and load conditions.
The assembly includes essential components such as backing plates, brake shoes, magnets, actuating levers, adjusting screws, and spring hardware, ensuring a comprehensive solution for trailer braking needs. The manual adjustment feature allows users to fine-tune the braking capability, providing flexibility in response to different towing scenarios. In emergency situations, the electric brakes can function independently of the tow vehicle, enhancing safety.
Manufactured in the USA, this brake assembly is engineered for durability and reliability, making it a critical component for safe trailer operation. The installation process is straightforward, with an estimated time of just half an hour, allowing for quick setup and use.
