Reliable electric drum brake system for enhanced towing safety and performance.
The Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Assembly is designed to provide efficient braking for trailers with a 4400 pound axle capacity. This assembly features a 10 inch diameter and 2-1/4 inch width, making it suitable for various trailer applications. The electric brake system operates similarly to automotive drum brakes, utilizing an electromagnet for actuation, which ensures a quick response time when the tow vehicle's brakes are engaged.
This brake assembly is manually adjustable at the controller, allowing users to tailor the braking capability to different road and load conditions. The modulated braking force helps to ease the load on the towing vehicle, enhancing overall towing performance. In emergency situations, the electric brakes can provide independent braking, adding an extra layer of safety.
Included in the assembly are essential components such as the backing plate, brake shoes, magnets, actuating lever, adjusting screw, and spring hardware. The installation process is straightforward, with an estimated time of just half an hour. This product is an essential component for maintaining safe and effective braking on your trailer.
