Does the Magnet Get Lubricated when Installing an Electric Trailer Brake Assembly
Question:
I am replacing my electric brakes with never adjust brake units. Do I need to lubricate the magnet where it contacts the hub and what type of lubricant do I use?

Expert Reply:
You do not grease the magnet or where it touches the hub (armature surface). Grease could end up on the pads or where the pads touch the hub and that will cause all sorts of problems. Components that do need lubrication are already lubricated from the factory on brake assemblies that are applicable.
