With repeated use of these brake assemblies, the brake shoes may move out of alignment, causing less efficient braking performance. To keep the brake shoes aligned and the brake assemblies performing correctly, you should perform routine maintenance.
These brake assemblies should be adjusted after installation and then as needed for the life of the brakes. To adjust the brakes, use a brake adjustment screw tool (sold separately) to turn the adjustment gear on the inside of the assemblies. Continue to turn the gear until the drum surrounding the brake catches on the brake pads enough so that the hub can no longer be turned easily by hand. Then reverse the gear by about 10 clicks. A properly adjusted brake should drag slightly on the brake drum.
These brake assemblies meet the requirements for certification by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). The CSA creates standards, which when complied with ensure a safe and quality product. These brake assemblies underwent extensive testing to measure stopping distances when braking. These brakes have also been tested by QAI for braking performance in a complete automotive setup and under real-world conditions to provide the most realistic scenario for the everyday driver.
Each shoe on these brake assemblies is lined with automotive-grade friction material for improved stopping performance and longevity. The friction material is fully bonded onto the surface of the brake shoe. This lining is custom-molded for a perfect fit. The edges are tapered to ensure long-lasting performance. This taper, along with the circular grinding that the lining undergoes, helps to prevent cracking and crumbling. This durability helps to prevent mechanical lockup, which can occur when brake shoes are excessively worn or broken.
The friction material is also SAE-N certified, which means that it is an environmentally safe product that complies with California and Washington regulations regarding the composition of brake pads. As a result, this material not only provides high-performance braking that can endure the test of time, but it is also environmentally friendly and safe for use throughout the United States and Canada.

Fit 14-1/2" to 16-1/2" wheels.Have had the brakes installed on my trailer for a year and so far all systens are a go, and when I say go, it’s all about stopping. I use my trailer and it is exposed to extreme salt conditions. Every few years the brakes and shoes are replaced for safety.
This company and my agent was amazing and that is hard to find into days world, thank you Odelia you were great I have your extension and will be calling you back in the future, sincerely BOZ
I needed to upgrade my boat trailer from free-wheeling spindles to electric brakes because my new tow vehicle has a 5,000 pound tow rating only if the trailer has brakes. The brakes will be immersed only in fresh water but I chose the brake kit with Dacromet coating just to assure maximum protection from rust and corrosion. After removing the original spindles and cleaning the old grease from the axle I installed the new brake assemblies. They fit perfectly and seem to be of solid construction. Without the self adjusting mechanism it keeps these brakes assemblies very simple and making a manual adjustment periodically is no problem. I am pleased with the quality of this product.
So far so good, after one year. Non-rust resistant lasted 3 years...
You are the best thank you for all your help, sincerely BOZ
After replacing the trailer brake (OEM) with these brakes I can tell a difference when braking. I'm now getting shorter braking distances with them and I feel safer using them. Thanks
they are very helpful they no what you need
Product was delivered on time. Just what I ordered. Great place to deal with.
all is good
Bolted right up to my Dexter axle, no issues at all with installation. Paint coating appears very nice. This is a very economical way to replace your brakes and magnets.
Good parts, great service
Excellent service
Great personal service, staff has always been extremely helpful and patient with a do-it yourself’r like me!!
Received my brakes and box was torn. Box was flimsy and not made to hold 4 sets of brakes. Need to work on better shipping methods. I hope they work
I was very pleased with the expert and friendly guidance that I received when purchasing the trailer brakes and suspension components. The staff was thorough in ensuring I had the correct components for the weight and use of my trailer.
Great service and quick shipping.
Good fit and stopping just fine now!
I replaced the original brakes, grease seals and bearings on a 2013 3 axle toy hauler because they looked rough and I was preparing for a 4-5 month vacation on the road.
Etrailer is my go-to favorite place.
Real nice coating. Like the dacromet
Excellent pieces, Have had zero issues with 4 of them on my tandem axle boat trailer and they work the way they should. huge upgrade from the quirky surge brakes they replace.
A great product maybe not as good as the expensive stuff but works well and for the price you can change them out every couple of years(it takes about 30 to 45 min. per wheel to do once your tools are out and ready) as I do. I pull a 32ft race trailer that weights 14000 pounds with a 2000 tongue weight and for me it is just easier to replace everything!!!
Parts fit perfect, seemed to be good quality working just fine for over a year now.
The electric trailer brake assemblies appear to be well made and fit perfectly. Delivery was great and actually arrived a day earlier than expected, which helped me a lot. I was concerned about the packaging with the heavy items only wrapped in paper and loose in a large box. Fortunately, there did not appear to be any damage or missing parts. So far I am very happy with the brakes and hope the last a long time.
Replaced all the brakes on my horse trailer. product works fine with no problems. My only complaint is that when assembled no lubricant was applied to the points on the backing plate where the brake shoes rest. This required removing the brake shoes and remounting them before installing them.
Brakes arrived fast. A mechanic friend of mine installed the brakes. Tested the brakes a few days later and they seemed to work fine. After one camping trip I traded for a new 5th wheel so don't know how they are performing for the new owners. BUT I was happy for the short time I used them. Thanks etrailer.
