When you apply the brakes in your tow vehicle, deceleration occurs and momentum pushes your trailer toward the rear of your vehicle. With surge brake systems, the hydraulic actuator is triggered as your trailer moves forward, once your tow vehicle starts to slow down. When this happens, the actuator contracts, applying force to its master cylinder. This in turn supplies the necessary hydraulic pressure to engage your trailer's brakes.
Manual Reverse Lockout
This actuator has a manual reverse lockout that you can activate so that you can back up without triggering your trailer's disc brakes. To activate the lockout, just rotate the tab on the side of the actuator to the left. Once the lockout has been activated, you can back up your trailer without triggering the trailer brakes. Always remember to restore the tab to its original position before towing normally.
Sturdy, Corrosion-Resistant Construction
Made of sturdy steel, this hydraulic trailer brake actuator features a durable zinc coating that is designed to limit rust and corrosion. This zinc coat has a 200-hour salt spray rating. In addition, the composite master cylinder is made of corrosion-resistant glass-reinforced nylon to further ensure durability.

view full answer... - Actuator Needed to Use Demco Manual Reverse Lockout Kit For Hydraulic Brake ActuatorsNo; the Demco Hydraulic Trailer Brake Actuator # DM72VR is designed for use with free-backing brake systems and does not have a lockout feature- so you wouldn't be able to use the Manual Reverse Lockout Kit # DM5939 with that actuator.

This kit requires 1/2" x 4-1/2" Grade 5 bolts (not included) for mounting as well as a coupler similar to # CT-5003-Z...

- Recommended Replacement Surge Brake Actuator For Atwood 85778 For Drum Brakes or Disc Brake UpgradeYou are correct that parts are no longer available for your Atwood 85778 brake actuator. I recommend the Demco Hydraulic Brake Actuator w/ Manual Lockout # DM8760011 as a replacement if you wish to keep your drum brakes. A Demco Trailer Coupler # DM12688-95 will attach to the 3" channel on the actuator for a 2" ball connection. It really comes down to if you are happy with the performance of your current drum brakes. I like seeing disc brakes used in heavy duty applications, on boat...
view full answer... - Is Lockout Solenoid Included With Titan Brake Actuator Coupler # T4750700The Titan Zinc-Plated Brake Actuator, part # T4750700 you referenced does not have a solenoid included. There are three types of systems you can choose from. Either a system like part # T4750700 that has no solenoid, a coupler with manual lockout, or brake couplers with an electric solenoid lockout. If you are wanting a brake coupler with an electric lockout I recommend the Titan Zinc-Plated Brake Actuator w/ Drop Electric Lockout, part # T4750720. This has the same features as the coupler...
