Weld-on, surge-type actuator features a primed finish, durable construction and an efficient roller design to reduce resistance. Coupler sold separately. Designed for use with drum brakes.
Features:
Specs:
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 actuator is triggered as your trailer moves forward while the tow vehicle slows. The actuator telescopes, applying force to its master cylinder, which in turn supplies the necessary hydraulic pressure to engage the trailer's brakes.
Because this model does not include a reverse lockout, it is recommended that you equip your trailer with free-backing brakes so that you can drive in reverse without triggering your trailer's brakes.

Speaker 1: Today we're going to take a look at the Titan Weld On Drum Brake Actuator with a 12,500 pound weight capacity. Now this hydraulic actuator will synchronize your trailer brakes with your tow-vehicle brakes. Basically what happens is when you apply the brakes in your tow-vehicle deceleration occurs, and the momentum will push your trailer toward the route of your vehicle, so with surge brake systems the actuator's triggered as your trailer moves forward once your tow vehicle start to slow down. When this happens, the actuator here will contract, and it applies force to the master cylinder that's on the inside here, and this in turn supplies the necessary hydraulic pressure to engage your trailer brakes.This is a unique roller design, reduces resistance during the telescoping to create straight-line movement. You can see it has a grease zerk fitting on the end of the roller, makes for easy lubrication. This is a sturdy, durable steel construction.
Resists bending in any jackknife situations. Now, the coupler that installs right to here, that is sold separately. It does include this breakaway kit. You can see this long chain, if I unravel it, hooked to this lever here, so this you'll hook to your tow vehicle, and in an emergency situation where the trailer could become disconnected, it'll automatically pull that lever and lock up the brakes in your trailer.This does have a nice primed finish to it. It is a weld-on installation.
Specs on this again, the application is for hydraulic drum brakes. The mounting on this, the coupler you use would have a 3" wide channel tongue that the coupler would slide into. Capacity on this is 12,500 pounds. Maximum tongue weight capacity is 1,250 pounds, and one last note I do want to mention, is because this actuator does not include a reverse lockout here on the rear, it is recommended that you equip your trailer with free-backing brakes so that you can drive in reverse without the actuator triggering your trailer brakes.That should do it for the review on the Titan Weld On Drum Brake Actuator with a 12,500 weight capacity.
