Constructed of tough, weatherproof extruded aluminum, the Hydrastar electric-over-hydraulic brake actuator will give you years of trailer-stopping performance. The actuator installs on your trailer, then splices into its wiring and connects to its hydraulic brake line. Reacting to electric signals sent from your in-cab electric brake controller when you apply the brakes in your tow vehicle, the Hydrastar applies pressure to the hydraulic system, thus activating the trailer's brakes. You get responsive hydraulic braking, which you control conveniently from inside your vehicle with your electric brake controller. The Hydrastar actuator meets all Department of Transportation regulations and complies with CFR-393 federal braking requirements.
Not all electric brake controllers work with this hydraulic brake actuator. See the following table to determine compatibility with common models of electric brake controllers. Certain models require the Hydrastar control adapter module (HBA-CAM; sold separately) to work with the Hydrastar electric-over-hydraulic brake actuator. For best performance, it is recommended that you use an aftermarket electric brake controller rather than an OEM factory-installed controller.

Enjoy convenience as you achieve greater braking control and performance.As of now I'm very excited to put this new product on my trailer.
These are the pics I took when I was done. Took two days to do but we'll worth it. I took pics after first load and now it feels good to actually stop with out wondering if the magnets were going to fail. I appreciate the fast shipping . The only thing I had to pick up was 25 feet of brake line,15 feet was not going to be anough . Other then this. I love it. Thank you very much and God bless
Absolutely amazing. All the precision control of electric brakes with the advantages of hydraulic disc brakes. It was a relatively straight forward installation. I paired the Hydrastar actuater with Kodiac 4 wheel disc brakes. My boat and trailer weigh about 9,500 pounds. I've never had braking in a trailer this good before. I actually had to turn the sensitivity down on the cab controller. Totally worth it. I highly recommend the Hydrastar actuater, especially when paired with Kodiac 4 wheel disc brakes.
Installed on my 2009 Keystone Fuzion FZ302. I was very impressed by the fit and finish. What a difference in braking!! I don't think I will ever own a trailer with electric drums again. I was able to install all four in about 6 hours. This was taking my time to ensure all clearances were exact. The only thing I ran into was the sticky weights on my 16" wheels just touched the caliber. I had the wheels rebalanced with clip weights on the inside and we are now all good.
In the video the last box is the one with the hydraulic pump, the only one that had no damage because it was well packed, good job
Installation went easy after watching their installation video brake lines were easy to install had to purchase extra fittings (purchased through E TRAILER) to make it fit the way the way needed
Great Product, I installed a four disc brake system in one afternoon and the pump works great. Now my 40ft. trailer stops my truck.
Parts look good only 2 bolts missing
very easy to install , well build . But need to by extra fluid lines, 40 feet trailer will need more fluid line.
Pretty easy installation
One year in and still no problems and functioning great.
great, it fit perfectly
