Perfect for Boat Trailers

Kodiak disc brakes installed on a trailer

If you tow a boat trailer, live in a coastal area, or experience a lot of snow, slush, and salt on the roads, you know how corrosive salt and water can be. Because disc brakes last longer than drum brakes, you should consider how things like rust might impact your trailer over time.


The Dacromet coating on these brakes offers great corrosion protection, even with frequent use in freshwater and saltwater. It can withstand 300 to 400 hours of continual exposure to salt spray before corrosion begins, which is comparable to galvanized steel. So - unless you're driving your trailer through water for 2 weeks straight with no chance for the brakes to dry - it'll be a while before any rust starts to form.


Get a Safer, More Comfortable Ride

Say goodbye to the days of your truck being pushed and pulled by your trailer. Disc brakes provide a safer, more comfortable ride than drum brakes. They offer shorter stopping distances and deliver consistent braking - even at highway speeds. So, you won't have to worry about things crashing around in your trailer or camper next time you reach unexpected traffic on the highway or debate if you can actually stop before that yellow light turns red.


Save Time and Money

More and more people are switching their trailers over to disc brakes. Not only do disc brakes provide more controlled braking than drum brakes, but they also save you money by having fewer parts to maintain.

Unlike drum brakes, which have springs, magnets, and shoes that may need to be continually adjusted or replaced, disc brakes are virtually maintenance-free. There are no springs, cables, or other little components that you'll need to worry about failing.


disc brake caliper and brake pad

The brake pads will naturally wear down, so eventually you'll have to replace them. But these pads are also way easier to replace than drum brake shoes. The caliper - where the pads are housed - is located on the outside of the brake assembly. This means you just have to remove that one part to replace the brake pads rather than having to remove the entire assembly like you would with drum brakes.

This particular kit can save you time and money over other disc brakes on the market as well. A slip-on rotor may be easier to install initially, but water can find its way between the rotor and your existing hub, causing uneven rotor wear or runout. With a 1-piece hub-and-rotor assembly, water and debris can't get in to cause any corrosion or contamination.


In addition, vented rotors, like these, disperse heat faster than non-vented rotors. When brakes retain heat, they are more likely to experience brake fade, or loss of braking power. So even if you take your boat or camper out every weekend, these trailer brakes will continue to offer excellent performance throughout their long life.


mounting bracket supporting disc brake

Kodiak disc brakes have a unique caliper mounting bracket as well. The side-support design puts all of the weight on the mounting bracket instead of on the bolts. This reduces premature wear and extends the life of the bolts, further ensuring optimal performance.


Determining the Bolt Pattern

If you want to remount your existing wheels after installing these brakes, you'll need a kit that offers the same bolt pattern. To determine the bolt pattern, count the number of bolt holes (or lug nuts) on your trailer's wheel. This will give you the first number in the pattern. To find the second number, just measure the distance between a bolt hole and the bolt hole across from it.


diagram showing how to measure even bolt pattern

For example on wheels with an even number of bolt holes: 6 on 5-1/2" means 6 bolt holes with 5-1/2" from the center of 1 hole to the center of the hole across from it.


diagram showing how to measure odd bolt pattern

And with an odd number of bolt holes: 5 on 4-1/2" means 5 bolt holes with 4-1/2" from the center of 1 hole to the farthest edge of one of the 2 farthest bolt holes.

Video Transcript for Review of Kodiak Trailer Brakes - Dacromet Disc Brakes - KOD52FR

Hi there, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a quick look at this Kodiak 13" hub and rotor disc brake assembly set. This set is going to allow you to upgrade your trailer from drum brakes to disc brakes so that you can take advantage of the superior performance that comes along with having disc brakes on your trailer. Having the two brake assemblies here is going to allow you to upgrade a single 8,000 pound capacity Al-Ko or quality type axle with the number 42 spindles. Our rotors are 13 inches in diameter, and as you can see, we've got the 8 on 6 1/2" bolt pattern here with these 5/8" diameter wheel bolts. So these are going to work for your wheels that are 16 inches and larger.

These do have a Dacromet plating on them that's going to resist rust and corrosion. It's got a 300 to 400 hour salt spray rating, so these will be great for your boat trailers, or trailers that are used in coastal areas, or in heavily treated roads where they're gonna be in a lot of contact with salt, which can oftentimes cause degrading and rusting on other materials, and these are gonna hold up really well for you. And in addition to holding up well, these are gonna provide excellent performance. They are going to offer dramatically shorter stopping distances, and we've got the ceramic brake pads that help to increase your stopping power, and a large 2 1/2" diameter stainless steel piston that provides fast responsive braking. So these are going to provide a much smoother, more controlled braking experience than you're probably used to with your drum brakes.

And in addition to better performance, these are also going to require less maintenance. So it's gonna help save you time and money. We do have the one piece hub and rotor assembly, so that reduces the chance of uneven rotor wear. On the side here, we do have the vented design that's gonna help dissipate your heat faster to prevent premature brake pad wear. Now, your brake pads will need to be replaced over time, they will wear down.

But these are going to be very simple to get switched out, and put the new brake pads in. All in all, these are very high quality, automotive grade construction, so they are gonna be very long-lasting for you. You're not gonna have to worry about the small springs and other components, like you do with your drum brakes. So these are going to be a great option if you're looking for a low maintenance, high performance kind of braking. Now, one caveat I will mention, is that your disc brakes do require a higher line pressure than your drum brakes.

So you are gonna need to make sure that you've got a hydraulic brake actuator, and brake lines that are rated for 1500 psi or higher in order to properly activate these disc brakes. And if your trailer isn't already set up for that, we do have those components available here at etrailer.com, but it might take some doing to get your trailer converted to to use that. But I really do think the performance of these is going to be well worth the effort to get it installed. And like I said, we do have all those components available here at etrailer.com. So if you are needing any of those, they're not included in this kit obviously, but we do have those available, sold separately here on our site. This kit is going to include two of these Dacromet plated cast iron hub and rotor assemblies with our 8 5/8" diameter pre-installed wheel bolts on each. We're also gonna get 16 of these 5/8" zinc plated steel lug nuts to hold your wheel in place. We've got the Dacromet plated cast iron calipers, as well as the Dacromet plated, ductile iron caliper mounting brackets on the backside here. So you can see these do have the 4-bolt brake flange configuration. So it is gonna be very simple to get these mounted on your axle. We also have the two stainless steel caliper mounting bolts for each assembly here. In addition to all of that, on the inside here we are going to have our inner and our outer race that are pre-installed for you that will house your inner in your outer bearing so that everything is rotating smoothly around there. This system is lubricated with grease, so you are going to get your two grease seals for the inside here, and then your two Ez lube grease caps and that will thread in place. These do have the plugs that can be removed, so if you have an EZ lube spindle, you can just easily hook up your grease gun, pump some grease in there, and make sure that they're staying well lubricated. So pretty easy to keep up with your maintenance there. So all in all, these are gonna be a really great option, having that increased performance, and that durability of the Dacromet finish. I think you're gonna be very happy with these for a long time to come. So that completes our look for today. Again, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Thanks for watching.
