Video Transcript for Dexter Axle Trailer Brakes BP01-110 Review

Today we're gonna take a look at the replacement trailer brake magnet kit for Dexter and Hayes Alcove 10 inch trailer brakes. This magnet kit will allow you to replace the worn out magnet on your 10 inch trailer brakes, helps you save money and time, because it's better than having to replace the whole brake assembly. This part is designed to work with the following 3500 pound axle brake assemblies. It fits the Dexter 10 inch by 2 1/2 inch brake assemblies, part number 23-26 and 23-27. It fits the Dexter 10 inch by 2 1/4 inch never adjust brake assemblies, part number 23-468 and 23-469, and the Hayes Alcove 10 inch by 2 1/2 inch brake assembly, part number 60202803 and 60202703. As you can see here, it has a nice oval magnet design it.

This increases the efficiency of your brakes and will help extend the life. The sleeve, right here, you'll notice, this will protect the wires from any abrasion. That's the part that goes through the backing plates so if there's any movement you don't want those wires to be cut into. Now, it does the two wires connected so they do need to be connected when you install this. One goes to your brake feed, one goes to a ground, and they're both green wires, so either wire can be used for either function. This part includes everything shown here on the table, the magnet itself, the two springs, and the hold down clip.

A few dimensions on the magnet, just to give you the length of it, from one end to the other is right at 3 5/8 inches long. It's going to be 2 1/8 inches wide, and the overall height of it is right at about 7/8 inches tall. That should do it for the review on the placement trailer brake magnet kit for Dexter and Hayes Alcove 10 inch trailer brakes.

Perfect replacement



by:

All 3 items I ordered have worked as expected. It is great you had everything in stock. This makes choosing ETrailer my first choice.



by:

i ordered an electric brake controller, and it worked perfectly. It came in the time frame as ordered, and was exactly what I had ordered. I took it to a repair shop and the mechanics installed it and, voila, I had brakes!

Im not sure. I traded that trailer in on a new bigger one, so I cant comment for sure, but it was working perfectly when I traded it in.



by:

It was a well done discription and info.. When I got the part it was exactly what I thought. Came real quick and works perfect.



by:

Exact replacement for what I originally had, slipped right on and into place.



by:

Easy to install and work great!



by:

Works well!
Great customer service and
great experience!



by:

Had some difficulty installing until I figured out that removing the entire brake assembly including the backing plate allows bench top installation vs trying to install on the trailer. The magnet works as expected and I now have four wheel brakes instead of three!



by:

My AL-KO axle has the text "AL KO 08 05" stamped into the brake shoes in the hub with 10x2.25 brakes and 4.5 inch bolt circle.
Its not exactly the same as the original AL-KO magnet on my trailer - but from all I could tell a perfect fit. The lead wires are plenty long to reach outside the hub before splicing.
This magnet is just what I needed to replace the magnet who's wires wire sheared off at the backing plate when a tire failed. The reasonable price was nice too!



by:

Still working. It is almost never the magnet that wears, but the wires inside the drum that always seem to wear thru and short on some moving part. Trailer brakes what can I say, the design is an after thought. Like when the cable guy runs the wire in your house...



by:

I bought 4 brake magnets for the RV and they work great. The original magnets each drew different ohm numbers. Two would lock up . I replaced them with your magnets and it brakes consistently every time now. A real easy job too.



by:

Service was great and part was as described. After replacing these it did not solve my brake problem. It was a short in the wire going through the axel. Check that first if your brakes are not working. I replaced the wire an all was good.



by:

Bought a new second had trailer.
Wasn't
sure of the axle make and model.
Stripped out the bearings and found the grease seals rubber lip very hard.
Called E Trailer and Phyllis was excellent in working with me to identify the correct seals but with a double lip.
Ordered and received very smoothly-- as promised.
I am going top fit them tomorrow but have already offered up the OD to the hub and the ID to the spindle and I know that I have the correct seals.
Seals look to be good quality and I expect them to be fine.



by:

Product was good. I was bummed to find out after I purchased these that I could have purchased and entire electronic brake assembly with magnets and brake pads i for not too much more :( My bad for not doing a little more searching before purchasing.



by:

I would never give a review, I have always felt it was a waste of time and I never thought it mattered. I have changed my mind. I ordered some parts for my trailer from an competitor, only because I went to the first site i found on my web search. I was given a good product and I cant complain about their service. What I want you to know that when I had to buy some more parts to complete my project, I had a friend recommend this site, not only did they beat the price on the same parts, I was given great CUSTOMER SERVICE. I ordered the parts and received an email to make sure I was happy with my order and if I wasn't, I should call them and they would make it right. In this day and age, I'm all about spending my money with those that will care about my business transactions with them. If they don't show me that they care about me. I simply wont spend my money with them again, and I would never recommend them to anyone. I was extremely happy to spend my money with these guys, as I like when a business follows up with me when I buy their product. I had a larger order that came in two packages. One package arrived a day before I expected. I called about the remaining package, thinking they messed up my order. I spoke with a very nice lady that explained that the other package was due to be delivered on time and that if it wasn't there when I expected, I could call back and they would handle it. I love it when a business that I spend my money want to make sure I'm satisfied with their service. That very Idea of customer service makes me a customer for life.



by:

At a sale price cheaper than a no name locally sourced magnet, the savings was a no brainer. The shipping was fast and communication from etrailer is top notch. The product itself is good quality, pig tail plenty long to splice wherever is convenient, the spring is actually larger in diameter and stiffer than OEM which I count as a plus. It pays to do business with etrailer, you WILL be satisfied with your experience.



by:

Excellent
the grease was used on the
trailer, it looks good but only miles will tell.
I am very happy with the service and phone call from the company. The call was to clarify my order. This is five orders over a few years.



by:

Product arrived as scheduled great packaging, I installed both new brake magnets and now trailer brakes are both working as they should which should help spare my truck brakes with the extra help.



by:

I found etrailer's website easy to navigate and customer service was excellent for an online company. The parts that I purchased fit perfectly. I used youtube to watch the installation video that etrailer put up. Will use them again. All the parts fit as they should and the job went smoothly.



by:

Easy to install. Perfect fit. The only recommendation I would make to etrailer.com would be to include the grommet where the wires exit the brake housing. The old grommets were damaged and not serviceable.



by:

Parts were received early...quicker than expected. Customer service is great, very helpful and friendly. Got the right part, waiting for decent weather to install new parts. Etrailers is the only place I buy my parts, also refer my friends and relatives. Great place to buy from, Thanks again.



by:

Every item I ordered worked and fit exactly as I had hoped it would. Prices and shipping was top notch and will definitely buy from e-trailer again.



by:

Item received quickly and easily installed. Only problem was that a part that should be included, the strain relief bushing, is not . This small item is specifically mentioned in the installation instructions as a must replace component and proved impossible to procure locally.



by:

Magnets are installed and brakes are now working fine. The Q&A on your website was particularly useful in this instance because there was some question as to which part number would be the right one for my application. Etrailer offers more than just parts! Thanks, Etrailer!



by:

solved an issue we had with our horse trailer when pulled with our F350 on a trailer connection warning.

  • Determining Size of Brake Assemblies on 1984 Hartman Trailer with Electric Brakes
    You can confirm the size of your trailer's hub/drum by taking a measurement of the drum depth and diameter. Please refer to the linked photo showing a hub drum and the diameter (in red) and the depth (in blue). The hub/drums we sell are available in 7-inch, 10-inch, 12-inch and 12-1/4-inch diameters, and depths from 1-1/4-inches all the way up to 5-inches. A 3500-lb axle will typically have 10 x 2-1/4-inch hub/drums.

  • Recommended Brake Magnets For 10 x 1-1/4 Inch Manual Adjust Hub/Drums
    The brake magnets that will work for the Dexter 10 inch x 1-1/2 inch Electric Brake Shoe/Lining, part # bp04-065 is part # BP01-110. This brake magnet will work for both 10 x 1-1/2 and 10 x 2-1/4 inch brake assemblies. I verified this with my contact at Dexter.

  • Why Would Trailer Brakes of 2010 Jayco Jayflight 29RLS Pull Harder Approaching Stoplight
    First thing I'd need to know is what kind of brake controller do you have? If it's time delayed the braking power is going to ramp up stronger and stronger till it reaches a pre-set amount. Typically when coming to a stoplight towing a trailer and using a time delayed controller the trailer will feel like it's pulling on the truck as you get to the stop. What you described reminds me of this. A proportional controller like the P2 part # 90885 instead senses how much your tow vehicle is...

  • How to Know When Trailer Brake Magnets are Worn Out and Need Replacing
    Are there any visible signs of wear on the magnets like exposed windings then that would indicate they need replacing. Magnets can go bad without showing visible signs of wear though. To see how to troubleshoot them check out the help article I attached. For replacement magnets for the Dexter 10 by 2-1/4 inch assemblies you would want the part # BP01-110. As bad as your assemblies sound you might just want to replace both assemblies. For the left hand side you would want the part # AKEBRK-35L-SA...

  • Why Would Trailer Feel "Heavy" All of A Sudden When Towing
    Sounds like the brakes are dragging based on what you described. This can be caused by a few things but a lot of that depends on the brake setup. Does your brake controller show any odd messages or possibly that there is brake voltage sent to the axles at all times? How's the condition of the breakaway system? Have you tried jacking the trailer up and then seeing if you can turn the wheels by hand? You might be best off if none of that looks out of place by pulling the drums off the brakes...

  • Trailer Brakes are Not Working Properly With Both Wires Run to Battery for Power
    Trailer brakes like part # 23-26 in your picture have 2 wires coming out from them. To properly install them you need to connect one wire to your trailer brake controller circuit (unless you are testing them like what you are doing) and then the other wire needs to have a clean solid ground. It doesn't matter which is which, but since you don't have one grounded that is your problem. As far as your trailer brakes go if you can let me know what the problem was that you were having I can...

  • Which Spring Will Need to be Used with the Dexter/ Hayes/AL-KO Replacement Magnet
    You will use only one spring in the Dexter Replacement Trailer Brake Magnet Kit for Dexter and Hayes / AL-KO 10" Trailer Brakes, # BP01-110. Which spring will depend on which brake system you have. If you have the Dexter brakes you will use the spring that is applicable. If you have Hayes/AL-CO brakes you will use the spring that is applicable for that brake assembly.

  • Replacement Brake Drums and Brake Assembly Parts for Lance 1685 Travel Trailer
    Given the wheel bolt pattern and the 8-247 that's cast into your existing brake drums, you have a 3500 lb axle. Assuming you have E-Z Lube spindles with the grease zerks in the end, you'd want to use the # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K hub/drums you looked at. If you have standard spindles, use # 84546UC3. At the very least, you'd want to replace your brake magnets, if they've got grooves worn into them as they won't get a good contact with the new drums for effective braking. If your brake assemblies...

  • Replacement Magnet for Hayes/AL-KO Drum Brake on 1984 Hartman Trailer with 3500-lb Axles
    Typically a 3500-lb-rated axle will have 10 x 2-1/4-inch drum brakes like the AL-KO # 60202803. The magnet you referenced, Replacement Trailer Brake Magnet Kit # BP01-110, will work fine on either Dexter or AL-KO 3500-lb 10 x 2-1/4 electric drum brake assemblies. Brake magnet wiring is non-polarized so either magnet wire can used for hot or ground.

  • Will Going with a Higher Rated Brake Magnet Give More Braking Power
    Going to a "more powerful" magnet will not give you additional stopping power. All it will do is make your trailer brakes harder to fine tune as they will want to lock up easier. Your best option would be to stick with the proper rated magnets for your setup. If your brakes are weak and won't lock up that could mean that your magnets are worn and need replaced or your assemblies are out of adjustment. The easiest possibility is that your brake controller just needs to be adjusted for more...

  • Replacement Parts for AL-KO 10 x 2-1/4 Inch Electric Trailer Brakes
    It can be a challenge some times to determine the correct replacement parts for a given trailer or brake assembly. I did some checking and brake magnet # BP01-110 is correct for Hayes/AL-KO 10 x 2-1/4 inch brakes. To be honest I am not certain what the wire color indicates since magnets now pretty much all use the same wire color for both wires. I was under the impression that it helped identify the year range brake assembly that magnet goes with. However the replacement actuator arms...

  • Right Hand Side Electric Trailer Brake Locks Up with Slightest Pressure on Brake Pedal
    It sounds like an internal problem with the brake magnet. The first thing to do is visually inspect the magnets. If you can see the copper windings coming through then the magnets will need to be replaced. To further test the magnets you will need a meter, such as # PT89ZR if you need one, and a 12 volt battery such as a car battery. Then you can follow the help article I have linked for you that shows the amperage and resistance levels you should be seeing for different magnet sizes. If...

  • Replacement Magnet For Dexter 3,500 lb Electric Brakes
    Having a significantly heavier side of the trailer could cause some additional wear, yes, as it would be working a bit harder, but unless it was quite a lot then it shouldn't be a big issue. As for grooves, there should not be any type of grooves it should be smooth. As for the replacement magnet for your 3,500 lb Dexter electric brakes the correct part is the Replacement Trailer Brake Magnet Kit # BP01-110.

  • Do Dexter Nev-R-Lube Hub and Drums Use the Same Brake Components as Other Dexter Hub and Drums
    The Dexter Nev-R-Lube Hub and Drums will use the same braking components as other Dexter Hub and Drums. You would just need to determine the size of the drum in order to determine which parts to use. The magnet you were looking at, part # BP01-180, is for 12 inch drums. The magnet you would use for 10 inch drums is part # BP01-110. Same principle applies for shoes and entire brake assemblies.

  • What Brake Assemblies do Trailer Magnet # BP01-110 Fit
    I attached a help article that covers how to test the brake magnets of a trailer for you to check out. Since you have 10 inch brake assemblies there is a great chance the part # BP01-110 would be the correct replacement magnets you'd need. This magnet kit fits the very popular brands of Dexter and Hayes/Al Ko brake assemblies so you'd need to verify that's what you have.

  • Replacement Magnet Needed for 10" Brakes on a 1986 Holiday Rambler Alumalite Trailer
    We have 2 different options for a replacement magnet for 10" brakes. I recommend getting the one that has the closest dimensions to what you currently have but either one should be just fine: Replacement Magnet Kit - # AKBRKR-M10 (2" long x 3-1/8" wide x 1" tall) Replacement Magnet Kit # BP01-110 (3-1/2" long x 2-1/8" wide x 7/8" tall)

For the cost, I recommend replacing them with the Electric Trailer Brake Kit - 10" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies - 3,500 lbs # AKEBRK-35 instead of just getting the brake magnet and shoe replacements as all the components get upgraded for similar cost.

  • Trailer Brakes Lock Up when Connected to Tow Vehicle that Does Not have a Brake Controller
    Does your trailer use a 6-Way connector by any chance? And are you also using a 7- to 6-Way adapter? If so then the issue is that the trailer has the brake output on one pin and the corresponding pin on the adapter is the 12 volt circuit. The fix is easy. In either the adapter or the trailer side connector you would just switch the positions of the 12 volt circuit and the brake output circuit. Take a look at the picture I have included that shows how a 6-Way is pinned. If both the trailer...

  • Solution for 1978 Prowler Travel Trailer with Bad Trailer Magnets
    I wish we had an easy solution, but we don't have magnets that will fit your application and we don't have a way to replace just the brake assemblies either as since what you have is welded directly to the trailer axle. So it will end up being easiest if you look into replacing the axle you have since none of the components of it are replaceable. All is not lost as I can help if you are interested in upgrading your axles. When you upgrade your axles you can update your brakes and hubs...

  • Troubleshooting Poor Trailer Braking with AL-KO Electric Brake Assemblies
    You are correct, the recommended brake magnet for AL-KO electric brake assemblies is the Trailer Brake Magnet, # BP01-110. It is about one tenth of an inch thicker than the brake magnet, # BP01-115. The brake magnet, # BP01-115, will fit in the AL-KO brake assemblies because the mounting locations and dimensions are similar, but it was designed for Dexter 10 inch x 2-1/4 inch brake assemblies only. This is most likely what is causing your problem since you have already tried adjusting...
