Black-painted hydraulic drum brake assemblies let you reverse without actuating. Designed for use with hydraulic brake actuators that do not include reverse lockouts. Fit most 14", 14" and 15" wheels.


Features:

  • Hydraulic drum brake assemblies are designed for use with a surge-type trailer brake actuator
  • Free-backing design lets you reverse without trailer brakes being activated
    • Hydraulic pressure is contained by wheel cylinder
    • Brake shoe turns and releases pressure when reversing
  • Sleek black paint finish
  • Adjuster plugs (included) cover access holes to keep dirt and grime out of the assemblies and off of the shoes
  • Left-hand (driver's-side) brake assembly and right-hand (passenger's-side) brake assembly included
    • Mounting bolts and hardware sold separately


Specs:

  • Dimensions: 10" diameter x 2-1/4" wide
  • Pad lining: 44 sq in
  • Wheel size: 14" or 15"
  • Mounting flange bolt pattern: 4 bolt
  • Center hole diameter: 3"
  • Axle rating: up to 3,750 lbs
  • 1-Year warranty


The unique free-backing design, patented by DICO, lets your trailer move in reverse without actuating the brakes. When you begin backing up, the brake shoes are firm against the drum, as in a braking situation. As you continue in reverse, however, the shoes turn with the drum until the lining pressure is released and you are able to back up freely.


These brakes are designed to eliminate friction between the shoes and drum when you are driving in reverse. A trailer breakaway kit will not be effective should your trailer disconnect from your tow vehicle when backing up.

I was about to repair the old brakes when I discovered that the full assemblies were available at a reasonable cost. These dropped right into my 1999 Bayliner trailer, and in short order I had a full refresh of the system (along with a new surge hitch, reviewed separately).



by:

The trailer brakes worked out great. After an initial “hiccup” I received the correct parts and they went on smoothly and have performed great. Thank you for you assistance it really made the project work as intended.

i changed my tow trailer brakes from electric to hydraulic and they worked perfectly. they are much better than the electric ones and i dont have to worry about a controller. great product



by:

Product works as advertised. The hardest part was bleeding the system prior to use.



by:

Great value.
Nice upgrade for my older
boat trailer to avoid the hassle of locking out the brake actuator for backing.

Flawless first season on the road !



by:

This product perfectly replaced my tongue master cylinder on my 1992 Capri boat trailer. It bolted right up and the brake line thread was the same. It was super easy. It is a huge improvement!



by:

received the backing plates one day ahead of schedule. Installing tomorrow.
Great service and a more than timely delivery. etrailer.com is top notch in customer service.
Looking forward to a smooth installation and hassle free backing up of my boat trailer.



by:

The product fits perfectly on my VM trailer. The only issue was my brand new Craftsman 3/8 Flare wrench would not fit onto the bleeder nut. Fortunately, it is new right now and i can use any wrench to turn it. It will not be easy to bleed the line in the future once the part gets older and the nut will be tough to loosen.



by:

Great customer service thx. And the brakes were easy to install , no problems. Off to the lake for some fun.

Everything ordered is in great shape and fits my trailer. Prices are better than anywhere else I've researched and i will definitely pass along to anyone i know needing trailer parts.

  • Recommended Replacement Drum Brakes for Boat Trailer with 3500-lbs Axles
    I recommend using the Hydraulic Brake Kit - Uni-Servo - Free Backing - Dacromet - 10" - Left/Right Hand - 3,500 lbs # AKFBBRK-35-D, which will work with your current setup and are perfect because the Dacromet plating is designed to withstand exposure to water; so they're ideal for boat trailers. These brakes are free backing, so they'll allow your trailer to backup regardless of whether or not you've got a lockout feature on your actuator, and they'll work with a breakaway kit. If you've...

  • Determining Which Brakes Fit 10" x 2-1/2" Drums On Boat Trailer
    Based on the information you provided either the Titan Hydraulic Brake Kit - Free Backing - 10" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies - 3,750 lbs # T4071600-500 or # T4423500-400 will fit your drums. The only difference between these two brakes is the # T4071600-500 are made of standard metal where the # T4423500-400 have a Galphorite coating giving it superior corrosion resistance. Since you are putting these brakes on a boat trailer I recommend the # T4423500-400 as they will be less likely...

  • Hydraulic Drum Brakes for 3,750 lb Axle For 15 Inch Wheels
    The Titan Hydraulic Brake Kit - Free Backing # T4071600-500 will fit so long as your drum is 10" diameter x 2-1/4" wide, and you have a 4-bolt brake mounting flange. This is a pretty common set up so it will likely fit but you'll want to make sure, and these brakes will also work with either a 14 inch or 15 inch wheel like you have. These brakes are for a 3,750 lb axle and would only require Mounting Hardware # BRKH10A. I have added a link to a video review for you to check out as well...

  • How to Find Correct Replacement Brakes for 3,750 lb Axle
    To determine the correct brake kit you'll need to measure the diameter of the brake pads (from one side of the assembly to the other). If it is 10" and you have hydraulic brakes then I recommend the Titan Free Backing Kit # T4071600-500, but if you have electric then you'll need brakes rated for 3,500 lbs like what we see with the kit # AKEBRK-35-SA. It's not unheard of for the brakes to be rated for a little less weight than the axles themselves so you'll be just fine with the 3,500 lb...

  • What Info Is Needed to See if Trailer Can be Converted to Disc Brakes
    You are on the right track for determining what disc brake components you'd need to convert your trailer to disc brakes. You'd either need to know the bearing numbers or the dimensions of the spindle where the bearings ride. If you check out the attached help articles you can see a guide we put together for adding disc brakes to a trailer like yours. There isn't a way to determine this based on the dimensions of your axle setup.

  • How to Choose the Right Brake Assemblies for my Trailer
    They are generally pretty universal. You want to check to see how many bolts there are on the brake flange, get overall diameter and the overall thickness of the shoes. For instance the very popular Electric Trailer Brake Kit part # AKEBRK-35-SA is a left and right assembly that is 10" in diameter and has shoes 2-1/4" wide. These assemblies use the four bolt brake flange. I've included the installation video of them we made if you want to check it out. If you have a different size brake...

  • Parts Needed To Add Brakes To A Second Axle
    Typically, as long as the brakes are on the front axle, you will be good to go. More of the weight will end up on the front half of a trailer, so this is why only one axle has brakes. However, it is never a bad thing to have brakes on both axles and it will only offer you more braking power. To choose the correct brakes and drums, you really do just need to confirm a few things. First will be the bearings. You will need to see if there are numbers on both the inner and outer bearings....

  • Hub/Drum that Fits Titan Hydraulic Brake Kit part # T4071600-500
    Yes, we do sell hub/drums that are compatible with the Titan Hydraulic Brake Kit part # T4071600-500 that you referenced. The most common fit that would match the application of the brake kit mentioned would be the etrailer hub/drums part # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K which fits 3,500 lb axles like what you have and has the correct 10 inch drum needed. This hub also has the most popular wheel bolt pattern for this axle of 5 on 4-1/2 inch. You can verify the fit of these hubs by pulling the hubs...

  • Replacement Brake Kit, Surge Actuator, and Bearing Kit for a 1988 EZ Loader Boat Trailer
    Hey Scott! Both the 3,500 lb and 3,750 lb brake assemblies work with a 10" x 2-1/4" drum so either one will fit with your hubs, but you can verify your axle capacity either on the sticker tag on the side of your EZ Loader Trailer, or by looking at the tag in the middle of your axle(s). One you know what weight capacity you have then I recommend getting Free-Backing brakes so you'll be able to back the trailer up. For 3,500 lb brake assemblies this will be part # AKFBBRK-35 and for 3,750...

  • How to Measure to Determine the Size Trailer Brakes Needed For Hydraulic Drum Replacement
    To determine the size of the brake assemblies you need you have to measure the depth and width of the hub drum on the axle like what you see in the picture I attached. The most common size is 2-1/4 inch wide like the # T4071600-500 that you referenced.

  • What Size Brakes Are Used on 5200-lbs Dexter Axles
    Typically a 5200-lbs axle will have 12" drums and brakes, so you're going to want to use something like the # AKEBRK-7-SA, which are a 12" electric brake assembly that are self adjusting so you won't have to worry about your brakes being out of adjustment again. You can measure the inside of the drums to confirm this, but 12" brakes are fairly standard on a 5200-lbs axle.

  • Determining Correct Replacement Brake Assemblies For 2011 Forest River Prime Time Tracer 230 FBS
    Based on the weight of your 2011 Forest River Prime Time Tracer 230 FBS your trailer should have tandem 3500lb axles, which would mean your axles use replacement braking assemblies # 23-468-469. You will need two sets of these, one for each axle. You can confirm that this is the correct braking assemblies by measuring the inside of your drums or by checking the axle tag on the center of your axle to see if the axle rating is indeed 3500lbs. These brakes measure 10" x 2-1/4" so measuring...

The Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Kit - 12-1/4" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies - 7,200 lbs # 23-428-429 is the only fit we have for the larger hubs and it has a 4 bolt versus 5 bolt brake flange connection, but we have both electric or hydraulic options for the 12x2 inch hubs. I've linked the page to all those options.

    The four bolt mounting pattern of the two brake assembly sets part # T4071600-500 and # T187800-700 is the standard 4 on 2-7/8 inches square pattern that basically all current trailers with a 4 bolt flange use.

  • Is It Possible to Determine What Brake Assemblies a Trailer Would Need Without Taking Them Apart
    With the diameter of the drums and the amount of mounting bolts I can safely determine what assemblies you'd need. For example, the # T4071600-500 is the correct kit for you if your 4 bolt assemblies also are 10 inches in diameter.

  • Parts Needed to Add Electric Brakes to Trailer
    Thanks for the photo and it looks like you have an idler hub so before adding electric brakes you need to switch to a hub and drum assembly. To do this you need to know the weight rating of your axle, and also what bearings your current hub has. You will need to take apart your current hub assembly and look at the bearings themselves; wipe away the grease and you should be able to see the part number stamped directly on them. If you are unable to find them, you need to use a digital caliper...
