Electric Trailer Brake Assembly 12" x 2" for 5200 6000 7000 lb Axle Trailers - 2 Left & 2 Right

Electric brakes are easier to install and offer more user control than hydraulic brakes. These only require an electric brake controller (sold separately)- no actuator or hydraulic lines necessary. Automotive-grade friction material is molded to brake shoes. The pads are fully bonded - not riveted - to shoes for long life and more braking torque. There is less of a chance cracking and crumbling that can lead to mechanical lockup, thanks to tapered edge and circular grinding. The fine-tooth brake adjustment gear allows for a more precise setting. The E-coated backing plate resists wear and corrosion. Periodic manual adjustment is required. Adjuster plugs cover access holes to keep dirt and grime out of the assembly and off of the shoes.
