Enhance Your Towing Safety and Efficiency
The Load Rite 8,500lb Disc Brake Actuator - Tie Down Engineering Model offers unparalleled braking efficiency and safety for heavy-duty towing. Engineered to synchronize seamlessly with your tow vehicle’s brakes, this actuator provides a smooth and controlled towing experience, ensuring your trailer stops as effectively as your vehicle.
The Model 850E operates using a surge mechanism, where the trailer's forward motion against the tow vehicle activates the actuator. This motion compresses the actuator, applying force to the master cylinder and generating hydraulic pressure to engage the trailer brakes. The built-in dampening shock absorber mitigates the impact against the hitch ball, ensuring a smooth and controlled towing process. The Model 850E is designed to fit tongue sizes of 3"x 3”, 3"x 4", and 3"x 5”, making it versatile for various trailer setups.
