Product Description
Self-adjusting electric brakes measure 12-1/4" x 3-3/8". Brake pads are made of durable friction material for improved braking. E-coated backing plates resist rust. Dust shields protect from debris. Fit 15" or larger wheels.Features:
Electric brakes are easier to install and offer more user control than hydraulic brakes
Require only an electric brake controller - no actuator or hydraulic lines necessary
Automotive-grade friction material is molded to brake shoes
Pads are fully bonded - not riveted - to shoes for long life and more braking torque
Less chance of cracking and crumbling that can lead to mechanical lockup, thanks to tapered edge and circular grinding
Self-adjusting brakes do not require periodic manual adjustment like standard brakes
Fine-tooth brake adjustment gears allow for a more precise setting
Dust shields protect from debris while you're towing
E-coated backing plates resist wear and corrosion
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
QAI and CSA certified

Self-Adjusting Brakes Don't Require Routine Adjustment
Standard electric brake assemblies require manual adjustment of the brake shoes over time to provide longer-lasting and more efficient braking performance. With self-adjusting brakes, the brake shoes are always properly aligned, so there's no need to manually adjust the brakes after the initial adjustment. As a result, you get optimum performance without having to take the time to continually perform this type of maintenance.
Thoroughly Tested for Safety
These brake assemblies meet the requirements for certification by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). The CSA creates standards, which when complied with ensure a safe and quality product. These brake assemblies underwent extensive testing to measure stopping distances when braking. These brakes have also been tested by QAI for braking performance in a complete automotive setup and under real-world conditions to provide the most realistic scenario for the everyday driver.
Automotive-Grade Friction Material
Each shoe on these brake assemblies is lined with automotive-grade friction material for improved stopping performance and longevity. The friction material is fully bonded onto the surface of the brake shoe. This lining is custom-molded for a perfect fit. The edges are tapered to ensure long-lasting performance. This taper, along with the circular grinding that the lining undergoes, helps to prevent cracking and crumbling. This durability helps to prevent mechanical lockup, which can occur when brake shoes are excessively worn or broken.
The friction material is also SAE-N certified, which means that it is an environmentally safe product that complies with California and Washington regulations regarding the composition of brake pads. As a result, this material not only provides high-performance braking that can endure the test of time, but it is also environmentally friendly and safe for use throughout the United States and Canada.
