DESIGN FEATURES<br />
ACTUATOR MOVEMENT<br />
The straight line movement of the actuator is accomplished by using rollers to reduce resistance<br />
so that the kinetic energy of a loaded trailer can be translated into braking effort.<br />
This design consists of a tubing assembly to meet applicable specifications for tongue load plus<br />
needed strength for side load. The side load strength is particularly to resist bending in jackknife<br />
situations.<br />
TITAN FREE BACKING BRAKES<br />
ALLOWS YOU TO BACK UP WITH OUR BRAKING SYSTEM<br />
HERE IS THE WAY IT WORKS:<br />
As wheel revolves forward, outward movement<br />
of shoe lever engages brake shoe with drum<br />
providing full braking action.<br />
As wheel moves in reverse, shoes turn with<br />
drum until lining pressure is released. Hydraulic<br />
pressure is contained by the cylinder.<br />
