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 />
