Dexter 10 Inch E-Coated Drum Brake Kit, K71-G01-06

The Dexter K71-G01-06 is a 10 inch E-Coated drum brake kit built for trailer applications that demand reliable, corrosion-resistant stopping power. This kit includes both the left and right brake assemblies, so a single kit outfits both sides of the axle. Each side features an aluminum wheel cylinder and a stainless steel spring, paired with brake pads that are bonded and riveted to the backing plate with bronze rivets for a secure, long-lasting friction surface.

Beyond the core brake assemblies, the kit also supplies the small parts needed for a complete drum brake replacement: springs, an adjuster tool, brass hardware, and hardware for the backing plate. The E-Coated finish is applied to help the components resist the corrosive effects of a wet, marine trailer environment. Whether you are replacing worn-out drum brakes or rebuilding a trailer axle from the ground up, the Dexter K71-G01-06 kit provides the matched left and right components and hardware needed to get the job done in one purchase.
