{"product_id":"dexter-023-566-00-12-x-2-hydraulic-trailer-brake-assembly-6k-left-hand-manual-adjust-complete","title":"Dexter 023-566-00 12 x 2 Inch 6K Hydraulic Left Hand Trailer Drum Brake Assembly","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Dexter 023-566-00 is a complete 12 x 2 inch hydraulic trailer drum brake assembly rated for 6,000 lb (6K) axle applications. This is the left hand (LH) side unit only, built for trailers using US-manufactured, manually adjusted drum brake hardware. As a complete assembly, it is designed to be installed as a full replacement unit rather than requiring separate purchase of individual internal components. The 12 inch drum diameter and 2 inch shoe width match the common 12 x 2 hydraulic brake platform used on 6,000 lb rated trailer axles, and the manual adjustment design allows the brake shoe clearance to be set and maintained through routine service. Because this unit is manufactured specifically for the left hand side of the trailer, it is not interchangeable with a right hand assembly; installing the correct side is required for proper brake function and even braking side to side. Trailer owners replacing worn-out or damaged hydraulic drum brakes on a 6K axle, or upgrading a trailer to a complete matched hydraulic brake set, can use this assembly as the left side component of that setup. Always confirm axle capacity, drum diameter, and side (left vs. Right) before ordering to ensure correct fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dexter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 023-566-00\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Complete Hydraulic Trailer Brake Assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrum Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShoe Width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLoad Capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6,000 pounds (6K)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActuation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hydraulic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSide:\u003c\/strong\u003e Left Hand (LH)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdjustment Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Manual adjust\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturing Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e US-manufactured\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 106151235110\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Trailer Drum Brakes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Dexter 023-566-00 for the left or right side of the trailer?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Dexter 023-566-00 is a left hand (LH) side brake assembly only.
