This is the left-hand (LH) side assembly, engineered as a direct, ready-to-install unit rather than a collection of loose parts, making it a straightforward replacement when a trailer's electric brake needs to be swapped out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs a self-adjusting design, the K23-450-00 automatically compensates for shoe wear during forward travel, helping maintain consistent stopping performance and reducing the need for manual adjustment compared to non-self-adjusting brake assemblies. Because it is electric, it is intended for trailers running an electric brake system rather than a hydraulic (surge) setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis part is side-specific: the K23-450-00 is the LH (left-hand) assembly only. Trailers with brakes on both axle ends require the matching right-hand assembly, Dexter part K23-451-00, sold separately. Always confirm which side you are ordering for before installing, since the LH and RH assemblies are not interchangeable.\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 K23-450-00\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Category:\u003c\/strong\u003e Trailer Drum Brakes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrake Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12-1\/4 inches x 3-3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSide:\u003c\/strong\u003e Left Hand (LH)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrake Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Electric\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdjustment Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Forward Self-Adjusting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDuty Rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9,000-10,000 lb General Duty (9K-10K GD)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20.15 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 876983002016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Accessory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Funnel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFits trailer axles rated for 9,000-10,000 lb general duty (GD) service using a 12-1\/4 inch x 3-3\/8 inch electric brake.
