It is designed to shield the brake caliper and hub area from road spray, salt water, mud, and general debris, helping to slow corrosion on exposed brake hardware -- a common failure point on boat trailers that are regularly launched and retrieved in wet or salt-water environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe kit is constructed from stainless steel for corrosion resistance and includes a fitted bra-style cover that wraps the protected components. It ships as a single kit (package quantity of 1) sized for direct fit on Dexter 7000 lb, 2.717 inch outer bore brake hardware carrying the 865 designation. Because it is stainless steel rather than painted or plated carbon steel, it resists rust and pitting better over repeated exposure to salt water compared to unprotected hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis protector kit is intended for boat trailer owners who want to extend the service life of their brake components between inspections, particularly on trailers used for saltwater launching.\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 K71-031-00\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Category:\u003c\/strong\u003e Boat Trailer Brakes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKit Designation:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7K 865\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOuter Bore:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.717 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Dimensions (L x W x H):\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.37 x 2.75 x 2.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.18 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 876983008209\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the Dexter K71-031-00 protector kit used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e The K71-031-00 is a stainless steel protector and bra kit that covers a boat trailer brake assembly to shield it from water, salt spray, and road debris, helping reduce corrosion on the brake hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat outer bore size does this kit fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e This kit is sized for a 2.717 inch outer bore brake assembly, matching Dexter's 7000 lb, 865-designated brake hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the K71-031-00 kit made of stainless steel?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the Dexter K71-031-00 protector and bra kit is constructed from stainless steel, which resists rust and pitting better than unprotected or painted brake hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the K71-031-00 kit weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The kit weighs 0.18 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the dimensions of the K71-031-00 kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Dexter K71-031-00 protector kit measures 5.37 x 2.75 x 2.75 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many pieces come in the K71-031-00 kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The K71-031-00 ships with a package quantity of one complete protector and bra kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill this kit fit any boat trailer brake?\u003c\/strong\u003e The K71-031-00 is designed for Dexter's 7000 lb, 2.717 inch outer bore brake assemblies (the 865 designation) rather than being a universal fit for all trailer brakes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy would I install a protector and bra kit on my trailer brakes?\u003c\/strong\u003e Boat trailer brakes are frequently exposed to salt water and moisture during launch and retrieval, and the Dexter K71-031-00 stainless steel kit helps shield the brake components from that exposure to slow corrosion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the K71-031-00 an OEM Dexter part?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, K71-031-00 is the manufacturer part number assigned by Dexter for this stainless steel protector and bra kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the UPC for the Dexter K71-031-00 kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The UPC for the Dexter K71-031-00 protector and bra kit is 876983008209.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dexter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48991262277851,"sku":"DEX-K71-031-00","price":124.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/Dexter-7000lbs-8-Lug-6-and-a-half-inch-Trailer-Buddy-Protector-with-Bra-K71-031-00__31694.1747363800.500.750.jpg?v=1785188068","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/dexter-ufp-k71-031-00-stainless-steel-bearing-protector-bra-kit-7000-series-2-717-outer-bore","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
