The master cylinder is the core hydraulic component inside a surge brake actuator: when the tow vehicle brakes and the actuator compresses, this cylinder converts that mechanical force into hydraulic pressure, sending fluid through the brake lines to apply the trailer's drum brakes. Because it is sized specifically to the Model 60 and Aero 7500 actuator bodies, it is intended as a direct replacement inside those units rather than a universal part.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOrdering the correct bore size matters for proper brake feel and stopping power, and this unit is specified at a 1.25 inch bore to match its intended actuators. It ships as the master cylinder only, for installation into an existing Model 60 or Aero 7500 actuator housing during a rebuild or repair.\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 068-085-00\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Master Cylinder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBore Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Actuators:\u003c\/strong\u003e Model 60 Actuator, Aero 7500 Actuator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrake Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Drum brake\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.4 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel 60 Actuator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAero 7500 Actuator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat actuators does the Dexter 068-085-00 master cylinder fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Dexter 068-085-00 master cylinder is built for use with the Model 60 actuator and the Aero 7500 actuator.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the bore size of this master cylinder?\u003c\/strong\u003e This Dexter master cylinder has a 1.25 inch bore.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this include the full actuator assembly?\u003c\/strong\u003e No, part number 068-085-00 is the master cylinder only, intended for installation inside an existing Model 60 or Aero 7500 actuator housing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat type of brakes does this master cylinder work with?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is a drum brake master cylinder, designed to generate hydraulic pressure for a trailer's drum brake system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the Dexter 068-085-00 master cylinder weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e It weighs 3.4 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill this master cylinder work with any surge actuator?\u003c\/strong\u003e No, the 068-085-00 is sized specifically for the Model 60 and Aero 7500 actuators, so it should be matched to one of those units rather than used as a universal fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy would I need to replace the master cylinder in my actuator?\u003c\/strong\u003e A worn or leaking master cylinder inside a Model 60 or Aero 7500 actuator can cause soft brakes or fluid loss, and replacing it with the Dexter 068-085-00 restores proper hydraulic function.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this a genuine Dexter part?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, part number 068-085-00 is a Dexter-branded master cylinder assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the bore size affect braking performance?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, bore size determines the hydraulic pressure and fluid volume the master cylinder produces, which is why the 1.25 inch bore of the 068-085-00 should match the actuator it is installed in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I install this myself or does it require a mechanic?\u003c\/strong\u003e Installing the Dexter 068-085-00 master cylinder involves opening the actuator housing and connecting hydraulic lines, a job that is commonly done by anyone comfortable rebuilding a trailer brake actuator, though a professional can also perform it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dexter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48991257854171,"sku":"DEX-068-085-00","price":118.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/2336100042_1__74526.1558140719.500.750.jpg?v=1785189169","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/master-cylinder-for-model-60-aero-7500-actuators-1-25-in-bore-drum-brake-dexter-068-085-00","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
