Dexter Model 60 Master Cylinder Repair Kit for Drum Brake Surge Actuators - 071-A98-00

The Dexter Model 60 M/C Repair Kit (071-A98-00) is a master cylinder repair kit built to service drum brake surge actuators on boat and utility trailers. It is designed for use with Titan and Dico Model 60 Actuators and Aero 7500 Actuators, restoring hydraulic brake function without requiring replacement of the entire actuator housing. The kit includes the master cylinder, filler cap, orifice fitting, and mounting hardware needed to rebuild the actuator's hydraulic circuit; all other actuator parts are sold separately.

Construction is zinc-plated steel, chosen for corrosion resistance in the wet, salt-exposed environment typical of trailer brake actuators. This makes the kit a practical choice for trailer owners maintaining surge brake systems that have developed weak, spongy, or non-functional braking due to a worn or leaking master cylinder. The kit weighs 2 pounds as packaged.
