Trailer Brake Assemblies
12" x 2" Electric Trailer Brake Assembly Pair – 5 Bolt – 5.2K–7K Axles
A clean, complete brake refresh for one axle. This pair includes one left-hand and one right-hand 12" x 2" electric backing plate assembly so you can service both sides together with less guesswork and more confidence.
Part Number: 12RVEB-1P 12" x 2" Electric Drum Brake Size Pair • Left + Right • 5-Bolt
Overview
This 12RVEB-1P pair is built for trailers using 12" x 2" electric drum brakes on a standard 5-bolt brake flange. You get one left-hand and one right-hand complete backing plate assembly for one axle, making this a smart choice for brake service when worn shoes, tired magnets, and old internal hardware are all due at the same time.
Buyers usually land here for one reason: they want to stop chasing individual brake internals. A complete assembly approach helps simplify service, reduce parts mixing, and get both sides of the axle refreshed together.

Need the 2-Pair Set Instead?
If you are servicing both axles on a tandem-axle trailer, the larger 4-plate version may be the better buy. It gives you two left-hand and two right-hand assemblies in one matched package so you can refresh the full trailer brake setup at the same time.

The related 2 Pair listing is the right move when one pair is not enough and you want the complete two-axle version of this same brake family.
R&P Service Insight
Brake wear usually does not happen in isolation. By the time shoes are worn down, the magnet and internal spring hardware are often at or near the same service point. That is why complete backing plate assemblies remain one of the most practical ways to refresh trailer braking on a working axle.
- One-Axle Service: This pair gives you the left and right side needed to service one axle correctly.
- Cleaner Repair Path: Replacing complete assemblies can be more straightforward than piecing together mixed old and new internals.
- Balanced Brake Work: Servicing both sides together helps support more even response across the axle.
R&P Knowledge Hub
Compatibility: Typically used on trailers with 5,200 lb, 6,000 lb, and 7,000 lb axles equipped with 12" x 2" electric drum brakes and a standard 5-bolt mounting flange.
Wheel / System Fit: This brake size is commonly associated with 14-1/2", 15", 16", and 16-1/2" wheel applications using standard hub-and-drum electric brake setups.
Installation Notes: Before ordering, verify brake dimensions, axle rating, flange pattern, wheel size, and trailer wiring condition. A correct 12" x 2" callout matters more than appearance alone.
Performance Insight: Electric brakes work by energizing the magnet through the brake controller, which engages the drum and activates the shoes through the internal lever system. Replacing the backing plate assembly restores the core wear items together.
R&P Repair Insight
Customers most often get tripped up on three things: ordering the wrong brake size, overlooking flange count, or forgetting that a proper one-axle set needs both a left-hand and a right-hand assembly. Confirm those three points first and the rest of the purchase becomes much easier.
- Check 1: Confirm the trailer uses 12" x 2" electric drum brakes.
- Check 2: Verify the axle has a standard 5-bolt brake flange.
- Check 3: Make sure you need one left-hand and one right-hand assembly for a single axle service.
