Trailer Brake Actuators / Electric-Over-Hydraulic

Hydrastar HBA-10 Electric-Over-Hydraulic Actuator | 1,000 PSI for Drum Brakes

Upgrade to instant, proportional braking that eliminates surge lag and provides total control when backing up or navigating steep grades.

Part Number: HBA-10 1,000 PSI Drum Brake Compatible

Overview

The Hydrastar 1,000 PSI actuator is the ultimate performance upgrade for trailers with hydraulic drum brakes. This Electric-Over-Hydraulic (EOH) system triggers the moment you touch your vehicle's brake pedal, delivering smooth, jerk-free stopping power that matches your vehicle's braking intensity without the "push" feeling common in surge systems.

R&P Service Insight

This system is a game-changer for marine trailers where corrosion and steep ramps are constant factors.

  • No Lockouts: Back up freely without manual coupler pins.
  • Vented Housing: Releases heat and moisture to protect electronics.
  • Maintenance: Flush brake fluid annually and check 7-way plugs for corrosion.

R&P Knowledge Hub

Compatibility: Designed specifically for hydraulic drum brakes. Not for use with disc brake systems.

Vehicle / System Fit: Suitable for single or tandem axle trailers with a total rating up to 7,000 lbs.

Installation Notes: Requires an in-cab electric brake controller and a 5-amp-hour breakaway battery kit (sold separately).

Performance Insight: The extruded anodized aluminum housing provides superior salt-water resistance for marine applications.

R&P Repair Insight

Use the following checklist to ensure a successful conversion from surge couplers to EOH:

  • Pressure Check: Confirm your trailer has Drum Brakes (requires 1,000 PSI).
  • Wiring Prep: Ensure your tow vehicle has a 7-way plug with a dedicated 12V power lead.
  • Mounting Space: Unit dimensions are 11-3/4" L x 3" W x 7-3/8" H; verify frame clearance.
