Electric Brake Assembly Set — 12-1/4" x 3-3/8", Self-Adjusting, 7-Bolt, 10K General Duty
Complete four-piece electric brake backing plate assembly set with two left-hand and two right-hand self-adjusting units for compatible 9,000–10,000 lb General Duty trailer axle applications.
Overview
This R&P Carriages curated electric brake assembly set is built for service replacement on compatible 9,000–10,000 lb General Duty trailer axles using 12-1/4" x 3-3/8" electric brakes and a 7-bolt brake mounting flange. The set includes two left-hand and two right-hand self-adjusting backing plate assemblies, making it a practical full-axle-service solution for trailers needing brake assembly replacement on both sides of a tandem-style setup.
R&P Service Insight
Brake assembly replacement is often cleaner and more efficient than rebuilding worn plates piece by piece, especially when shoes, magnets, springs, and adjuster hardware have already seen heavy trailer service.
- Full Set Service: Includes two left-hand and two right-hand assemblies for consistent brake service across four wheel ends.
- Fitment First: Match the brake size, 7-bolt mounting flange, and left/right orientation before installation.
- 10K Caution: Some 10K axles use 12-1/4" x 4" brake assemblies instead, so measurements must be verified before ordering.
R&P Knowledge Hub
Compatibility: Commonly used on 9,000–10,000 lb General Duty trailer axle applications with 12-1/4" x 3-3/8" electric brakes and a 7-bolt brake mounting flange.
Vehicle / System Fit: Trailer electric brake systems using left-hand and right-hand 12-1/4" x 3-3/8" self-adjusting backing plate assemblies.

R&P Repair Insight
Trailer brake fitment can look close from the outside, but the wrong shoe width or mounting pattern can stop the job immediately. Always confirm the assembly against the axle and drum before starting the install.
- Brake Size Check: Confirm your existing brakes are 12-1/4" diameter by 3-3/8" shoe width.
- Mounting Check: These assemblies are for 7-bolt brake flange applications and will not fit older 4-bolt brake mounts.
- Wiring Check: Brake magnets include two lead wires; polarity is not critical, but wiring condition and connections should be inspected during installation.
