Part Number: 183537 12-1/4" x 3-3/8" Brake Size 10,000 lb Axle Application
Overview
This Lippert trailer brake drum is a replacement drum-only component for 10,000 lb trailer axle applications. It is built for 12-1/4" x 3-3/8" brake assemblies and uses an 8 on 6-1/2" bolt pattern, making it a strong replacement choice when the existing drum is worn, damaged, heat-checked, or no longer braking smoothly.
R&P Service Insight
Brake drums work directly with the brake shoes to create stopping force. On heavy trailers, worn or damaged drums can reduce braking performance, create vibration, accelerate shoe wear, and make brake adjustment harder to dial in correctly.
- Drum Match: Verify the 12-1/4" diameter and 3-3/8" brake width before ordering.
- Axle Capacity: Intended for 10,000 lb axle applications where the drum specifications match.
- Brake System: Suitable for electric or hydraulic drum brake setups using the matching brake size.

R&P Repair Insight
