  • More consistent stopping, even at highway speeds
  • Dramatically shorter stopping distance
• Maintenance costs are lower than for drum brakes
  • Fewer moving parts to maintain, repair and replace
• E-coat finish provides corrosion resistance for freshwater and limited saltwater use
• Integral hub-and-rotor assembly is 1 piece
  • Minimizes lateral runout to prevent warping
  • Provides smooth ride with balanced hub and rotor
  • Uses industry-standard bearings and seals (sold separately) - races included
  • Prevents heat-related damage with vented design that effectively dissipates heat
  • Includes wheel studs - lug nuts sold separately
• Cast iron calipers are self-adjusting for smooth, equal braking
  • Cast iron construction does not flex like aluminum
  • Low-drag design retracts piston farther than other calipers for a cooler-running brake
  • Silver cadmium piston is 2-1/2" in diameter - 30 percent larger than other brands
    • More braking torque than the competition
  • High-performance, ceramic brake pads
• Ductile iron mounting brackets provide strength and durability
  • Side-support design ensures that load is placed on bracket, not bolts
  • Extra embossing for additional thread contact ensures tight, secure mounting for caliper guide bolts
  • 4-Bolt brake flange mounting configuration - weld-on flange sold separately
• Kit includes 2 full brake assemblies
  • 2 E-coated, cast iron rotor-and-hub assemblies

Disc Brakes

More and more people are switching their trailers over to disc brakes, and with good reason. Disc brakes deliver consistent braking - even at highway speeds - unlike drum brakes, which often show a substantial drop in braking torque at higher speeds. In addition, disc brakes offer a substantially shorter stopping distance than drum brakes.

Disc brake calipers have only one moving part, rather than the many found in drum brakes. This means that there are fewer parts to maintain, fewer parts to get damaged and fewer parts to have to repair or replace, thus reducing maintenance costs.

Integral Hub-and-Rotor Assemblies

The integral hub-and-rotor is made from cast iron, matching SAE specifications. Cast iron is ideal for high-temperature operations and offers a favorable friction coefficient to ensure adequate stopping power. Kodiak's rotors are vented to effectively dissipate heat, dramatically reducing the incidence of heat-related damage. Furthermore, machined disc brakes minimize the chance of contamination between the hub and rotor, resulting in excellent performance and long life.

Calipers

Kodiak calipers are constructed of cast iron to prevent flexing. Less flex means more braking torque, resulting in smooth, even braking every time. The corrosion-resistant stainless steel piston is 30 percent larger than standard pistons, ensuring shorter stopping distance and increased torque. In addition, the unique low-drag design of Kodiak's calipers allows the piston to retract farther than in most standard models, giving you a cooler-running brake.

Mounting Brackets

Designed for axles with 4-bolt brake flange configurations, the included mounting brackets are made of heavy-duty ductile iron that is embossed to provide additional threading for guide bolts. The added thread strength ensures a tighter, more secure connection between the caliper and bracket. Another unique feature of Kodiak's brackets is the side-support angle, which guarantees that the load is carried by the bracket, rather than the bolts.
