Perfect for Boat Trailers

Kodiak disc brakes installed on a trailer

If you tow a boat trailer, live in a coastal area, or experience a lot of snow, slush, and salt on the roads, you know how corrosive salt and water can be. Because disc brakes last longer than drum brakes, you should consider how things like rust might impact your trailer over time.


The Dacromet coating on these brakes offers great corrosion protection, even with frequent use in freshwater and saltwater. It can withstand 300 to 400 hours of continual exposure to salt spray before corrosion begins, which is comparable to galvanized steel. So - unless you're driving your trailer through water for 2 weeks straight with no chance for the brakes to dry - it'll be a while before any rust starts to form.


Get a Safer, More Comfortable Ride

Say goodbye to the days of your truck being pushed and pulled by your trailer. Disc brakes provide a safer, more comfortable ride than drum brakes. They offer shorter stopping distances and deliver consistent braking - even at highway speeds. So, you won't have to worry about things crashing around in your trailer or camper next time you reach unexpected traffic on the highway or debate if you can actually stop before that yellow light turns red.


Save Time and Money

More and more people are switching their trailers over to disc brakes. Not only do disc brakes provide more controlled braking than drum brakes, but they also save you money by having fewer parts to maintain.


diagram comparing the number of parts in drum brakes and disc brakes

Unlike drum brakes, which have springs, magnets, and shoes that may need to be continually adjusted or replaced, disc brakes are virtually maintenance-free. There are no springs, cables, or other little components that you'll need to worry about failing.


disc brake caliper and brake pad

The brake pads will naturally wear down, so eventually you'll have to replace them. But these pads are also way easier to replace than drum brake shoes. The caliper - where the pads are housed - is located on the outside of the brake assembly. This means you just have to remove that one part to replace the brake pads rather than having to remove the entire assembly like you would with drum brakes.


close up view of vented rotor

This particular kit can save you time and money over other disc brakes on the market as well. A slip-on rotor may be easier to install initially, but water can find its way between the rotor and your existing hub, causing uneven rotor wear or runout. With a 1-piece hub-and-rotor assembly, water and debris can't get in to cause any corrosion or contamination.


In addition, vented rotors, like these, disperse heat faster than non-vented rotors. When brakes retain heat, they are more likely to experience brake fade, or loss of braking power. So even if you take your boat or camper out every weekend, these trailer brakes will continue to offer excellent performance throughout their long life.


mounting bracket supporting disc brake

Kodiak disc brakes have a unique caliper mounting bracket as well. The side-support design puts all of the weight on the mounting bracket instead of on the bolts. This reduces premature wear and extends the life of the bolts, further ensuring optimal performance.


Determining the Bolt Pattern

If you want to remount your existing wheels after installing these brakes, you'll need a kit that offers the same bolt pattern. To determine the bolt pattern, count the number of bolt holes (or lug nuts) on your trailer's wheel. This will give you the first number in the pattern. To find the second number, just measure the distance between a bolt hole and the bolt hole across from it.


diagram showing how to measure even bolt pattern

For example on wheels with an even number of bolt holes: 6 on 5-1/2" means 6 bolt holes with 5-1/2" from the center of 1 hole to the center of the hole across from it.


diagram showing how to measure odd bolt pattern

And with an odd number of bolt holes: 5 on 4-1/2" means 5 bolt holes with 4-1/2" from the center of 1 hole to the farthest edge of one of the 2 farthest bolt holes.

See what our Experts say about this Kodiak Trailer Brakes

  • How Much Back Spacing Is Required For The Disc Brake Calipers On The Kodiak Disc Brakes # KOD27FR?
    The distance from the brake flange to the back of the caliper on the Kodiak Disc Brakes # KOD27FR is 2.4". This measurement is the maximum extension with worn brake pads so do note when you receive and install on your trailer the new pads will give you a slightly smaller number.

  • Which Surge Brake Actuator Works w/ 2,000 lbs Disc Brakes?
    For a set of 2,000 lbs disc brakes, you will want to use the Titan Zinc-Plated Brake Actuator w/ Electric Lockout item # T4745720. This is our lowest capacity disc brake actuator and even though it is rated for a 6,000 lbs trailer it will work perfectly with a lower weight.

  • How to Determine Correct Disc Brake Hub & Rotor Kit For Boat Trailer
    There is a lot of information you'll need to know in order to get hubs, rotors, and caliper disc brake kits for your boat trailer, as we don't have a list of fits for any model year Ranger boat trailers. So you need to know your axle capacity as well as the bearing numbers. You will need to take apart your current hub assembly and look at the bearings themselves; wipe away the grease and you should be able to see the part number stamped directly on them. If you are unable to find them,...

  • Recommended Disc Brakes for a 10" Wheel
    I am sorry the Kodiak Disc Brakes item # KOD27FR can not be converted to fit your spindle. In order for this to work on your trailer you would need to replace your spindles with item # TRU44FR. The only option I have that fits your spindle is the Kodiak Disc Brakes item # KOD59FR but it won't work with wheels smaller then 13".

  • Will the Kenda 10" Galvanized Wheel #AM3H490 Fit Over Kodiak Disc Brake Kit KOD27FR
    Hey Alex, yes, since the Kodiak disc assembly part # KOD27FR can work with wheel diameters that are between 10 and 13 inches the wheel part # AM3H490 that you referenced would fit and work great with it.

  • Will 12" Wheels Fit Disc Brakes on Trailer
    The only way you're getting a 12" wheel like # AM20153 on there is if you have a 2,000 lb axle and an 8" hub/rotor like the # KOD27FR. More than likely you have a 10" hub/rotor with a 3,500 lb axle. If that is the case, it will still depend on the style and brand of disc brakes that you have. For example, the Kodiak # KOD67FR can fit a 13" wheel like the # AM20245. The Dexter # T2HRCM10DAC works with 14" and 15" wheels. The Kodiak # K2R35D with a slip-on rotor also only works with 14"...

  • Parts Needed For Adding Brakes To a Small Boat Trailer For Towing With a Honda CR-V
    You simply need to ensure you use a surge brake assembly which is designed for lighter trailers. The Demco # DM62VR is rated for trailer up to 7,00lbs and Disc Brakes # KOD27FR. You will also likely need a 4-way to 5-way Adapter # C57187 for your Honda CR-V as this actuator has an electric lockout so the brakes will not activate when you back up. The Disc Brakes # KOD27FR above was designed to be used on a spindle using Bearings # L44649. If your trailer uses different size bearings please...

  • Availability of Disc Brake Kit for Triton WC2-2
    Hey Nicolas I wasn't able to get the axle capacity that your trailer has. With that I can see what parts you'd need to convert to electric over hydraulic disc brakes. I'd also need to know the wheel bolt pattern as well.

  • Do You Have Disc Brake Assembly for a 4-Lug Wheel?
    I am sorry but we do not. Our smallest is the Kodiak Disc Brakes - 8" Hub/Rotor item # KOD27FR, which has a 5 on 4-1/2 lug pattern. It fits wheels from 10" - 13". In order for this to work on your trailer you would need to replace your spindles with item # TRU44FR.
