Description
Overview:
This brake cable compensator kit for twin axle trailers (MPN 763 511) links the overrun/handbrake mechanism to the pair of axle brake cables and balances the pull to both axles. It is designed for systems using M8 detachable or Quick/Pronto fit Knott and AL-KO style brake cables. The kit provides an equaliser bar and two balance bars so that each axle receives even braking effort, helping maintain consistent brake performance and simplifying cable adjustment during service. Supplied with the required M10 and M8 fixings listed below, the assembly is suitable for use on a wide range of braked twin axle trailers found in plant, transport and general haulage. Use this kit when renewing brake cables or when the original compensator components are worn, seized or incomplete.
