Brake Magnets and the difference between 10-inch and 12-inch
- 10-inch brake magnets have Green leads, except for Dexter Magnets, which have black leads.
- 12-inch brake magnets have white leads, except for Dexter Magnets, which have black leads.
- 12-inch magnets sold with green leads are 10-inch magnets with less copper wire and lower braking capacity.
12-inch electric brake magnets are used to actuate the brakes on trailers. A typical setup consists of two electromagnets attached to the backing plate of the brake assembly. When the brake controller is activated, it sends an electric current to the magnets, which causes them to attract. This pulls the brake shoes against the brake drum, stopping the trailer.
How to check magnet wear
- Check the four small holes on top of the magnet.
- These holes are warning indicators that display magnet wear.
- Extreme magnets wear if there are no holes or fewer than four holes.
- When the magnet holes on the face have worn, it is time to replace the magnet.
