VALERYD supplies brake anchor plates for braked trailers, caravans and other trailers with drum brakes.

The brake anchor plate is an important part of the wheel brake and acts as a fixing point for several brake components, such as brake shoes, expander, springs and reverse lever parts. A damaged or worn brake anchor plate can affect the brakes' function and should be checked when servicing the wheel brake. VALERYD supplies brake anchor plates for trailers in several versions, with fast delivery from our own warehouse in Sweden.

How to choose the right brake anchor plate

When choosing a brake anchor plate, it is important to check the wheel brake's make, model, brake diameter, brake width, hole pattern, fixing and whether the brake anchor plate is for the right- or left-hand side. Always check the existing wheel brake and any article numbers before ordering.

Brake anchor plates come in several versions depending on the axle, wheel brake and braking system. A brake anchor plate for a trailer or caravan should be chosen according to the correct brake model, dimensions, fixing and side, not just the trailer type or total weight.

How do I know the right size of brake anchor plate?

Measure and check the existing brake anchor plate and wheel brake. Important details are the brake drum's inner diameter, the brake shoes' width, hole pattern, centre hole, the position of the brake cable and the fixing for springs, expander and reverse lever parts. The right brake anchor plate is important for the brake shoes and other parts to work correctly.
