Knott brake lining set 250 x 40
Wheel brake type: 25-4066 (hydraulic)

Brake linings, also known as brake shoes, are pressed against the inside of the brake drums during braking, slowing down the wheel. The brake linings are held in position by springs. Firstly, there are tension springs, which sit horizontally between the brake linings. These ensure that the brake linings return to a neutral position after braking. Additionally, there is a securing spring vertically through the wheel brake, which ensures that the brake lining remains attached to the anchor plate. This brake lining set contains all the wear parts of a wheel brake.

When replacing your trailer's brake linings, it is best to look for the numbers on your current brake linings. Once you have found them, you can replace your brake linings without any issues with the product bearing the same numbers. If you are unsure or can no longer read the numbers, you can look at the brand, dimensions, and mounting holes of the brake linings. Pay close attention to which holes and notches you are currently using with your brake linings and ensure that they match the holes and notches in the new product.

You can also always contact our customer service, we are happy to help you find the right brake linings.

Replacing Hub Nut

When performing work on the trailer's braking system and the hub nut is removed, it is advisable to also replace the hub nut. The current hub nuts are steel locking nuts designed for one-time use. With repeated use of the hub nut, it may not lock correctly anymore, requiring a new nut. A new nut will also tighten slightly harder, due to the locking mechanism the nut has to exert.

It is possible that your Knott brake linings are delivered in a plain box, but these are genuine Knott brake linings.
