Knott brake lining set 250 x 40
Wheel brake type: 25-4303 (hydraulic)

Brake linings, also known as brake shoes, are pressed against the inside of the brake drums during braking, causing the wheel to slow down. The brake linings are held in position by springs. Firstly, there are the 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 retaining spring running 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 brake linings, it is best to look at the numbers on your current brake lining. Once you have found these, you can easily replace your brake lining 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 lining and make sure 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 working 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. If the hub nut is used multiple times, it will no longer lock correctly, requiring a new nut. A new nut will also tighten more securely, due to the locking mechanism it must provide.

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