This zinc-plated actuator features an aluminum master cylinder and uses a surge mechanism that automatically synchronizes with your tow vehicle's braking system. When the trailer pushes forward during braking, the actuator telescopes and applies pressure to the master cylinder, creating the hydraulic force needed for effective stopping power. Designed for 2-inch hitch balls, it includes an integrated reverse solenoid and offers multiple mounting configurations for straightforward installation on tandem axle applications.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eUPF Model#: 34044\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCapacity: 7,500 lbs\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTandem Axle Application\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFits 2\" Hitch Balls\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAluminum Master Cylinder\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eZinc Plated\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMultiple Mounting Options\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIntegrated Reverse Solenoid\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2 style=\"margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003ch3 style=\"margin-top: 5px; margin-bottom: 0; font-size: 12pt;\"\u003eHow does a surge actuator work?\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhen you brake, the trailer's momentum pushes it forward toward the tow vehicle — that \"surge\" telescopes the actuator inward, which presses the master cylinder and sends hydraulic pressure to the trailer's disc brakes. The harder the tow vehicle brakes, the more the trailer surges forward and the more braking force is applied. No electrical connection to the tow vehicle is required.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3 style=\"margin-top: 5px; margin-bottom: 0; font-size: 12pt;\"\u003eWhat is the weight capacity of this actuator, and how do I know if it's right for my trailer?\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis actuator is rated for tandem axle trailers up to 7,500 lbs. To confirm fit, check your trailer's Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) on the VIN plate. If it's at or under 7,500 lbs and you have a tandem axle setup with disc brakes, this is the correct model. For single-axle applications, the companion DX7.5L A60 Single Axle version (replaces UFP 47550) is the appropriate choice instead.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3 style=\"margin-top: 5px; margin-bottom: 0; font-size: 12pt;\"\u003eWhat UFP part number does this replace?\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis Dexter actuator directly replaces UFP model 34044. UFP was acquired by Dexter Axle, and the DX7.5L A60 is the current production equivalent. The part number on the Wholesale Marine listing is 099-060-20.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3 style=\"margin-top: 5px; margin-bottom: 0; font-size: 12pt;\"\u003eWhat hitch ball size does this fit, and does it come with a reverse solenoid?\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe DX7.5L A60 is for 2-inch hitch balls, the standard size on most boat trailer applications at this weight rating. It includes an integrated reverse solenoid, which disengages the surge mechanism when backing up so the brakes don't drag when you're reversing down the boat ramp.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3 style=\"margin-top: 5px; margin-bottom: 0; font-size: 12pt;\"\u003eWhy does this use an aluminum master cylinder, and is that a problem for saltwater use?\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe aluminum master cylinder keeps weight down compared to cast iron alternatives and resists corrosion well when properly maintained. The actuator body is also zinc-plated for corrosion resistance. For best longevity in saltwater environments, rinse the actuator with fresh water after each launch and retrieve cycle and inspect the master cylinder periodically for pitting or seal wear.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3 style=\"margin-top: 5px; margin-bottom: 0; font-size: 12pt;\"\u003eWhat is the difference between this A60 and the A75 Drop-N-Go actuator also sold at Wholesale Marine?\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe A60 is a standard inner-member actuator that bolts to your existing coupler housing. The A75 Drop-N-Go is designed for quick removal. The inner member slides out of the outer housing without tools, allowing you to easily swap the braking assembly between trailers or remove it for service. If your trailer uses the A60-style outer housing (UFP 34044 replacement), this is the correct inner member.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c!-- snippet location product_description --\u003e \u003cp\u003e California Residents: \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn11.bigcommerce.com\/s-6rtev5owwo\/stencil\/4c731d90-821b-013f-159c-7692448c53ea\/e\/5184b8b0-7ec1-013f-1cb3-16eaae88d95a\/img\/warning.png\" alt=\"warning sign\" class=\"warningImg\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e WARNING \u003c\/strong\u003e Cancer and Reproductive Harm - \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.p65warnings.ca.gov\/\" class=\"productWarning\"\u003eP65Warnings.ca.gov\u003c\/a\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dexter Axle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67605219082555,"sku":"DEX-099-060-20","price":464.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0907\/4271\/8779\/files\/Dexter-99-060-20-DX-7.5L-A60-Inner-Member-Actuator-with-Solenoid__77518.1739477124.jpg?v=1790705443","url":"https:\/\/clinchriverfishingusa.com\/products\/dexter-axle-a-60-inner-member-disc-w-solenoid-dex-099-060-20","provider":"Clinch River Fishing USA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
