2. Overrun brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overrun_brake

   Surge brakes easily fill the gap of heavy enough to have brakes, but light enough not to require a more advanced braking systems that vehicles towing these kinds of trailers would not be equipped with. That same rule applies to both the commonly sold kits and the rental trailers.

3. Ford TowCommand - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_TowCommand

   With adjustable +/- trailer braking gain in a digital readout from 0.0 (no trailer brakes) to 10.0 (full trailer braking) in 0.5 increments and a manual override lever (to test trailer braking action), the Ford 'built into the dash' TBC provides smooth braking even when pulling up to a 15,000 lb 4-axle conventional (receiver mounted) or 26,000 ...

4. Trailer brake controller - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trailer_brake_controller

   A brake controller is usually an original equipment manufacturer or aftermarket-installed device or module. It is mounted to the tow vehicle's driver's-side dashboard area, and engages a trailer's electrical braking system either time delayed, or in proportion to the tow vehicle's brake engagement when slowing down or coming to a halt.

   Since brakes are a safety feature maintenance on brakes shall be in the form of preventive maintenance which means that it shall be performed before any breakdown happens. Maintenance [2] shall always be symmetric on the whole axle of a trailer. If changing items on one side the same items shall be changed on the other side to ensure ...

6. S-cam - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-cam

   The principle of the S-cam allows the brakes of big vehicles to be more compact and less moving parts, since it only relies on a rotating shaft. Generally speaking, a tractor trailer requires more brakes than a typical vehicle, so making the brakes as simple and as cost effective as possible is very important. [citation needed]

7. Anti-lock braking system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-lock_braking_system

   A Combined Braking System therefore distributes the brake force also to the non-braked wheel to lower the possibility of a lock-up, increase deceleration and reduce suspension pitch. With a single [rear] CBS the brake pressure applied on the rear brake (pedal) is simultaneously distributed to the front wheel.
