Trailer Cam
Bendix

Trailer-specific actuation components rely on accurately profiled cam elements to convert linear actuator motion into the commanded braking sequence. This part supports consistent brake actuation timing by delivering precise engagement characteristics within trailer brake actuator assemblies. The 002-014-001 VMRS code situates it within the trailer braking subsystem, highlighting compatibility with Bendix trailer valve bodies and linked mechanisms designed for reliable performance across a wide range of operating conditions. In field deployments, technicians replace worn cams to restore intended contact ratios and brake shoe engagement, which directly influences stopping distance and pedal feel. The device is engineered for durability under high-cycle operation and exposure to dust, moisture, and road grime, with a focus on maintaining a smooth, repeatable motion profile. From a fleet perspective, maintaining cam quality helps preserve predictable braking performance, reduces unintended slack, and supports safe operation during long-haul and regional driving, as well as in applications with frequent load changes and dynamic braking demands.
