It links the brake chamber pushrod to the S-camshaft and automatically maintains proper clearance between the brake shoes and drum as the linings wear, helping keep brake stroke within legal limits. It is typically replaced when the adjuster seizes, fails to adjust (causing long pushrod travel), or shows internal gear wear. The unit fits a 1.5-inch diameter, 28-spline camshaft with a 6-inch arm and includes a 5/8"-18 clevis kit, commonly used with Type 30 brake chambers on many Class 7–8 trucks and trailers.
