It automatically maintains proper clearance between the brake shoes and drum by sensing the pushrod stroke and adjusting the linkage as the lining wears. The unit features a 5.5-inch arm length, a straight clevis with 5/8"-18 threads, and fits camshafts with 1-1/2" diameter and 28 splines. It is designed for Type 24 and 30 brake chambers and is commonly replaced during brake service or when the adjuster fails to maintain stroke, ensuring consistent braking performance and compliance with safety standards.
