The ESCO replacement breakaway cable and pull pin (CABLE LBS48-16) is designed to restore proper operation of the ESCO LBS48-16 trailer breakaway switch used on trailers with electric brake systems.

This durable 48-inch steel safety cable connects the breakaway switch to the tow vehicle. If the trailer becomes disconnected during towing, the cable pulls the pin from the breakaway switch, activating the trailer’s electric brakes and bringing the trailer to a controlled stop.

Replacing a damaged or missing breakaway cable ensures your trailer’s emergency brake system functions properly and remains compliant with trailer safety regulations.

This replacement cable is commonly used on utility trailers, dump trailers, equipment trailers, car haulers, cargo trailers, and RV trailers equipped with electric brakes and breakaway battery systems.

How a Breakaway Cable Works

1. The cable attaches to the tow vehicle hitch or safety chain loop.

2. The pull pin is inserted into the breakaway switch mounted on the trailer tongue.

3. If the trailer separates from the vehicle, the cable pulls the pin from the switch.
