Outopakkle 5408 Trailer Breakaway Cable Assembly 44" Stainless-Style S-Hook — Fits DA10/DA16/DA20/DA91, Heavy-Duty Replacement

Outopakkle 5408 is a heavy-duty breakaway cable assembly designed to engage hydraulic surge actuators (DA10, DA16, DA20, DA91) and stop trailers safely if they separate from the tow vehicle.

This 44-inch, 3/32" stainless-style cable with an S-hook attachment provides a reliable mechanical connection between your trailer actuator and tow vehicle. Built to meet common replacement specifications for multiple actuator models, the 5408 assembly is a straightforward, ready-to-fit part that helps restore proper breakaway function after wear or accidental damage.

How does this breakaway cable work with hydraulic surge actuators?

The cable links the actuator’s breakaway lever to the tow vehicle so that, in the event of an unintended separation, tension on the cable triggers the actuator’s hydraulic braking mechanism. It’s a simple mechanical trigger: when subjected to the pull created by a trailer disconnect, the cable pulls the actuator’s lever or pin to apply the trailer brakes.

• 44" overall length to span typical actuator-to-tow vehicle distances
• 3/32" thickness for a balance of flexibility and tensile strength
• S-hook end for fast attachment to hitch or tow plate
• Compatible with DA10, DA16, DA20, DA91 actuator models

Will this part fit my trailer’s actuator model?

Yes—this assembly is specified to replace or match the breakaway cable used on Outopakkle-compatible DA10, DA16, DA20 and DA91 surge actuators. Verify your actuator model number before ordering to ensure a direct fit and correct engagement point.

• Direct fit for DA10, DA16, DA20, DA91 actuator families
• Works as a like-for-like replacement for worn or damaged cables
• No special tools required for most installations
• Check actuator manual for exact routing and attachment guidance

How do I install and maintain the 5408 breakaway cable?

Installation typically involves hooking the S-hook to the tow vehicle’s designated anchor and connecting the opposite end to the actuator’s breakaway lever or pin. Periodic inspection for frays, corrosion, and secure connections will keep the system ready for use; replace immediately if any damage is present.

• Attach S-hook to the tow vehicle’s breakaway anchor point
• Secure cable to actuator lever or pin following actuator instructions
• Inspect cable for fraying, rust, or stretched sections before each trip
• Replace the cable if you notice wear or compromised attachment points
