- CSA Z240 — Recreational Vehicles and Manufactured Housing standard
- FMVSS / CMVSS — Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (U.S. and Canada) for braking performance
- UL Electrical Standards — Testing of brake magnets, wiring, and electrical components
What QAI Tests
- Braking performance and stopping power
- Electrical current draw and magnet strength
- Resistance to water, dust, heat, and corrosion
- Mechanical durability and long-term wear
- Self-adjusting mechanism performance (when applicable)
- Safety labeling and traceability
Trailer brakes that carry the QAI Certified mark (including many TruRyde® and Lippert® models) have been independently verified to meet these strict standards, giving you confidence in safety and reliability.
