Trailer Breakaway Switch Lanyard with 48-Inch Steel Cable and High-Temperature Nylon Pull – CURT 52020
A trailer breakaway switch lanyard links the tow vehicle to a compatible breakaway switch so the cable can pull the switch if the trailer separates. The CURT 52020 replacement uses a 48-inch steel cable and a high-temperature nylon pull designed for CURT switch 52010 and compatible electric-trailer-brake systems.
When correctly connected as part of a complete powered breakaway system, releasing the cable activates the trailer brakes. The selected listing option contains one lanyard, while a two-pack is also offered. A breakaway battery, switch and other system components are sold separately, so this replacement cable alone does not create a functional emergency-braking system.
