Good Breakaway switch?

[John Drabik]

I`m looking for a GOOD breakaway switch for my 6 ton trailer. (electric brakes both axles) The imported plastic one that it came with isnt rugged enough to withstand repeated use. I dissected it and found the steel contact mounts bend when reinserting the breakaway activation plug. Cheesy construction.
Can someone suggest to me where I can buy a GOOD rugged one?

Thanks for your response. I called the Hopkins company who made the breakaway system and bitched about the cheesy Mexican made switch that failed. The said they would replace it and I said fine as long as the replacement isnt made in Mexico. He said he would do what he could. A week later I recieved not one but three new switches. All made in China.
But they do stand behind their product.

Sounds like you have been to New London and New haven. hahahaaaa
