View part listing and conditionIdentify Fastway ZIP Breakaway Switches, Pins & Cables
Fastway ZIP breakaway hardware can be identified by two details: the part number and what comes attached to the coiled cable. A full switch assembly, a replacement cable with a new pull pin, and a cable using your original pin are different parts. This reference helps you recognise the six original Fastway ZIP configurations offered in 4-foot and 6-foot lengths before replacing or matching an existing trailer breakaway connection.

Length is a fit check, not a trailer-model guarantee
Measure the distance between the switch location on your trailer and the tow vehicle's dedicated connection point. Fastway recommends 4 feet when that distance is under 3 feet and 6 feet when it exceeds 3 feet. The connection must also permit normal turns without pulling the pin while avoiding dragging or snagging.
Do not mix up breakaway and safety hardware. The red coiled ZIP line is meant to trigger the trailer's emergency brake switch if separation occurs. It is not a towing safety cable and does not replace the safety chains. Its operation also depends on the breakaway system's battery, wiring and brakes.
Examine parts for damage before reusing them
- Check the switch body for cracks, damaged leads, corrosion and loose mounting hardware.
- Look for a bent, scored or missing pull pin and examine its fit in the original switch.
- Inspect the coated coil, split ring and tow-vehicle clip for broken strands, wear, deformation or corrosion.
- Confirm the switch remains correctly located and the cable can pull the pin in a genuine separation without false activation during turns.
- Test the complete electric-brake breakaway system according to its manufacturer instructions. Replace a questionable component instead of relying on its previous appearance.

If you are comparing breakaway cables with the secondary trailer connection, see our CURT safety chain and cable identification reference. Breakaway switches serve an entirely separate function from the rated chains or safety cables used to help retain a disconnected trailer.
