There is provided a pivotable member 10 for a brake compensator device. The pivotable member has a cylindrical bearing surface 12, which extends about a pivot axis 16, and a spherical bearing surface 14, which extends about a pivot point 18. Each of the cylindrical bearing surface and the spherical bearing surface is for forming a connection between the pivotable member and a brake actuator. The spherical bearing surface is formed intermediate two spaced apart portions of the cylindrical bearing surface such that the pivot point is coincident with the pivot axis. Either bearing surface may be discontinuous. The pivotable member may be U-shaped in cross-section. The pivotable member may include a central web 22 between two spaced apart flanges 24a,b, the flanges each forming one of the spaced apart portions. These flanges may include projections 26a,b which have the spherical bearing surface formed at their free ends. The pivotable member may have two apertures 28, 30 for connecting to a brake cable or rod. The apertures may be spherical recesses. The pivotable member is for use in trailers with either a single axle brake compensator device or a multi-axle brake compensator device.
