Lectrotab XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit with ALC-1 Control - 12 x 12 inches

XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit with ALC-1 Control - 12 x 12

The Lectrotab Aluminum Alloy trim tabs are uniquely designed to meet the needs of Aluminum hulled boats and are an economical option for all boats. All Aluminum Alloy tabs are fabricated with an extremely strong "no-break" polypropylene hinge. All Aluminum tabs are sealed with a corrosion resistant epoxy coating.

Combined with a precision-engineered actuator, this kit is built to combine quiet operation with a non-hydraulic, maintenance free design. The unit is corrosion free, ensures very accurate tab positioning, provides maximum lift force, and is totally self-contained for easy installation. The actuator assembly is packaged in a non-metallic permanently sealed housing. No components need to be installed inside the boat.

Most importantly, unlike hydraulic trim tabs, there is no oil to leak out. The actuator incorporates either a standard or low profile transom mounting bracket.

The Automatic Leveling Control (ALC) will automatically adjust your trim tabs to maintain a level boat for a more comfortable and enjoyable ride. Additionally, the ALC automatically corrects the roll from side to side and pitch from fore to aft to enhance your boating experience and improve your fuel economy.

The Lectrotab XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit with ALC-1 Control is designed for boats ranging from 18 to 32 feet, providing reliable and maintenance-free performance. Constructed from marine-grade 6005-T5 aluminum alloy, each trim tab offers exceptional strength comparable to 10-gauge stainless steel while maintaining a lightweight profile. The tabs are sealed with a corrosion-resistant epoxy coating, ensuring durability in harsh marine environments. The kit features a no-break polypropylene hinge tested over 300,000 cycles, which enhances longevity and prevents failure during heavy use. The upper ram seal location is protected from fouling and barnacle growth, reducing maintenance needs. The system employs internal pressure equalization and an internal brake to prevent unwanted movement, offering smooth and quiet operation. The actuators are fully load-tested to exert up to 1,000 pounds of force and include a 2.25-inch stroke, ensuring maximum lift and precise control. The external structure is non-metallic, preventing corrosion and deterioration caused by sun exposure or water. The automatic leveling control (ALC-1) automatically adjusts the trim tabs to keep the boat level, reducing side-to-side roll and fore-aft pitch for a more comfortable ride. It also improves fuel efficiency by optimizing the boat’s attitude automatically. The kit includes two aluminum alloy tabs, two actuators with 23-foot cables, and the ALC-1 control module, making installation straightforward with no need for components inside the boat. The control operates on 12 or 24 volts DC, with a compact mounting footprint for easy placement. This kit is suitable for a range of boat sizes and provides a robust, corrosion-free solution for enhanced handling and ride quality in various marine conditions.

Features:

• All tabs sealed with a corrosion-resistant epoxy coating for durability

• Constructed from marine-grade 6005-T5 aluminum alloy for strength and lightweight performance

• Polypropylene hinge tested over 300,000 cycles to ensure long-term reliability

• Design prevents damage to upper ram seal from fouling or barnacles

• Internal pressure equalization system maintains consistent performance

• Internal brake system prevents unwanted tab movement during operation or backing down

• Quiet operation for a smooth boating experience

• Actuators are load tested to exert up to 1,000 lbs of force for maximum lift

• Non-metallic external structure resists corrosion and sun deterioration

• Automatic Leveling Control (ALC-1) maintains a level boat, reducing roll and pitch
