Lectrotab XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit with ALC-1 Control - 12 x 9 inches

XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit with ALC-1 Control - 12 x 9

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 is designed for aluminum-hulled boats, offering a durable and economical solution for vessel stabilization and performance. Crafted from marine-grade 6005-T5 aluminum alloy, these trim tabs provide the strength comparable to 10 gauge stainless steel while maintaining a lightweight profile. Each tab is sealed with a corrosion-resistant epoxy coating, ensuring longevity in harsh marine environments. The kit includes two aluminum alloy tabs, each measuring 12 inches by 9 inches, combined with a precision-engineered actuator system that delivers smooth, quiet operation and reliable, maintenance-free performance. The non-metallic external structure of the actuators prevents corrosion and deterioration caused by sun exposure or water contact, making them ideal for extended use in saltwater or freshwater conditions. The internal pressure equalization system and internal brake enhance durability and stability, preventing unwanted movement during operation or backing down. The fully load-tested actuators can push up to 1,000 pounds of force, providing maximum lift and control. The system’s design eliminates hydraulic oil leaks, offering a cleaner, easier installation process, as no components require inside-the-boat mounting. The included Automatic Leveling Control (ALC) system automatically adjusts the trim tabs to keep your boat level, improving ride comfort, reducing side-to-side roll, and fore-aft pitch. This feature enhances fuel economy and overall boating experience. With a compact control unit measuring approximately 3.15 inches by 3.07 inches, the ALC can be easily mounted for quick access. The system is compatible with 12V and 24V DC power supplies, with a stroke length of 2.25 inches, ensuring precise positioning. This kit is suitable for boats ranging from 18 to 29 feet in length, making it versatile for various recreational and fishing vessels. The package includes the automatic leveling control, two aluminum alloy trim tabs, two actuators with 23-foot cables, and an instruction manual for straightforward installation and operation. Whether upgrading existing trim systems or installing for the first time, the Lectrotab XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit offers reliable, corrosion-resistant performance for enhanced boat handling and comfort.
