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

XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit with ALC-1 Control - 9 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 provides an efficient and durable solution for boats ranging from 16 to 25 feet in length. Crafted from marine-grade 6005-T5 aluminum alloy, these trim tabs are designed to withstand harsh marine environments while delivering reliable performance. The kit includes two aluminum alloy tabs sealed with a corrosion-resistant epoxy coating, ensuring longevity and resistance to corrosion from water exposure. The tabs feature a no-break polypropylene hinge tested over 300,000 cycles to a 90-degree bend, offering exceptional durability and flexibility. Their design incorporates an internal pressure equalization system and a non-metallic external structure that prevents deterioration caused by sun and water exposure, making them suitable for both freshwater and saltwater applications. The integrated actuator assembly is fully sealed in a non-metallic housing, eliminating the need for maintenance and preventing oil leaks typical of hydraulic systems. With a stroke length of 2.25 inches and a force capacity of up to 1,000 pounds, these actuators provide precise and powerful control. The kit's automatic leveling control (ALC) dynamically adjusts the trim tabs to maintain a level boat, enhance comfort, and improve fuel efficiency by automatically correcting roll and pitch. The system's quiet operation and internal brake prevent unwanted movement during transit or backing down, ensuring smooth and stable boat handling. Installation is simplified with a 12-volt DC power supply, and the control unit measures approximately 3.15 by 3.07 inches, fitting easily in accessible locations. The kit includes one automatic leveling control, two aluminum alloy trim tabs, two actuators with 23-foot cables, and an instruction manual for straightforward setup. Designed for boats with an overall length of 16 to 25 feet, this kit offers a maintenance-free, corrosion-resistant upgrade that enhances boat performance and safety.
