Lectrotab XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit with One-Touch Control - 12 x 12 inches

XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit with One-Touch 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.

Lectrotab's one-touch leveling LED control puts the complete control of your trim tabs at your fingertips.

The Lectrotab XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit is designed for boats with aluminum hulls, offering an economical yet durable solution for improved performance and handling. The kit features two 12 x 12 inch trim tabs crafted from marine-grade 6005-T5 aluminum alloy, providing an equivalent strength to 10 gauge stainless steel. Each tab is sealed with a corrosion-resistant epoxy coating to ensure longevity in harsh marine environments. The tabs are equipped with a "no break" polypropylene hinge, tested over 300,000 cycles to withstand repeated use without failure, and feature an internal pressure equalization system to prevent damage from fouling or barnacle buildup. The external non-metallic structure is completely corrosion-proof, resistant to sun exposure and water deterioration, making it ideal for long-term outdoor use.
Built for quiet operation and maintenance-free performance, the kit includes a precision-engineered actuator that can push up to 1,000 pounds of force. The actuator is housed in a sealed, non-metallic casing, eliminating the need for hydraulic oil and preventing leaks. The 12-volt DC actuator has a stroke length of 2.25 inches, with a cable length of 23 feet, allowing flexible installation options. The kit also features an internal brake system that prevents unwanted tab movement during operation or backing down, enhancing safety and control.
The one-touch leveling LED control allows for easy, precise adjustment of the trim tabs from the helm. Its compact 3 x 3 inch rocker switch fits standard mounting holes and supports 12 or 24-volt operation, suitable for most marine electrical systems. Suitable for boats ranging from 18 to 32 feet in length, this kit provides maximum lift force and reliable performance for improving boat handling, planing, and fuel efficiency.
In the box, you'll find the complete trim tab kit with two aluminum alloy tabs, two actuators with 23-foot cables, a one-touch control, and an instruction manual. Installation is straightforward, with no components requiring placement inside the boat, reducing maintenance and potential leak points. For detailed installation instructions, refer to the official manual available at this link.
