Lectrotab XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit with Rocker Switch - 12 x 24 inches

XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit with Rocker Switch - 12 x 24

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 new flat rocker switch has improved sealing to prevent water entry and recessed rocker to prevent breaking. Specially designed to provide and "instant stop" circuit when the switches are released, thus preventing actuator over-run.

The Lectrotab XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit with Rocker Switch is designed specifically for aluminum-hulled boats, providing an affordable yet durable solution for optimal vessel control. Crafted from marine-grade 6005-T5 aluminum alloy, each trim tab offers impressive strength comparable to 10 gauge stainless steel, ensuring long-lasting performance. The kit includes two aluminum alloy tabs, each sealed with a corrosion-resistant epoxy coating, making them suitable for harsh marine environments. The tabs feature a robust "no-break" polypropylene hinge tested over 300,000 cycles, guaranteeing reliability even after extensive use. The upper ram seal is protected from damage by barnacles or fouling, maintaining smooth operation over time. The internal pressure equalization system and brake mechanism prevent unwanted movement during transit or backing down, ensuring precise control and safety during operation. The design emphasizes quiet operation and incorporates fully load-tested actuators capable of exerting up to 1,000 lbs of force. These actuators are housed in a sealed, non-metallic enclosure to prevent corrosion and deterioration from sun exposure or submersion. The kit's DC-powered actuators feature a 2.25-inch stroke length and come with 23-foot cables for flexible installation. The included flat rocker switch is designed with enhanced sealing and a recessed profile to prevent water entry and damage, offering an “instant stop” feature to avoid actuator overrun. This kit is suitable for boats ranging from 28 to 48 feet, making it ideal for a wide range of marine vessels. The package includes everything needed for installation, including the switch, two aluminum alloy tabs, two actuators with cables, and an instruction manual. With no hydraulic oil to leak and a maintenance-free design, the Lectrotab XKA Trim Tab Kit ensures reliable, quiet, and precise trim control for your boat.
