Lectrotab XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit with Rocker Switch – 9 x 9 Inches for Boats 14-19 Feet

XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit with Rocker Switch - 9 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.

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 is specifically designed for boats ranging from 14 to 19 feet, offering an economical and durable solution for precise boat control. Crafted from marine-grade 6005-T5 aluminum alloy, these trim tabs provide exceptional strength and corrosion resistance, ensuring long-lasting performance in harsh marine environments. Each tab is sealed with a corrosion-resistant epoxy coating, preventing deterioration from water exposure and environmental elements. The aluminum alloy construction provides strength comparable to 10 gauge stainless steel, making these trim tabs both lightweight and highly resilient.

The kit features a maintenance-free, non-hydraulic actuator system that operates quietly and delivers maximum lift force with high accuracy. The actuator is housed in a sealed, non-metallic enclosure that eliminates the risk of corrosion and does not require installation inside the boat. This self-contained design simplifies installation and maintenance, as there are no hydraulic oil leaks or hydraulic components to service. The actuator can withstand loads up to 1000 pounds, ensuring reliable performance under various boat conditions. The system utilizes an internal pressure equalization mechanism and an internal brake system to prevent unwanted movement during operation or backing down.

Complementing the trim tabs is a flat, sealed rocker switch with an improved design that prevents water entry and damage. The switch features an instant stop circuit, which halts actuator movement immediately when released, providing precise control and safety. The switch's compact dimensions and mounting hole specifications make it easy to install on your boat's control panel. The kit includes two aluminum alloy trim tabs, two actuators with 23-foot cables, a flat rocker switch, and an instruction manual for straightforward setup. This kit offers a reliable, corrosion-proof, and easy-to-install solution for enhancing your boat's handling and performance.

Features:

• All tabs sealed with a corrosion-resistant epoxy coating

• Equivalent strength to 10 gauge stainless steel

• "No Break" polypropylene hinge tested over 300,000 cycles to a 90-degree bend without failure

• Upper ram seal location protected from damage due to fouled rams or barnacles

• Utilizes internal pressure equalization system for reliability

• Internal brake system prevents unwanted tab movement when underway or reversing

• Quiet operation ensures minimal noise disturbance

• Actuators are load tested to push up to 1000 lbs of force

• Non-metallic external structure resists corrosion and deterioration from sun exposure or water
