Lectrotab XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab 9 x 18 for Boats 21 to 30 Feet

XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab - 9 x 18

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 Lectrotab XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab, measuring 9 by 18 inches, provides an efficient and durable solution for boats ranging from 21 to 30 feet in length. Crafted with marine-grade 6005-T5 aluminum alloy, these tabs are designed for strength, corrosion resistance, and longevity. The all-aluminum construction is sealed with a high-quality epoxy coating, ensuring protection against saltwater, sun exposure, and other harsh marine conditions. The tabs feature a no-break polypropylene hinge, tested over 300,000 cycles to withstand repeated use without failure, and are equivalent in strength to 10-gauge stainless steel. This design guarantees reliable performance and durability in demanding environments. The internal pressure equalization system and corrosion-proof sealing enhance longevity, while the integrated brake system prevents unwanted movement during operation. The non-metallic external structure is immune to rust or deterioration, making these trim tabs ideal for maintaining optimal boat performance and stability. The precision-engineered actuator, rated to push 1000 lbs of force, operates quietly and is maintenance-free, eliminating the need for hydraulic oil or complex servicing. Each actuator is housed in a sealed, non-metallic casing that prevents water ingress and corrosion, simplifying installation and ensuring long-term reliability. The kit includes two aluminum alloy tabs, two actuators with 23-foot cables, and an instruction manual for easy setup. The 12-volt DC actuators have a stroke length of 2.25 inches and are suitable for boats with transom mounting options. Please note that control switches are sold separately. This trim tab system offers maximum lift force, precise positioning, and a maintenance-free design, making it an excellent choice for boat owners seeking durability and performance without the complexity of hydraulic systems.
