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

XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit with ALC-1 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.

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 is designed specifically for aluminum-hulled boats, offering a reliable and cost-effective solution for optimal boat performance. Crafted from marine-grade 6005-T5 aluminum alloy, these trim tabs provide an impressive strength comparable to 10 gauge stainless steel, ensuring durability in harsh marine environments. The kit includes two 12 x 12-inch aluminum alloy tabs sealed with a corrosion-resistant epoxy coating, making them highly resistant to saltwater and environmental wear. Each tab features a "no-break" polypropylene hinge tested over 300,000 cycles to withstand a 90-degree bend without failure, guaranteeing long-lasting operation. The tabs' upper ram seals are positioned to prevent damage from fouling or barnacle growth, maintaining functionality over time. The internal pressure equalization system and internal brake prevent unwanted movement during operation or backing down, ensuring precise control and safety. The fully load-tested actuators can push up to 1,000 pounds of force, providing maximum lift and control, while operating quietly thanks to a precision-engineered design. The external non-metallic structure resists corrosion and deterioration caused by sun exposure or water, eliminating concerns about rust or degradation. The kit's automatic leveling control (ALC-1) continuously adjusts the trim tabs to keep your boat level, enhancing comfort, stability, and fuel efficiency by automatically correcting side-to-side roll and fore-to-aft pitch. The system is compatible with 12 or 24-volt DC power sources, with a stroke length of 2.25 inches and a cable length of 23 feet for flexible installation. Designed for boats ranging from 18 to 32 feet, this comprehensive kit includes two aluminum alloy tabs, two actuators with cables, an automatic leveling control, and an instruction manual, providing everything needed for installation and operation. The ALC-1 control unit measures approximately 3.15 x 3.07 inches and mounts through a 2-inch hole, making it straightforward to integrate into your boat’s dashboard or console. This product offers a maintenance-free, corrosion-proof solution that improves boat handling and ride comfort without hydraulic oil leaks or complex servicing, making it an ideal upgrade for your vessel.
