Lectrotab XKA Stainless Steel Trim Tab Kit with MLC-1 Control - 9 x 12 inches

XKA Stainless Steel Trim Tab Kit with MLC-1 Control - 9 x 12

The Lectrotab stainless steel trim tab design provides unmatched strength and reliability. All stainless steel tabs are fabricated with a continuous rolled and pinned hinge. This design eliminates the need for welding.

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 MLC-1 is a microprocessor based trim tab control that can move both tabs simultaneously at the touch of a single button. It includes LED tab position indicators which will automatically dim in darkness and brighten in sunlight.

The Lectrotab XKA Stainless Steel Trim Tab Kit with MLC-1 Control offers a durable and reliable solution for boat trim adjustment. Crafted from 12 gauge, 304 stainless steel, the trim tabs provide unmatched strength and corrosion resistance, making them suitable for marine environments. The continuous rolled and pinned hinge design eliminates the need for welding, enhancing durability and ease of installation. Each trim tab features an upper ram seal position that prevents damage from fouling or barnacle growth, ensuring longevity and consistent performance. The internal pressure equalization system and pressure-activated brake contribute to smooth, precise control and prevent unwanted movement during operation.
Powered by a 12 V DC actuator, the kit delivers up to 1000 lbs of force, providing maximum lift and stability. The actuator’s stroke length of 2.25 inches and external non-metallic housing ensure quiet, maintenance-free operation that is impervious to corrosion and deterioration from sun exposure or water contact. The kit includes two stainless steel tabs, two actuators with 23-foot cables, a manual leveling control, and an instruction manual, allowing for a straightforward installation process suitable for boats ranging from 16 to 25 feet.
Designed to be fully self-contained, the system does not require components to be installed inside the boat, simplifying maintenance and reducing potential leaks common with hydraulic systems. The MLC-1 microprocessor-based control allows for simultaneous movement of both tabs with a single button press, featuring LED indicators that automatically adjust brightness for visibility in varying lighting conditions. The control dimensions and mounting hole specifications are optimized for easy integration into your boat’s transom area.
This trim tab kit is ideal for boat owners seeking a robust, maintenance-free solution that enhances handling and stability. The corrosion-resistant stainless steel and sealed actuator housing ensure reliable operation over years of exposure to marine elements. With comprehensive features like internal pressure equalization and load testing, the Lectrotab XKA kit provides precision control and peace of mind. Please consult the included manual for detailed installation instructions and operational guidance.
