Lectrotab XKA12X12A 12x12 Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit for Boats 18-32 Feet

The Lectrotab XKA12X12A is a complete 12" x 12" aluminum alloy trim tab system designed for boats 18 to 32 feet in length. Originally engineered for aluminum hulled boats, these trim tabs offer an economical yet durable solution for all boat types seeking improved performance and stability.

Non-Hydraulic Electric Actuator System:

Unlike traditional hydraulic trim tabs, the Lectrotab system features precision-engineered electric actuators that are completely maintenance-free with no hydraulic fluid to leak. The actuator assembly is housed in a non-metallic, permanently sealed enclosure that cannot corrode and requires no internal boat installation. Each actuator delivers up to 1,000 lbs of push force with quiet operation and includes an internal brake system that prevents unwanted tab movement when underway or in reverse.

Durable Aluminum Construction:

• Marine-grade 6005-T5 aluminum alloy with strength equivalent to 10-gauge stainless steel
• Sealed with corrosion-resistant epoxy coating for maximum longevity
• Extremely strong "no-break" polypropylene hinge tested over 300,000 cycles to 90° without failure
• Non-metallic components will not deteriorate from sun exposure or saltwater immersion

Advanced Engineering Features:

• Upper ram seal location protected from damage due to fouling or barnacle growth
• Internal pressure equalization system ensures reliable operation
• Accurate tab positioning for precise boat control
• 2.25" actuator stroke length provides ample adjustment range
