The Lectrotab XKA 12x12 Stainless Steel Trim Tab Kit with ALC-1 Automatic Leveling Control delivers professional-grade boat leveling and performance enhancement for vessels 18 to 32 feet. This complete marine trim tab system combines precision-engineered electro-mechanical actuators with an intelligent automatic leveling control for superior boat handling, fuel efficiency, and ride comfort.
Stainless Steel Construction with Advanced Hinge Design:
Each trim tab is fabricated from heavy-duty 12-gauge 304 stainless steel featuring a continuous rolled and pinned hinge that provides exceptional strength while eliminating potential weld failure points. This robust construction ensures long-term durability in the harshest saltwater environments.
Maintenance-Free Electro-Mechanical Actuators:
Unlike hydraulic systems that require fluid maintenance and are prone to leaks, the Lectrotab actuators are completely sealed, self-contained units with no hydraulic oil. The non-metallic permanently sealed housing protects all internal components while an upper ram seal location prevents damage from fouling or barnacle growth. Each actuator is factory load-tested to 1000 lbs of force and features an internal brake system that prevents unwanted tab movement when underway or backing down. The entire system operates quietly and requires no components to be installed inside the boat.
Automatic Leveling Control (ALC-1):
The included ALC-1 automatically adjusts your trim tabs to maintain optimal boat attitude in changing conditions. The system continuously corrects both side-to-side roll and fore-to-aft pitch, delivering a more comfortable ride while improving fuel economy and overall performance.
