The Lectrotab XKA 12x18 Stainless Steel Trim Tab Kit with ALC-1 Automatic Leveling Control delivers professional-grade boat trim control with intelligent automation. Designed for boats 20 to 40 feet, this complete kit features heavy-duty stainless steel tabs, precision electric actuators, and advanced automatic leveling technology that continuously adjusts trim for optimal performance and comfort.
Automatic Leveling Control (ALC-1):
The included ALC-1 controller automatically adjusts your trim tabs to maintain a level boat attitude in real-time. The system corrects both side-to-side roll and fore-to-aft pitch, compensating for changing loads, sea conditions, and weight distribution. This automation enhances safety, improves fuel economy, and delivers a more comfortable ride without constant manual adjustment.
Superior Stainless Steel Construction:
Each 12-gauge 304 stainless steel tab is fabricated with a continuous rolled and pinned hinge design that provides exceptional strength while eliminating weld points that can fail or corrode. This construction method ensures long-term durability in harsh marine environments.
Maintenance-Free Electric Actuators:
- Non-hydraulic design with no oil to leak or maintain
- Fully sealed non-metallic housing protects all internal components
- Upper ram seal location prevents damage from fouling or barnacle growth
- Internal brake system prevents unwanted tab movement while underway or backing down
- Internal pressure equalization system enhances reliability
- Quiet operation with precision positioning
- Load tested to 1,000 lbs of force
- 2.25-inch stroke length provides optimal trim authority
- 23-foot cable length accommodates various boat configurations
