The Lectrotab XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit delivers professional-grade boat stabilization with automatic leveling technology. Specifically designed for aluminum-hulled boats but suitable for all vessel types, this complete kit includes 9" x 12" trim tabs with precision electric actuators and the innovative ALC-1 Automatic Leveling Control system.
Automatic Leveling Control:
The ALC-1 system continuously monitors and adjusts your trim tabs to maintain optimal boat attitude without manual input. It automatically corrects side-to-side roll and fore-to-aft pitch, delivering a smoother, more comfortable ride while improving fuel economy. The system works seamlessly in the background, allowing you to focus on navigation and enjoyment.
Advanced Actuator Design:
Unlike hydraulic systems, these electric actuators are completely maintenance-free with no hydraulic fluid to leak or refill. Each actuator is fully load-tested to 1000 lbs of force and features an internal brake system that prevents unwanted tab movement during operation or when backing down. The upper ram seal location is protected from damage caused by fouling or barnacle growth, and an internal pressure equalization system ensures long-term reliability.
Durable Aluminum Construction:
Manufactured from marine-grade 6005-T5 aluminum alloy with strength equivalent to 10-gauge stainless steel, each tab is sealed with corrosion-resistant epoxy coating. The extremely strong polypropylene hinge has been cycle-tested over 300,000 times to 90-degree bends without failure. The non-metallic actuator housing will not corrode and resists deterioration from sun and saltwater exposure.
