The Lectrotab XKASL12X18 is a premium stainless steel trim tab kit designed for boats 20 to 40 feet in length. This complete system includes two 12" x 18" trim tabs, two electric actuators, and Lectrotab's intuitive SLC-11 one-touch LED control for effortless boat leveling and performance optimization.
Superior Stainless Steel Construction:
Built from 12-gauge 304 stainless steel, these trim tabs feature a continuous rolled and pinned hinge design that provides exceptional strength while eliminating potential weld failure points. This robust construction ensures long-lasting reliability in harsh marine environments.
Advanced Electric Actuator System:
Unlike hydraulic trim tabs, the Lectrotab system uses precision-engineered electric actuators that are completely maintenance-free with no oil to leak. Each actuator is fully load-tested to push 1000 lbs of force and features a non-metallic, permanently sealed housing that will never corrode. The upper ram seal location is protected from damage due to fouled rams or barnacle growth, while an internal pressure equalization system ensures consistent performance. An integrated brake system prevents unwanted tab movement when underway or backing down.
Key Features:
- Continuous rolled and pinned hinge eliminates welding for superior strength
- Non-hydraulic design means no oil leaks or hydraulic maintenance
- Quiet operation with precise tab positioning
- Non-metallic actuator housing resists corrosion and UV deterioration
- Internal brake system prevents tab drift
