Lectrotab XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit w/One-Touch Control - 12 x 24 - XKASL12X24A - CW96311

Lectrotab XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit w/One-Touch Control - 12 x 24 - XKASL12X24A - CW96311

The Lectrotab Aluminum Alloy trim tabs are uniquely designed to meet the needs of Aluminum hulled boats and are an economical option for all boats. All Aluminum Alloy tabs are fabricated with an extremely strong "no-break" polypropylene hinge. All Aluminum tabs are sealed with a corrosion resistant epoxy coating.

Combined with a precision-engineered actuator, this kit is built to combine quiet operation with a non-hydraulic, maintenance free design. The unit is corrosion free, ensures very accurate tab positioning, provides maximum lift force, and is totally self-contained for easy installation. The actuator assembly is packaged in a non-metallic permanently sealed housing. No components need to be installed inside the boat.

Most importantly, unlike hydraulic trim tabs, there is no oil to leak out. The actuator incorporates either a standard or low profile transom mounting bracket.

Lectrotab's one-touch leveling LED control puts the complete control of your trim tabs at your fingertips.

• Rinse After Use:

  • After each use, especially in saltwater, rinse the trim tabs thoroughly with fresh water to remove salt, dirt, and debris. This helps prevent corrosion and extends the lifespan of the trim tab components.

• Inspect for Wear and Damage:

  • Regularly inspect the trim tabs, actuators, One-Touch Control, mounting hardware, and hinges for signs of wear, corrosion, or damage. Replace any worn or damaged parts to ensure continued performance.

• Lubricate Moving Parts:

  • Periodically apply marine-grade lubricant to the trim tab hinges, actuators, and other moving components. This reduces friction, prevents rust, and ensures smooth operation.

• Check Electrical Connections:

  • Inspect the wiring and electrical connections for the One-Touch Control system for signs of corrosion, wear, or loose connections. Ensure all electrical components are securely sealed to prevent water damage.

• Test Trim Tab Functionality:

  • Test the trim tabs with the One-Touch Control before each use to ensure they are operating correctly and adjusting smoothly. Address any resistance or malfunctions immediately.

• Prevent Electrolysis:

  • Install and regularly check a sacrificial anode to protect the aluminum trim tabs from electrolysis damage, particularly when operating in saltwater. Replace the anode when it becomes significantly corroded.

• Annual Maintenance:

  • Perform a comprehensive inspection of the trim tab system once a year, checking actuators, seals, wiring, and moving parts. Clean all components, replace worn parts, and ensure the system is fully operational.
