Lectrotab XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit w/Rocker Switch - 12 x 12 - XKAF12X12A - CW96300

Lectrotab XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit w/Rocker Switch - 12 x 12 - XKAF12X12A - CW96300

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 new flat rocker switch has improved sealing to prevent water entry and recessed rocker to prevent breaking. Specially designed to provide and "instant stop" circuit when the switches are released, thus preventing actuator over-run.
