Lectrotab 12x12 Trim Tab Kit with LED Auto Retract is a rugged, maintenance‑free solution engineered for performance-minded boaters who demand precise control, reliability, and long‑term durability in challenging marine conditions. This 12 in x 12 in stainless trim tab package enhances stability, reduces porpoising, and improves planing efficiency with a smart LED auto retract system that tucks the tabs away when not needed.
- Corrosion‑resistant construction: 12 gauge, 304 stainless steel trim tabs designed to stand up to salt spray, abrasion, and sun without losing strength or finish.
- Continuous rolled and pinned hinge: Built for added strength and longevity by eliminating welds that can weaken over time, delivering smooth operation season after season.
- Non‑hydraulic, maintenance‑free actuators: Precision engineered for quiet, reliable performance without hydraulic oil, reducing maintenance and potential leaks.
- Dual actuator mounting: Flexible installation options to fit a variety of hull configurations and mounting preferences.
- LED Auto Retract control: An oval LED controller switch provides intuitive start/stop control for very accurate tab positioning, with automatic retraction to reduce drag when not in use.
- Waterproof integrity: Patented ram seal resists barnacle fouling, and an internal pressurization system enhances watertight performance in harsh environments.
- Quiet, efficient operation: A precision planetary gearbox delivers smooth actuation with minimal noise and energy use.
What you get with the XKAS12X12 Trim Tab Kit includes two 12‑volt or 24‑volt standard actuators, two 12" x 12" stainless steel trim tab plates, and one oval LED controller switch. Carriage bolts and nuts are provided for secure actuator mounting to the tab, and the kit is ready for straightforward installation on compatible hulls. Note: powder‑coated and upturned plate options are available at additional cost.
Why this kit stands out for serious saltwater and sport‑fishing boats: the all‑stainless design, continuous hinge, and non‑hydraulic, maintenance‑free actuators mean fewer maintenance headaches and more time on the water. The integrated LED control provides precise, immediate tab feedback and effortless positioning, while the robust upper bracket and dual actuator mount maximize installation flexibility for a variety of layouts.
Ideal for skippers who want dependable trim control in rough seas, drafts, or following seas, and who value long‑term corrosion resistance and reduced downtime. This kit is a strong upgrade for boats that demand consistent trim performance, even under heavy loads or when facing tight wake conditions.
How it compares to traditional systems: unlike hydraulic systems, this Lectrotab kit uses a non‑hydraulic design that requires less maintenance, avoids oil leaks, and provides quiet, predictable actuation. The 12 gauge stainless steel construction and rolled hinge offer superior durability, while the patented seals and pressurization system enhance seaworthiness and reliability in marine environments.
