Upgrade your boat’s performance with the Lenco 12" x 12" Short Ram Trim Tab Kit LED. This complete, marine-grade trim tab system uses precision electric ball screw rams that deliver instant response, reliable lifting power, and an oil-free design that’s cleaner and easier to maintain than traditional hydraulic tabs. Expect a ride that’s smoother, drier, and faster, with enhanced stability and fuel efficiency on the water.

Why this kit stands out

The Lenco advantage isn’t just in the hardware—it's in the smarter, safer operation you feel every time you head out. The LED switch panel isn’t just a control—it’s a fully integrated interface with waterproof tactile switches, built-in tab indicators, and a retract feature that automatically moves the tabs to a fully stowed position when power is off. That means fewer surprises and quicker, safer responses in changing conditions.

• Oil-free electric ram technology: cleaner, maintenance-friendly operation with instant tab deployment.
• Auto retract on power off: tabs automatically return to a safe, flush position when you turn the system off.
• LED indicators on the control panel provide at-a-glance status for quick adjustments on rough water.
• Stainless steel blades and mounting hardware: built to withstand harsh marine environments and prove durable over the long haul.
• Complete kit includes everything you need for installation on boats in the 17–30 ft range, with a proven 12V system.

What’s included

• Two 12" x 12" trim tabs (blade and ram assemblies)
• 12-volt actuators (2) with 6-foot leads and Deutsch connectors
• Stainless steel trim tab blades (2)
• 20' actuator extension harnesses (2) with Deutsch connectors
• Upper mounting bracket with gland seal
• Lower mounting bracket
• All stainless steel mounting hardware
• LED switch panel with integrated control box
• Some models available in standard mount or edge mount (space saver) options

Fit, size, and ideal use

These are designed specifically for boats in the 17 to 30 ft range. The kit’s trim tab size is 12" long by 12" wide at the hinge, with the first number representing tab length and the second the width. This sizing provides effective bow lift and stern control across a wide range of hull designs and sea conditions.

Use cases and practical benefits

• Smoother ride in chop: quickly angle the tabs to reduce porpoising and improve spray control.
• Enhanced safety: stable tracking at high speeds and in crosswinds, with reliable electronic control and auto retract when you don’t want tabs deployed.
• Fuel efficiency: optimized trim minimizes drag, helping you get more miles per gallon.
• Easy integration: a compact control box, waterproof switch, and Deutsch connectors simplify wiring and maintenance.
• Versatile mounting: standard or edge mounting (space saver) options to fit tight transoms and varied hull profiles.

Tips for best results

For optimal trimming, pair these tabs with a baseline plan for weight distribution—fuel, passengers, and gear should be balanced to maximize planing efficiency. Start with small tab angles at cruising speeds and adjust incrementally to achieve the level of lift and stability you prefer. The LED indicators give you immediate feedback on tab status, so you can fine-tune on the fly without fumbling for controls.
