XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit with MLC-1 Control – 12 x 18 

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. 

The Lectrotab MLC-1 is a microprocessor based trim tab control that can move both tabs simultaneously at the touch of a single button.  It includes LED tab position indicators which will automatically dim in darkness and brighten in sunlight.
