Lectrotab XKA Stainless Steel Trim Tab Kit w/MLC-1 Control - 12 x 9

The XKA Stainless Steel Trim Tab Kit with MLC-1 Control is engineered for boating enthusiasts seeking unparalleled performance and durability. Designed with high-grade stainless steel and advanced electro-mechanical actuators, this trim tab kit ensures your vessel maintains optimal stability and maneuverability in various marine conditions.

Unmatched Durability and Design

The Lectrotab stainless steel trim tabs are crafted for strength and reliability. Utilizing a continuous rolled and pinned hinge, the design eliminates the need for welding, enhancing the overall structural integrity. This robust construction ensures longevity and reduces maintenance, making it an ideal choice for serious boaters.

Advanced Actuation System

Equipped with a precision-engineered actuator, the XKA Trim Tab Kit offers quiet operation combined with a non-hydraulic, maintenance-free design. The actuator assembly is housed in a non-metallic, permanently sealed enclosure, ensuring corrosion resistance and reliability. Key benefits include:

• Accurate tab positioning for maximum lift force
• Self-contained unit for easy installation without internal boat components
• Options for standard or low-profile transom mounting brackets

Unlike hydraulic trim tabs, our system eliminates the risk of oil leaks, providing a cleaner and safer operation.

Intelligent Control with MLC-1

The Lectrotab MLC-1 is a state-of-the-art microprocessor-based trim tab controller. It allows for simultaneous movement of both tabs with a single button press, enhancing ease of use. Additional features include:

• LED tab position indicators that automatically adjust brightness based on ambient lighting
• User-friendly interface for precise trim adjustments

• Continuous rolled and pinned hinge for added strength and no welding required
• Protected upper ram seal from damage due to fouled rams or barnacle growth
• Internal pressure equalization system for optimal performance
• Integrated brake system to prevent unwanted tab movement during operation
• Quiet and efficient operation
• Actuators fully load tested to deliver up to 1000 lbs of force
