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

The XKA Stainless Steel Trim Tab Kit with MLC-1 Control - 9"x9" is designed for boaters who demand superior performance and durability. This high-quality trim tab kit enhances your vessel's handling and stability, ensuring a smooth and efficient ride in all marine conditions.

Unmatched Strength and Reliability

Constructed from 12 gauge, 304 stainless steel, the Lectrotab trim tabs offer exceptional strength and longevity. The continuous rolled and pinned hinge design eliminates the need for welding, providing a robust and reliable connection that withstands the harsh marine environment.

Precision-Engineered Actuators

The kit includes precision-engineered actuators that deliver quiet operation and a maintenance-free, non-hydraulic design. These corrosion-resistant actuators ensure accurate tab positioning and provide maximum lift force, enhancing your boat's performance without the risk of oil leaks associated with hydraulic systems.

Advanced Control with MLC-1

The Lectrotab MLC-1 is a microprocessor-based trim tab controller that allows you to move both tabs simultaneously with the touch of a single button. It features LED tab position indicators that automatically dim in darkness and brighten in sunlight, providing clear visibility under all lighting conditions.
