The Story
The XKA Aluminum Alloy Trim Tab Kit with ALC-1 Control is expertly engineered for aluminum-hulled boats, offering an economical and durable solution to enhance your boating experience. This kit combines robust aluminum trim tabs with a precision-engineered actuator system, ensuring silent operation, accurate tab positioning, and maintenance-free performance without the hassles of hydraulic systems.
Superior Construction for Optimal Performance
Crafted from marine-grade 6005-T5 aluminum alloy, the trim tabs are designed to withstand the harsh marine environment. Each tab is sealed with a corrosion-resistant epoxy coating, providing longevity and reliability. The "no-break" polypropylene hinges have been rigorously tested over 300,000 cycles to a 90° bend, ensuring exceptional durability and consistent performance.
Advanced Actuator System
The electro-mechanical actuators in this kit deliver up to 1000 lbs of force, facilitating precise and powerful adjustments of the trim tabs. Housed in a non-metallic, permanently sealed enclosure, the actuators are protected from corrosion and environmental damage. With a stroke length of 2.25 inches and a cable length of 23 feet, these actuators offer flexible installation options without the need for any components inside your boat.
Automatic Leveling Control (ALC-1)
The ALC-1 automatically adjusts the trim tabs to maintain a level boat, enhancing comfort and ride quality. It continuously compensates for roll and pitch, ensuring stability and improving fuel efficiency. This intelligent control system eliminates the risk of hydraulic leaks, providing a cleaner and safer boating experience.
Key Features
- Corrosion-resistant epoxy-coated aluminum trim tabs
- Equivalent strength to 10 gauge stainless steel
- "No Break" polypropylene hinge tested for over 300,000 cycles
- Protected upper ram seal from fouling and barnacle growth
- Internal pressure equalization system for reliable operation
- Integrated brake system prevents unwanted tab movement
- Quiet, maintenance-free operation
- Actuators capable of pushing 1000 lbs of force
- Non-metallic external structure resists corrosion and UV damage
