Bennett A1200S Actuator Assembly

The Bennett A1200S Actuator Assembly is a hydraulic cylinder designed for marine trim tab systems, delivering reliable boat attitude control for anglers, cruisers, and performance boaters who demand smooth operation in variable water conditions. After years on the water, any experienced angler knows that trim tabs are essential for maintaining proper hull attitude, reducing bow rise, and improving fuel efficiency across a range of speeds and sea states. The A1200S replaces worn or damaged actuators in Bennett Marine trim tab installations, restoring full functionality and responsive control.

This actuator assembly features strong, flexible nylon and fiberglass construction that resists corrosion and fatigue in saltwater environments—critical durability factors for offshore and coastal operations. The piston-like arms push trim tab blades into precise positions, while hydraulic fluid flows through a concealed passage in the upper hinge, eliminating exposed external hoses that are vulnerable to impact damage from docking, rough seas, or debris. This sealed design keeps the hydraulic circuit protected and extends service life, reducing maintenance downtime during peak fishing season.

The Bennett A1200S is ideal for boat owners maintaining or upgrading Bennett trim tab systems, particularly those operating in demanding saltwater or high-performance environments where actuator reliability directly impacts hull handling and fuel economy. Installation requires proper alignment with existing Bennett Marine hydraulic pump and control systems; compatibility should be verified with your vessel's trim tab model before ordering. Weighing just 1 pound and measuring 14 x 5 x 14 inches, the actuator integrates seamlessly into most Bennett installations without requiring hull modifications or extensive rewiring.
