Lectrotab XKA Stainless Steel Trim Tab Kit w/ALC-1 Control - 9 x 18

The Lectrotab XKA Stainless Steel Trim Tab Kit w/ALC-1 Control in the 9 x 18 size is purpose-built for boaters and marine enthusiasts who demand precise hull attitude control and improved handling in variable water conditions. Trim tabs function as active hydrofoils that adjust your vessel's running angle, allowing you to correct bow rise, reduce porpoising, and optimize trim at any throttle setting. This system transforms how your boat responds to load distribution, sea state, and acceleration—delivering the kind of fine-tuned control that separates casual operators from serious mariners who understand that running trim affects both performance and fuel efficiency.

The XKA kit features marine-grade stainless steel construction throughout, ensuring corrosion resistance in saltwater and freshwater environments where galvanic degradation would compromise lesser materials. The integrated ALC-1 automatic level control system eliminates manual adjustment by continuously monitoring hull attitude and deploying the tabs in real time—similar to how an active suspension system works on high-performance vehicles. At 9 inches wide and 18 inches long, this trim tab size suits mid-range displacement hulls and outboard-powered boats where balanced lift distribution and structural compatibility are critical. The 22.15 lb weight reflects heavy-duty construction designed to withstand dynamic loading forces and extended duty cycles without flex or fatigue.

This trim tab kit is ideal for center console fishing boats, offshore cruisers, and performance hull designs where operators experience rough seas and variable loading throughout the day. The ALC-1 control module integrates easily with existing helm systems and requires professional marine installation to ensure proper transom reinforcement, electrical integration, and hydraulic or electric actuation setup. Compatibility depends on transom construction, hull material, and existing trim system components—consultation with a qualified marine technician is recommended before purchase to confirm fit for your specific vessel.
