Lenco 9" x 12" Standard Trim Tab Kit with LED Indicator Switch (RT9X12I)

The Lenco RT9X12I is a comprehensive Standard Performance Trim Tab Kit designed to improve the running attitude, fuel efficiency, and stability of mid-sized boats. This "all-in-one" kit features 9" x 12" electro-polished stainless steel planes and Lenco’s premium LED Indicator Switch, which provides real-time visual feedback of the tab positions from the helm.

Performance & Design

The "Performance" series is distinguished by its electro-polished blades, which not only provide a high-end mirror finish but also offer superior protection against marine growth and corrosion. The blades feature a 1" turned-up edge and a 5-degree taper on the inside to increase lift and structural rigidity without adding unnecessary drag.

Key Features

• LED Indicator Switch Kit: Includes a tactile, waterproof keypad with two high-intensity LED displays. It features a photo eye that automatically dims the lights at night and a built-in retractor that pulls the tabs up when the ignition is turned off.

• Instant Response Electric Actuators: Lenco’s ballscrew design is significantly faster than hydraulic systems, allowing for precise, immediate adjustments in rough seas.

• Maintenance-Free: The actuators are fully submersible, oil-free, and sealed for life, eliminating the mess and reliability issues associated with hydraulic pumps.

• Electro-Polished 304 Stainless: 12-gauge stainless steel construction ensures the system can handle the stresses of aggressive boating in saltwater.

Installation Pro-Tip:

When mounting the planes, ensure they are at least 2 inches in from the chine (the side of the boat) and at least 8 to 12 inches away from the propeller to avoid air cavitation. Before drilling into your transom, use a piece of tape on your drill bit as a depth gauge to ensure you don't drill deeper than necessary into the core.
