Trim tabs help balance boat loads, get the boat on plane faster, and improve fuel efficiency and ride quality by adjusting the running angle of the hull. This kit is designed for flatboats, center consoles, dual consoles, deck boats, bowriders, bass boats, and runabouts, and is recommended for trailered boats from 17 to 28 feet using a single actuator per tab.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Edge Mount configuration uses an adjustable upper hinge specifically engineered for transoms with limited vertical clearance, requiring less than 6.5 inches of vertical transom space to install. The tabs turn up for added strength and use piano-hinged backing plates. Each kit includes two BEA2000 12-volt trim tab actuators built with a robust, water-tight black nylon housing that resists the water intrusion and marine growth failures common in older trim tab designs. The main seal is positioned high on the actuator to further protect against marine growth and water intrusion, and the wiring is routed through the upper hinge so no wires are exposed to the marine environment. Installation is fast because the actuator does not need to be disassembled during the process.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrim tab sizing on this kit follows the span by chord format: span is the side-to-side measurement and chord is the fore-to-aft measurement, giving this kit its 12 inch by 12 inch dimensions. The kit is backed by a 5 year manufacturer's warranty. A trim tab switch is required for operation but is sold separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bennett
