Trim tabs mount at the transom and allow the operator to adjust running trim, correcting bow rise, list, and porpoising to improve ride quality, handling, and fuel efficiency at speed. Bennett has manufactured electric trim tab systems since 1960 and the BOLT series was engineered to outperform and outlast older trim tab designs by addressing the water intrusion and part failures common in outdated technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe BOLT1812 kit routes its wiring through the upper hinge of each trim plane so no wiring is exposed to the marine environment, adding protection against corrosion and damage. Each kit uses a water-tight black nylon actuator for trouble-free operation and places the main seal high on the actuator body to guard against marine growth and water intrusion failures, and the design runs quieter than competing systems. Installation is fast because the actuator does not require disassembly during mounting. The stainless steel trim planes and mounting plates are solidly constructed for a long service life, and the electric actuators carry a lifetime warranty. A trim tab control switch is required to operate the system and is sold separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bennett Marine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6BT500134700\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e BOLT1812\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYamaha Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6BT-50013-47-00\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Trim Tab Kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Electric Trim Tabs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTrim Tab Width (Span):\u003c\/strong\u003e 18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTrim Tab Depth (Chord):\u003c\/strong\u003e 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActuator Model:\u003c\/strong\u003e BEA2000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActuator Voltage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12 volt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTrim Plane Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Harness Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20 feet, plus 6 feet wire harness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Boat Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 26 to 36 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25 x 15 x 5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 666285600054\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lifetime warranty on electric actuators\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Bennett BOLT1812 kit is designed for flatboats, center console boats, dual console boats, deck boats, bowriders, bass boats, and runabouts, and is recommended for trailered boats from 26 to 36 feet.
