It helps a boat get on plane faster and stay planed at intermediate speeds by countering the bow rise that creates hull drag and cuts fuel efficiency. Bennett trim tabs get the boat on plane quickly, reducing hull drag and fuel use, and can also be used to correct uneven loads caused by passengers, gear, or fuel distribution.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach trim tab plane measures 12 inches wide by 12 inches deep and is sheared and bent from stainless steel rather than welded, since welding alters the properties of stainless steel and invites corrosion. The kit includes two Bennett Hydraulic Actuators, strong flexible nylon\/fiberglass hydraulic cylinders that push the tabs into position, plus a V351HPU1 Hydraulic Power Unit with wiring and a Euro-Style Rocker Switch control. All hydraulic lines and wires run internally, concealed by the upper hinge, so they are not exposed to harsh marine environments. Installation instructions and a hardware bag are included, and the system is backed by a manufacturer limited lifetime warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis trim tab kit is recommended for flats boats, center consoles, trailered boats, cuddy cabins, dual consoles, deck boats, bowriders, bass boats, walkarounds, runabouts and ribs, and cruisers.\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 6BT500005700\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTrim Tab Width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTrim Tab Depth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eControl Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Euro-Style Rocker Switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHydraulic Actuators:\u003c\/strong\u003e (2) A1101A Hydraulic Trim Tab Actuators\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHydraulic Power Unit:\u003c\/strong\u003e V351HPU1 with Wiring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHydraulic Tubing Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 27 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25 x 15 x 5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 666285121603\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Boat Types:\u003c\/strong\u003e Flats boats, center consoles, trailered boats, cuddy cabins, dual consoles, deck boats, bowriders, bass boats, walkarounds, runabouts and ribs, cruisers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e Manufacturer Limited Lifetime Warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size are the trim tab planes in this kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The trim tab planes in the Bennett Marine 6BT500005700 kit measure 12 inches wide by 12 inches deep.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat comes included with this hydraulic trim tab kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The kit includes two stainless steel trim tabs, two A1101A hydraulic trim tab actuators, one V351HPU1 hydraulic power unit with wiring, one Euro-Style Rocker Switch control, a hardware bag, 20 feet of hydraulic tubing, and installation instructions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre the trim tabs welded or formed from a single sheet?\u003c\/strong\u003e The stainless steel trim tabs in this Bennett Marine kit are sheared and bent rather than welded, since welding alters the properties of stainless steel and can invite corrosion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat type of control switch operates this trim tab system?\u003c\/strong\u003e This kit uses a Euro-Style Rocker Switch control, which is a simpler stand-alone toggle-style switch rather than Bennett's All-in-One Indicator Control.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow are the hydraulic lines and wiring protected on this system?\u003c\/strong\u003e On the 6BT500005700 trim tab kit, all hydraulic lines and wires run internally and are concealed by the upper hinge, keeping them out of harsh marine environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat boat types is this Bennett Marine trim tab kit recommended for?\u003c\/strong\u003e This kit is recommended for flats boats, center consoles, trailered boats, cuddy cabins, dual consoles, deck boats, bowriders, bass boats, walkarounds, runabouts and ribs, and cruisers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo trim tabs actually improve fuel economy?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes.
