Lenco 101 Standard Replacement Trim Tab Actuator, OEM 20400-001, 750 lb Push, 12V
The Lenco 15054-001 101 Standard Replacement Trim Tab Actuator is a fully submersible, maintenance-free electric actuator built to drive trim tab movement so a boat's running attitude, stability, and ride quality can be adjusted on the water. It replaces the actuator on compatible standard Lenco trim tab systems and is engineered to deliver 750 lbs (340.18 kg) of push force from a 12V high-torque motor, roughly twice the force of a comparable hydraulic actuator. A self-locking stainless steel ball screw riding on 12 bearings holds tab position precisely without drift, so no separate limit switches or clutches are needed. Construction pairs a high-impact, UV-resistant Nylon 66 housing with a stainless steel ram and a corrosion-proof Vandar top cap, and the assembly seals for life so it operates underwater in both saltwater and freshwater without lubrication or upkeep. Waterproof Deutsch connectors give a watertight, plug-and-play electrical connection, and precision-molded, powdered-metal, high-alloy gears are built for long-term wear resistance and accuracy. The actuator has a 2-1/4 inch stroke length, a 12-1/8 inch overall tip-to-tip length, a 6 foot wire, and 5/16 inch top cap and end holes, with all necessary mounting hardware included for installation. It is backed by a 5-year limited warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.

Review your current trim tab setup and part numbers to confirm compatibility before ordering.
How much push force does this actuator produce? This actuator delivers 750 lbs (340.18 kg) of push force from its 12V high-torque motor, about twice the force of a typical hydraulic trim tab actuator.
What is the OEM cross-reference number for the Lenco 15054-001 actuator? The Lenco 15054-001 101 Standard Replacement Trim Tab Actuator corresponds to OEM part number 20400-001.
Is this actuator suitable for both saltwater and freshwater use? Yes. The 15054-001 actuator features a corrosion-proof, watertight Vandar top cap, stainless steel components, and a high-impact, UV-resistant Nylon 66 housing, making it well suited to both saltwater and freshwater conditions.
What are the stroke length and overall dimensions of this actuator? The Lenco 101 Standard Replacement Trim Tab Actuator has a 2-1/4 inch stroke length and a 12-1/8 inch overall tip-to-tip length, with a 6 foot wire and 5/16 inch top cap and end holes.
Does this replacement actuator include mounting hardware? Yes. All necessary mounting hardware is included with the Lenco 15054-001 actuator for a straightforward installation.
What materials is the Lenco 101 actuator made from, and is it corrosion-resistant? The actuator features a high-impact, UV-resistant Nylon 66 housing, a corrosion-proof Vandar top cap, and a stainless steel ram, making it highly durable and resistant to marine environmental wear.
Does the 15054-001 actuator have a built-in position sensor? No, the Lenco 101 Standard Replacement Trim Tab Actuator does not have a built-in position sensor. Instead, a self-locking stainless steel ball screw locks the tab into position and prevents drift, giving precise control without needing a sensor.
How do I know if my current trim tab actuator needs to be replaced? Signs that a trim tab actuator needs replacement include difficulty adjusting trim, persistent listing, slow or unresponsive tab movement, erratic behavior, grinding or humming noises without movement, and visible corrosion or fluid leaks. If checking electrical connections and mounting brackets does not resolve the issue, a replacement actuator like the Lenco 15054-001 restores proper trim performance.
Is this actuator covered under warranty? Yes, the Lenco 15054-001 actuator is backed by a 5-year limited warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship under normal usage and maintenance conditions.
What connector type does the 15054-001 actuator use for wiring? The Lenco 101 Standard Replacement Trim Tab Actuator uses waterproof, plug-and-play Deutsch connectors that provide a watertight seal and simplify installation.
