Lenco Trim Tab Actuator 7 Degree Mounting Shim 50015-002D for 50014-001D and 50015-001D Actuators

The Lenco 50015-002D is a trim tab actuator mounting shim that introduces 7 degrees of tilt into the actuator mounting angle. It is used together with the upper and lower mounting brackets on a Lenco electric trim tab system, allowing the actuator to be angled correctly relative to the transom or mounting surface rather than mounted flat. This shim is compatible with the Lenco 50014-001D and 50015-001D actuator components, making it a straightforward addition when an installation calls for an angled actuator position instead of a standard, unshimmed mount.

Because trim tab actuators must be mounted so the actuator rod travels in line with the trim tab, transom shape and mounting geometry can make a flat mount impractical on some boats. The 50015-002D shim corrects for this by building 7 degrees of angle into the mounting stack, helping keep the actuator aligned and reducing binding or uneven wear that can occur when an actuator is forced to work at an angle it was not designed for. It is a small, purpose-built hardware component intended for use as part of a complete Lenco electric trim tab actuator mounting setup.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Lenco 50015-002D mounting shim do? The Lenco 50015-002D is a trim tab actuator mounting shim that adds 7 degrees of tilt to the actuator mounting angle, used with the upper and lower mounting brackets on a Lenco electric trim tab system.

Which Lenco actuators is the 50015-002D shim compatible with? The 50015-002D shim is compatible with the Lenco 50014-001D and 50015-001D trim tab actuators.

How much tilt does this shim add? It adds 7 degrees of tilt to the mounting position of the trim tab actuator.

Do I need both an upper and lower mounting bracket to use the 50015-002D shim? Yes, the 50015-002D is designed for use with both the upper and lower actuator mounting brackets in a Lenco electric trim tab system.

What trim tab system is the 50015-002D shim used with? It is used with Lenco electric trim tab systems, specifically with the 50014-001D and 50015-001D actuators.

How much does the Lenco 50015-002D shim weigh? The 50015-002D mounting shim weighs 0.12 pounds.

Why would I need an angled mounting shim for a trim tab actuator? An angled shim like the 50015-002D corrects the actuator mounting angle so it aligns properly with the trim tab, which some transom shapes and mounting geometries require instead of a flat mount.

Is the 50015-002D a genuine Lenco part? Yes, the 50015-002D is a genuine Lenco trim tab actuator mounting shim, identified by UPC 874847004916.

What is included with the 50015-002D shim? The 50015-002D is the 7 degree actuator mounting shim itself, intended to be installed with the upper and lower mounting brackets of a compatible Lenco actuator.

Can the 50015-002D shim be used on any trim tab brand? The 50015-002D is designed specifically for compatibility with the Lenco 50014-001D and 50015-001D actuator mounting components.
