West Coast Sales is pleased to announce that they will now be representing Lectrotab and their high-quality trim tab solutions.

Identifying a niche in the market the Lectrotab product was created using innovative design, quality research, and precise engineering including patents. They manufacture advanced trim tab systems that feature:

• 12 gauge stainless steel with an integrally formed 12 gauge rolled and pinned hinge to strengthen the tab and eliminate spot welds
• Dynamic motor braking for instant ram stop and accurate positioning
• Actuators with no exposed metal parts to eliminate corrosion
• Internal friction brake which prevents tab movement under all conditions
• Patented internal self-pressurization system to eliminate negative pressure
• Patented seal placement to prevent seal damage due to barnacle growth
• Precision planetary gear box for quiet and efficient operation

Since their introduction to the market in 1997, Lectrotab trim tabs, manufactured in Richmond, Virginia, have been distributed worldwide. They are used on all types of boats including pleasure, fishing, commercial, and air boats in a wide range of sizes.

“We are excited to be working with Linear Devices and their Lectrotab product line. They manufacture the types of quality marine products that we are proud to represent.” – Mike Steiner, Managing Partner. West Coast Sales has locations in California and Washington states.
