Actuators
Actuator kit for Vector Fins™ VF650/VFS800
-
S-LINK™
S-Link™ is a CAN-based control system used for communication between Sleipner products installed on a vessel.
- Compact and waterproof plugs
- Keyed and color-coded connectors to ensure correct and easy installation
- Different cable lengths, extenders and T-connectors makes the system scalable and flexible to install
-
ANY SPEED
Vector Fins™ is the only top-performing stabilizer system for both cruising and at anchor use. The fins’ concave shape creates multilateral force direction improving the stationary positioning of a vessel while at anchor. The uniqueness of the design also becomes evident while underway as it improves in effectiveness as speed increases. Sea trials have proven that Vector Fins™ are up to 50% more efficient at anchor and capable of reducing the uncomfortable rolling motions of the vessel by up to 95% while cruising.

360° INSTALLATION
Designed to fit in small and challenging installation areas, the Vector Fins™ unique cone shaft design allows you to utilize the space onboard to install the actuators in any direction and insert the fins into the position you require.
Item code: SPS55B
The SPS55 actuators for Vector fins™ are incredibly compact and silent, designed to fit in small available spaces in modern boats below 70 feet/ 20 meters.
The actuators are produced to be reliable and hassle-free, ensuring quiet operation that satisfies an owner-operated vessel's needs.
The most compact fin stabilizer actuator ever
Technical design benefits
- The squared base plate provides a large load distribution area to the hull while installing in tight spaces between stringers and bulkheads.
- Dual, balanced cylinders provide symmetrical load and force.
- The actuator can be installed in any direction in the boat; the fin angle is independent of the actuator's direction.
- No moving hoses at all secures leakages and potential wear and simplifies the installation process.
- Oversized bearings for lifetime operation with only a minimal level of maintenance.
- Rack and pinion drive connection for quiet, reliable, long-life operation, with easy service when needed after thousands of operational hours.
- The Vector fins are quickly and easily installed and removed from the outside for best convenience, such as transport or other haul-out situations.
- Defined shaft-shear point in case of the fins accidentally hitting something.
- All wet parts in stainless steel.

A legacy that commits
We’ve lived and worked with the unruly sea for a hundred years. That’s why we develop important features that enables a boat to handle the sea better – that enable you to enjoy your boat, at anchor and at full speed. That is why you wanted a boat, isn’t it?

Beautiful engineering
The technology in our solutions is world-class. We know, because we’ve developed it ourselves, just as we manufacture every solution, and follow them until their fixed to a hull, ourselves. This meticulous attention to detail is why your day out always will be better with a Sleipner aboard.
