Garmin B175M Bronze 0° Thru-Hull Transducer - 1kW, 8-Pin
Garmin B175M Bronze 0° Thru-Hull Transducer - 1kW, 8-Pin — Product description
Upgrade your boat's sonar capabilities with a transducer designed for serious anglers and offshore explorers who demand crystal-clear underwater images at impressive depths. This thru-hull model stands out for its rugged bronze construction, ultra-low profile that hugs the hull without snagging on trailer bunks, and powerful performance tailored to medium-frequency scanning. Whether you're chasing wrecks in deeper waters or mapping structure for trophy fish, it delivers reliable depth readings and temperature data to keep you ahead of the game.
Crafted for boats with gentle deadrise angles, this unit eliminates the hassle of fairing blocks thanks to its innovative tilted element design. It's a go-to choice for fiberglass and wooden hulls, blending seamlessly into your vessel while punching through saltwater with ease. Experience sharper fish arches, detailed bottom contours, and enhanced target separation that turns good trips into legendary ones.
Standout Features for Real-World Boating
- Flush-Mount Bronze Housing: Protrudes less than 1/4 inch beyond the hull, making it trailering-friendly and resistant to damage from rollers or bunks.
- Tilted Element Technology: Built-in 0-degree tilt perfectly matches hulls from 0 to 7 degrees deadrise—no extra fairing needed for optimal beam projection straight down.
- Medium CHIRP Versatility: Scans across 85-135 kHz, balancing wide coverage for searching with focused resolution for pinpointing targets.
- Deep-Water Prowess: Rated for maximum depths up to 3,000 feet, ideal for bluewater adventures where shallow-water units fall short.
- Integrated Sensors: Combines precise depth and water temperature readings in one robust package.
- Extended Reach: 39-foot cable gives you flexibility during installation without signal boosters.
Technical Specifications at a Glance
| Frequency (kHz) | Power | Beam Width (° LF/HF -3dB) | Max Depth (ft) | Sensors | Pins | Deadrise Angles |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 85-135 | 1 kW | 11-16 | 3,000 | Depth, Temp | 8 | 0-7° |
These specs make it a powerhouse for mid-to-deep water applications, with a 2-inch shaft and straightforward thru-hull setup.
Effortless Installation and Long-Term Reliability
Setting up this transducer is straightforward for DIY boaters or pros alike. Drill a clean hole matching the 2-inch shaft, bed it in with marine sealant, and secure the locking collar—detailed instructions included ensure a watertight seal every time. The bronze material thrives in saltwater, resisting corrosion better than plastic alternatives, while the low-profile design keeps drag minimal for better fuel efficiency.
Pro tip: Position it forward of the prop and away from strakes for the cleanest sonar returns. Regular hull cleaning around the face prevents marine growth from muddying your reads, extending its lifespan on the water.
Performance That Elevates Your Fishing Game
In practical use, the medium CHIRP range shines by revealing subtle ledges, bait balls, and bottom hardness variations that help you dial in lure presentation. Anglers report superior separation in 500-1,500 foot zones, where game fish like tuna or snapper school. Pair it with modern chartplotters for SideVü or ClearVü compatibility, and you'll uncover fish-holding spots others miss.
Bronze construction adds durability for rough seas, and the temp sensor tracks thermoclines for strategic trolling patterns. It's not just gear—it's the edge that fills livewells faster.
