Furuno 1kW 20° Tilted Element Transducer Product Description
Unlock Superior Underwater Performance with the Furuno 526TID-LTD/20
Imagine gliding through choppy waters on your tournament sport fishing boat, confident that your sonar is painting a crystal-clear picture of the depths below. The Furuno 526TID-LTD/20, featuring Airmar's renowned B164 tilted element design, delivers exactly that. This 1kW powerhouse combines dual-frequency precision at 50/200 kHz with a built-in temperature sensor, all housed in a low-profile bronze thru-hull mount. What sets it apart? The innovative 20° tilted ceramic element inside the housing automatically compensates for your hull's deadrise—perfect for angles between 16° and 24°—without needing a bulky fairing.
Crafted for serious anglers who trailer their vessels frequently, this transducer protrudes just 0.25 inches (6.35 mm) from the hull. Rest easy knowing it withstands trailer rollers and bunks without a scratch, making it a game-changer for high-speed, trailered boats chasing big game offshore.
Why Choose the B164 20° Tilted Element Transducer?
- Maximum Power, Minimal Profile: Rated at 1kW RMS, it punches through water column noise for deeper, sharper returns on structure and fish arches.
- Dual-Frequency Versatility: Switch seamlessly between 50 kHz for wide-area offshore scanning (20° beam) and 200 kHz for pinpoint inshore detail (6° beam).
- Integrated Temperature Sensing: Monitor water conditions in real-time to track baitfish migrations and thermoclines.
- Bronze Durability: Corrosion-resistant housing thrives in saltwater environments, backed by a 3.75-foot shaft for flexible installation.
- Flush-Mount Simplicity: Includes a 30-foot cable with 10-pin connector for straightforward integration with compatible fishfinders.
Anglers report consistently stronger bottom tracking and fewer false readings compared to standard thru-hulls, thanks to the tilted element's forward-facing energy focus—keeping your beam perpendicular to the sea floor even on planing hulls.
Effortless Installation for Peak Performance
Installing the 526TID-LTD/20 is straightforward for DIY-savvy boat owners. Select a hull location forward of the prop and stable in rough seas. Drill your thru-hull hole, thread the 3.75-foot shaft, and secure the low-profile bronze housing. The key? Orient the top arrow toward your keel—whether port or starboard side—for optimal element tilt. No fairing required, saving time and reducing drag.
Pro Tip: Pair it with high-output sounders to maximize its 1kW potential. In testing on V-hull bass boats and offshore centers, users note immediate improvements in target separation at speeds over 30 knots.
Real-World Advantages for Tournament Pros
For trailered tournament rigs, this transducer shines by eliminating fairing vulnerabilities. Its flush design minimizes hydrodynamic interference, preserving your boat's speed and fuel efficiency. Expect enhanced resolution on wrecks, ledges, and schools—vital for spotting trophy stripers or pelagics before competitors.
Beyond fishing, cruisers appreciate the reliable depth and temp data for safe navigation in unfamiliar waters. The B164's bronze construction ensures longevity, often outlasting lesser models in harsh marine conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions
What hull deadrise angles work best with the Furuno 526TID-LTD/20?
It's optimized for deadrise angles from 16° to 24°, where the 20° tilted element ensures a vertical beam directly beneath your boat.
Does this transducer require a fairing block?
No, the tilted element design eliminates the need for a fairing, making it ideal for trailered boats with low clearance.
How does the tilted element improve sonar readings?
By angling the ceramic inside the housing, it directs maximum energy straight down, compensating for hull angle and reducing off-axis noise for clearer images.
Is the bronze housing suitable for saltwater use?
Yes, the corrosion-resistant bronze thrives in marine environments, providing long-term reliability for offshore adventures.
What cable and connector does it include?
It comes with a 30-foot cable featuring a 10-pin connector for easy hookup to Furuno sounders.
Can I use this on a high-speed planing hull?
Absolutely—its low-profile design and powerful 1kW output maintain performance at speeds over 30 knots.
Does it measure water temperature?
Yes, the integrated temp sensor provides accurate surface water readings alongside depth data.
