Garmin B175M Bronze 12° Thru-Hull Transducer - 1kW, 8-Pin
Garmin B175M Bronze 12° Thru-Hull Transducer - 1kW, 8-Pin — Product description
Garmin B175M Bronze 12° Thru-Hull Transducer - Professional 1kW Marine Sonar System
Professional Marine Transducer - Premium Bronze Construction with Tilted Element Technology
Experience superior depth and temperature sensing with the Garmin B175M bronze thru-hull transducer, featuring Airmar's advanced 12-degree tilted element technology. This professional-grade 1kW transducer delivers exceptional sonar performance down to 3,000 feet while accommodating hull deadrises from 8-15 degrees without requiring fairing blocks, making it the ideal choice for serious marine applications.
Advanced Tilted Element Technology
The B175M incorporates Airmar's innovative tilted element design, where the ceramic transducer element is precisely angled at 12 degrees within the housing. This engineering breakthrough automatically compensates for hull deadrise angles, ensuring optimal sonar beam orientation regardless of your vessel's hull configuration. The result is superior bottom tracking and fish detection without the complexity of traditional fairing blocks.

Hull Compatibility & Installation
Engineered specifically for vessels with hull deadrise angles between 8-15 degrees, this transducer eliminates the need for custom fairing blocks while ensuring optimal sonar performance. The bronze construction makes it ideal for both fiberglass and wood hulls, providing long-lasting durability in marine environments.
CHIRP-Ready Performance
The B175M is designed as a CHIRP-ready transducer, operating in the medium frequency range of 85-135 kHz. This frequency range provides excellent balance between penetration depth and target resolution, making it perfect for both shallow water fishing and deep water applications up to 3,000 feet.
Professional Installation Features
- No Fairing Block Required: 12-degree tilted element accommodates hull deadrise automatically
- Minimal Protrusion: Less than 1/4" outside hull reduces drag and vulnerability
- 2-Inch Shaft: Standard hull penetration size for most installations
- Installation Hardware Included: Complete mounting system with instructions
- Temperature Sensor: Integrated for accurate water temperature readings
Garmin System Integration
Seamlessly integrates with Garmin chartplotters and fishfinders featuring 8-pin transducer connectivity. The 1kW power handling ensures optimal performance with compatible Garmin electronics, delivering crystal-clear bottom definition and superior fish detection capabilities.
Professional Marine Applications
Ideal for commercial fishing vessels, sport fishing boats, and serious recreational craft requiring reliable depth and temperature sensing in depths up to 3,000 feet. The bronze construction and professional-grade components ensure dependable performance in demanding marine conditions.
