Airmar B175HW Bronze Thru Hull 12° Tilt - 1kW CHIRP transducer is built for fiberglass or wood hulls on boats 8 m (25’) and larger, delivering broader, crisper sonar imaging. This 1kW CHIRP transducer uses a 12° tilt to maximize coverage under the vessel and works with CHIRP-ready sounders via the Mix and Match Cable (sold separately).

The B175HW delivers broader, crisper imagery that helps you see more of the bottom, structure, and targets. The 25° constant beam provides consistent imaging across the 150–250 kHz CHIRP range, simplifying interpretation. The 12° tilt concentrates energy directly beneath the boat for improved bottom tracking and depth accuracy, even in complex underwater terrain. Bronze construction offers durability in harsh marine environments, while the depth and fast-response water-temperature sensor adds valuable environmental context for fishing and navigation. Xducer ID technology helps ensure reliable compatibility with CHIRP sounders, and the Mix and Match Cable enables a tailored installation with CHIRP-ready systems.
