Airmar B175C-20-HW-8G Wide Beam CHIRP Transducer Bronze Thru-Hull 1kW Garmin 8-Pin

The Airmar B175C-20-HW-8G is a high-performance bronze thru-hull transducer engineered to deliver exceptional sonar imaging and fish-finding capabilities for Garmin chartplotters and fishfinders. This wide-beam, CHIRP-ready transducer operates across a high-frequency range of 150 to 250 kHz with an impressive 100 kHz of total bandwidth from a single installation, providing superior shallow-water performance, detailed bottom imaging, and excellent fish-target separation.

Key Features:

• Wide-beam CHIRP technology with constant 25° beamwidth across entire frequency range for twice the coverage compared to narrow-beam transducers
• High-frequency band (150-250 kHz) delivers superior resolution and detailed views of the water column
• 20° tilted element design corrects for hull deadrise, ensuring maximum echo returns when installed flush to the hull
• 1 kW power output provides strong signal transmission for depths up to 152 meters (500 feet)
• Integrated fast-response water temperature sensor for accurate environmental monitoring
• Durable bronze housing designed for fiberglass and wood hulls (suitable for vessels 25 feet and above)
• Garmin-specific 8-pin connector with Xducer ID technology for plug-and-play compatibility
• Creates crisp, clear fish arches and larger return images on display compared to narrow-beam alternatives

The tilted element design allows the transducer to be installed almost flush with the hull while the 20° tilt angle orients the ceramic element horizontally, compensating for hull deadrise and maximizing sonar performance. Ideal for both inshore and pelagic fishing applications where resolution and maximum bottom coverage are essential. The B175HW series represents Airmar's advanced wide-beam CHIRP technology, offering professional-grade performance for serious anglers and charter captains.
