<h3>Airmar Technology Corporation: Leaders in Marine Sensing</h3><p><strong>Airmar Technology Corporation</strong> has been at the forefront of acoustic and ultrasonic sensing since its founding in 1982 in Milford, New Hampshire. Over more than four decades, the company has grown from a single-product transducer manufacturer into the world&apos;s leading designer and maker of high-performance marine sensing technology — earning a reputation for precision, durability, and innovation across recreational, commercial, scientific, and military applications.</p><p>At the core of Airmar&apos;s identity is a deep expertise in ultrasonic technology. As one of the company&apos;s directors famously put it, Airmar doesn&apos;t build marine electronics — it builds high-end &quot;speakers.&quot; That philosophy has made Airmar the trusted OEM partner behind the transducer technology found inside some of the biggest names in marine electronics. From sport fishing to offshore surveying, Airmar products are engineered to deliver reliable, high-resolution data whether you&apos;re chasing gamefish in shallow freshwater or conducting hydrographic surveys at depth.</p><h3>Marine Transducers for Every Application</h3><p>Airmar&apos;s lineup of marine transducers spans everything from entry-level transom-mount sensors to professional-grade CHIRP thru-hull transducers capable of reading extraordinary depths. Their CHIRP-ready transducers operate across low, medium, high, and high-wide frequency bands, providing anglers and mariners with exceptional target separation, bottom detail, and depth performance. Crucially, Airmar&apos;s &quot;Mix &amp; Match&quot; cable system means a single transducer body can be paired with brand-specific adapter cables — making it easy to upgrade your electronics without swapping out the transducer itself.</p><p>Airmar transducers are engineered to work seamlessly with leading marine electronics platforms. Their <a href="/11479-airmar-raymarine-transducers-accessories-202422">Raymarine-compatible transducers and accessories</a> are a popular choice for Axiom and other Raymarine multifunction display users who want industry-leading sonar performance. Likewise, Airmar&apos;s <a href="/11479-airmar-humminbird-transducers-cables-accessories-202118">Humminbird-compatible transducers, cables, and accessories</a> — including dedicated 9-pin and 14-pin connector variants — integrate directly with Helix, SOLIX, and APEX fish finders for plug-and-play CHIRP capability.</p><h3>WeatherStation Instruments</h3><p>Beyond transducers, Airmar is renowned for its WeatherStation® instruments — all-in-one ultrasonic weather sensors that consolidate multiple measurement capabilities into a single compact, rugged housing. Using proprietary ultrasonic technology with no moving parts, these instruments measure wind speed and direction, temperature, humidity, barometric pressure, and rainfall simultaneously. Because they rely on ultrasound rather than mechanical anemometers, they are immune to bearing wear and unaffected by salt, dirt, and marine fouling — making them exceptionally reliable in harsh environments.</p><p>WeatherStation instruments are deployed worldwide on fixed marine platforms, unmanned surface vehicles (USVs), research vessels, and land-based weather monitoring stations. They are trusted by organizations ranging from recreational boaters to national oceanographic centers.</p><h3>Quality and Warranty</h3><p>Airmar&apos;s commitment to quality is reflected in its manufacturing process — largely hands-on and craftsmanship-driven — and in its warranty program. As of 2025, Airmar extended its standard product warranty to three years across its full lineup, including transducers and sensors. Installers who are Airmar Certified Installers (ACIs) can offer customers an exclusive extended warranty on qualifying transducers, reinforcing the brand&apos;s long-term support philosophy.</p>

Product Details

The Airmar B164-12-MM is a high-performance bronze thru-hull transducer designed for deep-water fishing and cruising applications. This dual-frequency transducer operates at 50/200 kHz with 1 kW power output, delivering exceptional depth performance and target separation in demanding marine environments.

Key Features:

  • Dual-frequency operation: 50 kHz for deep water coverage and 200 kHz for detailed imaging
  • 1 kW power handling for superior depth penetration
  • 12° tilted element designed for hull deadrise angles between 8° and 15°
  • Low-profile flush-mount design eliminates the need for a fairing block
  • Durable bronze housing for long-term corrosion resistance
  • Mix and Match cable system allows compatibility with multiple fishfinder brands

The B164's flush-mount construction sits nearly flush with the hull bottom, reducing drag and eliminating turbulence without requiring a separate fairing. The tilted element ensures the sonar beam is properly oriented perpendicular to the water surface when installed on angled hulls. This transducer requires a compatible Mix and Match cable (sold separately) to connect to your chartplotter or fishfinder.

Specifications:

  • Frequencies: 50/200 kHz
  • Power: 1000 Watts
  • Tilted element angle: 12°
  • Recommended hull deadrise: 8° to 15°
  • Housing material: Bronze
  • Installation type: Thru-hull

Ideal for offshore fishing vessels, sport fishing boats, and cruising yachts requiring reliable deep-water performance. The bronze construction makes this transducer suitable for saltwater and freshwater applications.

Good job

Quick delivery and product is looking good but have not installed yet.

I paid a little extra for the fast delivery but it was worth it. I got it quickly and it worked great

Fast delivery. Astonishingly cheaper than other sources. A+++

Easy
