Furuno Rubber Coated Transducer, 1kW (No Plug)

The Furuno Rubber Coated Transducer, 1kW (No Plug) is a hull-mounted or chest-mounted sonar transducer designed for recreational and professional fishing applications where reliable bottom detection and fish-finding capability are essential. Operating at 28 kHz with 1 kilowatt power output, this transducer delivers the frequency and power output needed for moderate-depth fisheries and inland water systems where clarity and range matter without excessive beam spread.

The 31×34 degree beam angle provides balanced coverage for structure detection and bottom mapping without excessive side lobe interference. At 1 kW power, this unit generates sufficient acoustic energy to penetrate freshwater and light saltwater conditions while maintaining fine detail resolution at the 28 kHz frequency—a sweet spot for anglers targeting mid-water species and distinguishing hard bottom from soft substrate. The rubber coating protects against impact and corrosion, extending operational life in harsh marine environments. A 15-meter cable is included; note that no connector is provided, allowing integration with existing sonar systems or custom installation.

This transducer is purpose-built for anglers upgrading older sonar systems, boaters needing a replacement transducer compatible with legacy Furuno electronics, and operators who require a compact, self-contained transducer for portability or simplified mounting. Serious freshwater fishermen and coastal charter operations benefit from the robust construction and straightforward installation path this model offers.

The 1 kW, 28 kHz specification positions this transducer in the mid-range power and frequency tier—more sensitive than basic 50 kHz units, less specialized than high-power deep-water variants. Buyers should confirm cable connector compatibility with their sonar head unit before ordering, as this model ships without a connector attached.
