Airmar B164 1KW Bronze TH 12D Tilted Element 6P Garmin

The Airmar B164 1KW Bronze TH 12D Tilted Element 6P Garmin is a premium through-hull transducer engineered for serious anglers and boaters who demand accurate sonar performance in freshwater and saltwater environments. Built by Airmar, a trusted leader in marine electronics, this transducer delivers the reliability and precision needed for consistent fish-finding and bottom mapping. Whether you're targeting structure in deep lakes or navigating coastal waters, this bronze-hull transducer integrates seamlessly with Garmin fishfinder systems to give you real-time underwater visibility that drives better catches.

The B164 operates at 1 kilowatt of power output, delivering strong signal penetration and exceptional clarity across a wide depth range. The tilted element design (12-degree angle) is specifically optimized to reduce turbulence noise and dead zones beneath the hull, a critical advantage when fishing from moving boats or in challenging conditions. Bronze construction provides superior corrosion resistance and durability compared to plastic alternatives, making this transducer ideal for salt water applications and extended seasons. The six-pin Garmin connector ensures straightforward integration with compatible Garmin chartplotters and fishfinder units, requiring only standard installation practices—no complex adapters or modifications needed.

Experienced boaters installing the Airmar B164 will appreciate its robust construction and proven track record in tournament and professional fishing applications. The transducer's performance shines in both shallow cover and deep-water offshore scenarios, making it a versatile choice for anglers who fish multiple venues. Installation is best handled at the time of hull work or routine haul-out to ensure proper through-hull mounting and cable routing. Compatibility is confirmed with Garmin systems featuring six-pin transducer inputs; verify your specific chartplotter model before purchase for optimal performance and feature access.
