Airmar B175HW Transducer 12° Tilt CHIRP Wide Beam

Overview

Who This Is For: Serious anglers running 25-foot fiberglass or wood hulls who want wide-coverage sonar and precise fish detection in one transducer. If you fish shallow to mid-depth water and need to see both structure and suspended fish clearly, this wide-beam CHIRP transducer gives you twice the bottom coverage of traditional high-frequency units.

Product Summary: The Airmar B175HW is a bronze thru-hull transducer built for speed and coverage. It transmits across a 150–250 kHz range in true CHIRP format, maintaining a constant 25° beam width that blankets more water under your boat than narrow-beam alternatives. That means crisper target separation, bigger return images on your display, and the ability to spot fish you'd miss with conventional sonar.

Key Features

• Wide-Beam CHIRP (150–250 kHz) — constant 25° beam width across the entire frequency band — you get twice the bottom coverage of traditional high-frequency transducers, so fewer dead zones under the boat.
• 100 kHz Total Bandwidth — covers the popular 200 kHz frequency plus extended range — gives your fishfinder maximum flexibility to lock onto both structure and fish in any water column.
• 12° Tilted Installation — optimized mounting angle for fiberglass and wood hulls — eliminates blind spots and improves target detection when you're moving.
• Integrated Depth and Temperature Sensor — fast-response readings — you get reliable water temp to track seasonal fish movement without adding a separate sensor.
• 1 kW Power Output — strong signal return — penetrates murky water and delivers clean images even in challenging conditions.
• Xducer ID Technology — automatic transducer recognition — plug it in and your fishfinder knows what it's talking to, eliminating setup guesswork.

Specs & What's Included

Compatibility: This transducer is CHIRP-ready and works with any modern Airmar-compatible fishfinder that supports broadband frequency. The 12° tilt angle is engineered for boats 25 feet and larger with fiberglass or wood hulls. This product requires a separate Mix and Match cable — you'll need to verify your fishfinder's connector type and cable compatibility before purchase. Not sure if this works with your setup?
