Airmar B60 Thru-Hull Transducer 20° Tilted Element

Overview

Built for serious anglers running center-console or trailered boats up to 26 feet who need reliable depth and temperature data without sacrificing hull integrity or speed. The B60 is the go-to choice for freshwater and inshore fishing where a low-profile installation and accurate bottom readings matter.

This is a proven dual-frequency thru-hull transducer that handles the deadrise angle your boat actually has. The 20-degree tilted element corrects for hull geometry automatically, which means you get a straight-down sonar beam and accurate readings even on boats with significant deadrise. You're not fighting your hull design—you're working with it.

Key Features

• Tilted Element Design — the ceramic element sits at a 20-degree fixed angle inside the housing to automatically compensate for hull deadrise up to 24 degrees — your sonar beam points straight down where it counts, not off to the side where it's useless.
• Dual-Frequency Performance — 50 kHz with a 45-degree beamwidth for wide coverage and depth to 1200 feet, plus 200 kHz with a 12-degree beamwidth for detail and precision to 700 feet — switch frequencies to match your fishing depth and the structure you're hunting.
• 600 Watts of Power — enough punch to penetrate deep water and get clean returns in heavy cover or soft bottom — you'll see structure other anglers miss.
• Low-Profile Bronze Housing — protrudes only 3/16 inch outside the hull, which means zero drag penalty and no effect on your boat's running performance or fuel economy.
• Depth and Temperature Data — real-time water temperature reading helps you track thermal breaks and adjust your fishing strategy on the water.

Specs & What's Included

Compatibility: This transducer is designed for Navico xSonic systems with a 9-pin connector. Make sure your fishfinder has a 9-pin transducer port before ordering. Not sure if this works with your setup? Call or text us at (833) 831-4077 — we'll tell you straight.

What You Get: The B60 transducer only. You'll need a compatible Navico xSonic fishfinder unit with appropriate mounting hardware for your boat.

Installation Requirements: Fits boats up to 26 feet with a maximum 24-degree deadrise angle. Requires a 60 mm (2-3/8 inch) hole through the hull. Usable shaft length is 68.5 mm (2.70 inches). Bronze housing suits fiberglass or wood hulls; if you're running a steel hull, contact us about the stainless steel SS60 alternative.
