Airmar B60 20 Degree Bronze Tilted Element 600W 8-Pin Transducer for Garmin

B60 20 Degree Bronze Tilted Element 600W 8-Pin for Garmin

The B60 is a 600 W, 50/200 kHz transducer that integrates Airmars popular Tilted Element feature. This Tilted Element transducer has the ceramic element fixed at either a 20 or 12 angle within the housing. When the transducer is installed almost flush to the hull, the tilt of the element corrects for the hulls deadrise angle. By orienting the beam directly down, it ensures maximum echo returns to the transducer for more accurate depth readings.

Features:

• Fixed 20 tilted version for 16 to 24 hull deadrise angles
• Depth and fast-response water temperature sensing
• 600 W of power
• Dual-frequency element:
• 50 kHz with a wide 45 beamwidth for depth performance to 353 m (1200)
• 200 kHz with a 12 beamwidth for depth performance to 206 m (700)
• Perfect for center-console or trailered boats
• Low-profile bronze housing extends only 5 mm (3/16) outside the hull
• No effect on your boats running performance
• Bronze housing for fiberglass or wood hull

The Airmar B60-20-8G is a high-performance 600-watt transducer designed for accurate depth and water temperature readings on boats up to 26 feet long. Featuring a fixed 20-degree tilt within a low-profile bronze housing, this transducer is optimized for hull deadrise angles ranging from 16 to 24 degrees. Its unique tilt corrects for hull angles when installed almost flush to the hull, ensuring precise beam orientation directly downward for maximum echo return and reliable readings in various water conditions. The dual-frequency design offers versatility, with a wide 45-degree beam at 50 kHz providing depth performance up to 1,200 feet and a narrower 12-degree beam at 200 kHz supporting shallower depths up to 700 feet, making it suitable for both deep-sea and inland fishing or yachting applications. This transducer also features quick-response water temperature sensing, adding valuable data for navigation and fishing. Constructed with durable bronze housing, it is ideal for fiberglass or wooden hulls and minimally extends outside the hull, reducing drag and maintaining vessel performance. The unit's compact size and robust construction make it suitable for center-console and trailered boats, with a mounting hole size of 2-3/8 inches. Its reliable operation and straightforward installation process make it an excellent choice for recreational boaters seeking precise sonar and temperature data without compromising vessel performance. Whether used for leisure, fishing, or yachting, the Airmar B60 transducer provides consistent, accurate readings to enhance your boating experience.
