The performance of Airmar's "1 kW, 260 family" of transducers is legendary. The combination of power and sensitivity has made this the high-performing transducer of choice with conventional fishfinders. Operating at 50 and 200 kHz, the narrow, 6° beam at 200 kHz provides excellent target resolution and crisp images of fish holding tight to wrecks and reefs. The 50 kHz is excellent at deep-water detection, and its wide, 19° beam yields broad coverage under the boat.
The thru-hull, B260 model has a bronze housing and is also available in stainless steel (SS260) for installation in metal hulls. Installed with the included, custom-fitting, High-performance Fairing, the B260 gives excellent results at speeds up to 30 knots (34 MPH).
Upgrade your sonar game with the B260 Bronze Thru-Hull transducer, a powerhouse designed for serious anglers chasing trophy fish in deep waters or tight to structure. This robust unit delivers crystal-clear images across a wide range of depths, turning murky bottoms into detailed maps that reveal hidden fish and underwater features. Whether you're targeting bottom-dwellers or scanning vast blue water expanses, its advanced broadband technology ensures you never miss the action.
The magic lies in its low-profile ceramic design, which minimizes ringing for cleaner returns—perfect for spotting fish hugging the bottom or weeds. At 50 kHz, the seven-element array paints expansive coverage, ideal for offshore trolling or searching vast reefs. Flip to 200 kHz, and the tight beam slices through clutter, delivering the sharp resolution bass anglers crave near drop-offs and points.
Anglers report consistently spotting schools others miss, thanks to the broadband ceramics that handle varied bottom types—from soft mud to hard rock—with ease. It's not just about seeing more; it's about interpreting signals faster for quicker hooksets.
Mounting a thru-hull like this one is straightforward but rewards attention to detail. Select a spot forward of the propeller, amidships, where the hull is flattest for optimal beam spread. Drill carefully, bed the unit in marine sealant, and secure the fairing block to align with your boat's deadrise angle. This setup ensures bubble-free operation and peak performance at all speeds.
Pro tip: For fiberglass hulls, use a hole saw sized for a snug fit, and always test-fire the system post-install to verify clear pings.
Routine care extends its lifespan. After every trip, rinse with fresh water to flush salt. Inspect the face for growth—lightly scrub with a soft brush and non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid high-pressure washers that could damage the ceramics. Winterize by storing dry if pulling the boat. With proper upkeep, expect years of reliable service.
Engineered for plug-and-play with displays from leading brands like Lowrance HDS series and Simrad NSE series. Its standard connector mates effortlessly, unlocking full dual-frequency potential without adapters in most setups.
