Airmar B164 1kW 0° Thru-Hull Transducer for Simrad w/Blue Connector - CW59852

Airmar B164 1kW 0° Thru-Hull Transducer for Simrad w/Blue Connector - B164-0-BL

The B164 is a 1kW bronze low-profile transducer with a fast-response temperature sensor. The transducer is ideal for fast, trailered, tournament, sport-fishing boats that cannot install an external fairing. This version has a zero degree tilt for hull deadrise angles of 0-7 degrees.

The BL (Blue Connector) version of the B164 transducer is for Lowrance fishfinders and sounders that use the standard Lowrance 7-pin blue connector. This includes the Lowrance HDS series and many other current and discontinued Lowrance units. The B164 BL version is also for the Simrad NSE series.
