Imagine scanning a broader swath beneath your boat, spotting schools of fish that narrower beams might miss entirely. The TM185HW stands out in the world of marine electronics by delivering exactly that—twice the coverage compared to standard high-frequency CHIRP transducers. Its innovative design maintains a consistent 25-degree beamwidth across the full 150-250 kHz high-frequency spectrum, ensuring crisp, detailed returns from the upper water column right down to the bottom. Whether you're chasing trophy bass in shallow bays or tracking pelagic species offshore, this transducer transforms your sonar display into a vivid map of underwater activity.
Crafted for reliability on boats from 8 to 12 meters, it thrives on outboards and inboards with fiberglass, wood, or metal hulls sporting 2 to 20 degrees of deadrise. The urethane housing shrugs off harsh marine environments, while the stainless steel bracket guarantees a rock-solid transom mount.
CHIRP technology sweeps continuously across frequencies, painting a sharper picture than fixed-frequency sonar. At 150-250 kHz with 1 kW power, the TM185HW excels in shallow to mid-depths, where its wide beam uncovers fish-holding structures and bait balls that slip past conventional setups. Anglers report larger, more defined echoes, making target separation effortless even in cluttered waters.
Beyond depth tracking, the fast-response temperature sensor helps you pinpoint thermoclines—those hidden layers where fish congregate. This dual functionality means fewer guesses and more informed decisions on lure choice and trolling speeds.
Setting up the TM185HW is straightforward for weekend warriors and pros alike. Its transom-mount design bolts onto existing brackets from popular models like TM258, TM260, TM265, or TM275, saving time and hassle on upgrades. Adjust for your hull's deadrise angle up to 20 degrees, and you're scanning in minutes. Pair it with CHIRP-enabled sounders for peak performance, and enjoy peace of mind backed by a solid two-year warranty.
This transducer shines on planing hulls, where its wide coverage maximizes every pass over structure-rich bottoms. Skip the steep learning curve—clear instructions and forgiving design make it a go-to for repowering older systems or outfitting new rigs.
Narrow-beam transducers focus tightly for deep-water precision, but they leave gaps in coverage. The TM185HW's constant 25-degree beam fills those voids, ideal for flats fishing, river runs, or coastal bays under 300 feet. Fishermen love how it reveals fish hugging the bottom edges or suspended mid-water, boosting hookups without endless circling. In tests, users note enhanced target resolution that rivals higher-end units, all while keeping your display uncluttered and intuitive.

Get more coverage under the boat with Airmar's new wide beam Chirp product line. Offering a high frequency range of 150-250 kHz and a constant 25° Beamwidth, these transducers are truly broadband at its best. In addition to improving the performance of Chirp-ready echosounders, anglers using the new wide beam transducers will achieve twice the coverage under the boat compared to our current high frequency Chirp transducers
A unique property of the new high frequency transducers is that the Beamwidth is a constant 25° angle across the entire frequency band. Now, in addition to providing vast bottom coverage and precise fish detection in the upper water column that can sometimes go unseen with our narrow beam transducers, Airmar's new wide beam format also creates crisper and larger return images on the display. We've got you covered.
