Garmin GT51M-TH SS TH DownVü/SideVü 500W (CHIRP 260/455 kHz) Traditional 600W (Mid-Band CHIRP 80-160) Transducer - 12-Pin

GT51M-TH - Stainless Steel Thru-Hull DownVü/SideVü 500 W (CHIRP 260/455 kHz) Traditional 600 W (Mid-band CHIRP 80-160 kHz) Transducer with Temp (12-Pin)

The CHIRP ClearVü/ SideVü elements have a power rating of 500 W per element and operating frequencies of 260/455 kHz. The traditional CHIRP sonar has a power rating of 600 W and operating frequencies of mid-band CHIRP 80-160 kHz. It includes a built-in fast-response temperature sensor. For hull deadrises less than 5 degrees.

GT51M-TH includes a 12-pin transducer with stainless steel stem, fairing block, isolation plate and bushings, mounting hardware and installation instructions. Follow the instructions carefully to avoid damaging your boat.

• Thru-hull transducers should be matched to hull material, deadrise angle, installation location, and cable route before drilling or bedding the housing.
• Scanning sonar models should be matched to the display’s supported sonar type and installed with a clear view below and beside the boat.
• This listing is built around the 12-pin connector style shown in the product data. Confirm adapter needs if your Garmin unit uses a different sonar port.

Will this work with every Garmin unit?
No. Compatibility depends on your Garmin display, sonar port, connector, and supported sonar type.

How do I choose the right tilt or deadrise?
For tilted-element thru-hull models, match the transducer angle to your hull deadrise so the sonar beam points correctly in the water.

Should I confirm before ordering?
Yes. Transducers are highly installation-specific, especially thru-hull, in-hull, pocket-mount, and high-power CHIRP models.
