The AP-DS-8.4 is built with high quality aluminum alloy and is black powder coated for installation on the boat transom. This product is designed to fit the Garmin® DownVü/SideVü transducers GT36 (#010-13072-00), GT40 (#010-12220-00) or GT56 (#010-13073-00). Item AP-DS-8.4 includes stainless steel hardware and easy easy do-it yourself instructions.
Our Armor Plates are designed to protect the transducer from side to side as well as front and back impact. They are designed as an added attachment to our older SBB-4 or current SBB-5 Spring Back Bracket for all around transducer protection. Consider ordering a Spring Back Bracket SBB-5 when ordering the Armor Plate. If the Armor Plate is installed anywhere other than on the transom, for example on the set back wall, some shimming may be required if the transducer angle needs to be adjusted.
