Long Losmandy 435mm Dovetail plate incl. Radius Blocks for Celestron C11 & Meade 12 inch SCT Code: 30A065C
30A065C
Losmandy Style Dovetail plate with Radius blocks for Celestron 11 and Meade 12 inch SCT's and other scopes with a tube diameter of approx 11-12 inches - includes radius blocks for mounting the OTA securely on an EQ mount. A big improvement on thin alloy SCT factory mounting rails which flex quite easily. To see what we mean simply try to rock your telescope side to side on it's current mount. That flex translates to pointing error. Excess metal is machined away without compromising on rigidity or strength (approx. 20-30% weight reduction). Recommmended if you're near the imaging limit of your equatorial mount which is usually about 70% of the manufacturers stated visual limit.

Benefit summary:

  • A light weight premium quality product.
  • Radius diam. 270 - 300mm OTAs
  • Can be used piggyback for a solid mounting platform of guide scopes or cameras.
