The ZWO PE200 200mm Pier Extension for the AM3 and AM5 mounts is an essential accessory if you're using longer refractors, which may otherwise hit the tripod when pointing near zenith.

Machined from aircraft aluminium for durability and rigidity, the AM5 Pier Extension can support up to 50kg while being incredibly lightweight at only 1.6kg.

The PE200 is compatible with ZWO's TC-40 Carbon Fibre tripod, along with standard 1.75" tripods from iOptron and the Celestron 2" tripod for the AVX mount. The PE200 is not currently compatible with EQ6-series tripods from Sky-Watcher. It is however compatible with the HEQ5 tripod.

The silver plate included. that is attached at the bottom of the pier extension, has a 3/8" female thread.

The PE200 can also be connected directly to the Geoptik Hercules wooden tripods using the following parts:

2 x M5 socket cap head screws - 35 - 40mm thread length
4 x regular washers - 10mm outer diameter
2 x spring washers - 5mm internal diameter
2 x M5 hex nuts
