GEOPTIK DUAL SADDLE FOR HEQ5

Regular price $239.00AUD
SKU: 30A077A

Geoptik


Colour

 

The Geoptik dual saddle accepts Losmandy and Vixen bars. This accessory replaces the original SkyWatcher HEQ5 saddle that only accommodates Vixen bars. The saddle is CNC machined and the precision of its geometry guarantees a perfect match with the dovetail bars, a key factor for stability enhancement. 

Note: Due to the many different dovetail bars on the market and different manufacturers' tolerances, we cannot guarantee compatibility with all bars. Please contact us first to double check.

Ready to use as the flange does not need to be connected to the mount.

Made in Italy.
