MULTI-CONNECTION PLATE 90 FOR ASKAR AND SHARPSTAR

$59.00 AUD
SKU: ASKARMCP90

Askar


 

The Askar multi-connection plate 90 can be installed on the Askar FRA 400, on the handle of SharpStar 61EDPH and 76EDPH. It is useful to connect extra accessories such as finderscopes, guidescopes or small telescopes with finder-type dovetails. The connection bar is highly versatile as it features 5 threaded 1/4" holes to connect it to any suitable bar with a through hole or a slot such as the handle of the SharpStar 61EDPH or to the SharpStar 76EDPH.

To connect the plate to the Askar FRA 400, you can use through holes and the supplied M5 bolts. The two locking screws on the side of the plate can be moved across the 6 threaded holes of the bar. The bar is aluminium and anodized in red.

Multi-Connection Plate

A very well made and machined accessory plate, nicely anodised to go with a lot of current cameras. I was impressed that the mounting surface is flat and as such, can be laid flat on a dovetail plate and with the number of 1/4 x 20 mounting holes it makes for any easy connection.
I have this mounted on the top Losmandy style dovetail plate I use with my ED80, it easily allows the use of the newer type UniGuide guide scope bases and allows the guide scope and guide camera to be placed over the centre of the scopes balance point. In short, an excellent piece of kit.
