Crafted for Comfort
Observing the night sky through a telescope can oftentimes make us twist our necks and backs in awkward, uncomfortable positions. This strain can cut observing sessions short, leading to frustrating, lackluster nights under the stars. The addition of a diagonal alleviates this stress, helping you view the cosmos with ease! This thoughtfully-crafted Apertura diagonal inserts at the end of your scope, bending the incoming light at an angle ideal for comfortable viewing positions. Even when your telescope is pointed at the zenith, you can enjoy a natural, relaxed posture.

Convenience on Lock!
Twist-lock in design, this non-marring compression mechanism secures your eyepieces and other accessories in place. Clockwise rotation of the knurled collar tightens the compression ring, while counterclockwise rotation loosens the ring. Built to fit your needs, the included thumbscrew adjusts the tension on the collar, offering increased or decreased effort when loosening or tightening. This diagonal is compatible with 2” focusers and accepts 2” and 1.25" accessories. This is possible through the included 2" to 1.25" adapter, meaning you have yourself a system ready for just about any eyepiece of your choice!
