EQ6-R Mount Case
This unique offering from Apertura is the culmination of customer requests. You will find nothing like it on the market. This high-quality Apertura mount case is designed specifically to work with the Sky-Watcher EQ6-R Pro and EQ6-Ri Pro mounts. Get ready for the ultimate protection during times of travel and storage! The Apertura padded mount case is a soft, polyester case that will protect your mount whether you are traveling or keeping the mount stored between uses. The high-quality material and industrial zippers will keep your mount safe from outside elements like dust and keep the Sky-Watcher mount finish from getting scratched when you are on the move. This Apertura soft case is specifically designed to fit the Sky-Watcher EQ6-R Pro and EQ6-Ri Pro mounts. The dimensions of the case are 23.5" x 19.75" x 10". Please Note: This case does not include fitted foam. However, it will fit the foam found in the beauty box of your EQ6-R mount.

Universal Tripod Case
Keep your mount tripod clean as well as bug- and scratch-free by storing it in this heavy-duty tripod case from Apertura! The Apertura Universal Tripod Case is easier to carry than hauling around a tripod on its own. Just unzip the top (the end with the Apertura "A" on it) and slide your tripod in feet first. The standard measurement for this case is 28" long. If you need extra length, you can unzip the top OR bottom extension to reveal several extra inches of storage space. This brings the total length to 38" when fully extended! The tripod carry case comes with both a sturdy handle and a shoulder strap. The two straps are thoughtfully placed to help balance the load. The super-beefy industrial zippers will keep everything closed up tightly during storage or transport.

Counterweight Case
The Apertura counterweight case is designed to meet your storage and transport needs! This soft, polyester case can carry a wide variety of different counterweights so you can protect your equipment between viewing sessions and when you are traveling. The Apertura case for counterweights is padded and designed to fit a large variety of counterweights, including the two weights that come with the Sky-Watcher EQ6-R(i) Pro mount. If you are looking to use this padded case with any other counterweights, please be sure to check the dimensions. This case comes with a padded disk that isolates your two counterweights so they do not damage each other when in the case.

High Quality Material
Both the EQ6-R Mount Case and Counterweight case are made of high-quality 600D polyester, ensuring that everything is closed up tightly and protected from outside elements. While these two cases are not waterproof, they are fine-dust-resistant. The Ultimate Tripod Case from Apertura uses Cordura-like nylon fabric, tightly woven, to protect your equipment from the elements. Like the other two cases, the tripod case is not waterproof, but it is water and fine-dust resistant. All three cases are equipped with super-beefy industrial zippers for ultimate protection.
