Explore Scientific Cradle Ring Set for Aluminum 127mm OTA
Explore Scientific Replacement Cradle Ring Set for 127 mm
This Explore Scientific Replacement Cradle Ring Set will accept any of the Explore Scientific 127 mm aperture aluminum telescope tubes. It is a little too small for the Carbon Fiber models. If your original Ring Set was damaged, you can use this product as an exact replacement.
The hinged ring system separates easily by loosening the over-sized metal thumbscrews, and locks securely back into place once the OTA has been nestled inside the rings. Each extruded aluminum ring set is topped with a slotted carry handle so that it is easy to move your telescope around when it is off the mount. Attach a camera, guidescope, or other accessory to the top of the handle with standard 1/4-20 bolts. Each cradle ring assembly comes with a dovetail plate for quick attachment to a variety of "Vixen-style" mounts, including the Twilight Mount from Explore Scientific.
