Explore Scientific 127mm Carbon Fiber Telescope Replacement Cradle Ring Set - Perfect for Astronomy Enthusiasts & Stargazing Accessories

Explore Scientific Replacement Cradle Ring Set for 127 mm Carbon Fiber Scopes

Explore Scientific's Replacement Cradle Ring Set fits with the Explore Scientific 127 mm Carbon Fiber telescope tube. This is a great accessory to have if your original ring set is misplaced or damaged.

Explore Scientific cradle assemblies fit their appointed telescope OTA snuggly, yet protect the delicate surface of the tube. 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 another 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.

The TED127CFCRDL has an inside diameter of 5.7" (145 mm). If you are considering an Explore Scientific Cradle Assembly as an accessory for another 127 mm telescope, please make sure you check the Outside Diameter (OD) measurements of your scope before you buy.
