Details
Suitable for heavy accessories!
With radius and with holes for SC telescope tubes (C8, C9¼, C11, Meade 8") and with 70 mm wide support surface for mounting of any tube rings, suitable for Vixen clamps (and their clones), as well as all Celestron mounts and Sky-Watcher mounts, weight 640 g.
.For years we have been annoyed by the prism dove tail for the 8" Schmidt-Cassegrain optics, which are much too short (if you connect a CCD camera, for example, the optics cannot be balanced ...). That's why we spent a few thousand euros on a continuous casting mould and can have these prism bars made exclusively for us. A real gain in functionality for every Schmidt-Cassegrain optic. The dove tail can protrude from the C8 tube either at the back or at the front (!).

Dovetail-bars and -clamps - the “Missing Link” for your equipment
Mounting accessories connect telescope and mount - be it for a permanent setup or to make quick changes from one instrument to the next possible. We can offer several bars and plates, so that you can adapt almost every telescope: Modell V (EQ) bars and clamps - for Vixen / Celestron / Sky-Watcher / Synta and many more. (Base width of the bar's prism: 44 mm. Bar width of the side facing the telescope: 70 mm) Modell Z bars and clamps - for Zeiss / Astro Physics (Base width of the bar's prism: 40 mm. Bar width of the side facing the telescope: 70 mm) Modell 3" bars and clamps - for Losmandy / Astro Physics (large) / Celestron (large) (Base width of the bar's prism: 76 mm, equals 3". Bar width of the side facing the telescope: 105 mm) Special lengths up to 6.000 mm long V, Z and 3" bars The matching accessories All of our dovetail bars do have integrated, deepened marking lines over the whole length of the bar. They mark the exact center line of the bar, as well as the seperation of the screw holes of Celestron telescopes and Astro-Physics mounting rings, so that you can easily drill...

Baader Custom Developments for telescope installations
We received a question from our customer about our turn-key telescope solutions. It was actually only a short question, but we answer it in detail to show you what kind of benefit it provides, when ordering a complete telescope system from us. The question: Could you tell me what the OTA rings on the TEC140 in the attached image (from a Baader installation) are. I can see that the outer rings are the Baader heavy duty rings but what out the inner rings (inside the larger, outer rings). Do you sell these inner rings? Our answer: In short: Unfortunately we cannot offer these as regular purchasable products. In detail: these inner rings are always specially made for each complete telescope project where we supply all instrumentation ourselves. Only in this case we have the telescopes all in house for combining, can measure the EXACT tube diameters and fabricate matching contact-pressure rings, to stiffen out the tube(s), so that there is no chance at all that the tube itself is getting deformed from the three pressure pins of the outer heavy duty guiding rings. Such precaution is mandatory if the owner wants to do unguided imaging, since otherwise the tube will get...
