More Info

This cast-aluminum 116 ID Orion Telescope Tube Ring set features quick-release, hinged clamp knobs and felt lining. Designed for use with Orion telescope mounts, they fit some other brands of mounts as well. One of the two rings in the set has a 1/4"-20 piggyback camera adapter on it, the other has a threaded 1/4"-20 hole. The piggyback camera adapter can be removed for mounting an adapter plate for a guide scope on top of the tube rings. For use with Orion SkyView Pro or Atlas telescope mounts, you will also need a dovetail mounting plate.

Set of two rings includes mounting bolts and washers. Inside diameter (ID) is listed. Choose the size that matches the outside diameter of your telescope tube.

Notes for Selecting Tube Rings:

Outer diameter (OD) of the telescope should match inner diameter (ID) of rings. If OD of the telescope is a little smaller than ID of the rings, that is OK; you can "shim" inside of rings with extra felt.

The column labeled "Rings Fit" can be used as a guide for selecting appropriate rings if you don’t know the OD of the telescope.

Vixen dovetail plates are compatible with the SkyView Pro telescope mount.

The rings can obviously hold the corresponding size tube. The issue is to find the right type of bolts to fasten the rings to the rail. The hex-head bolts provided with the rings stick out too much and don't allow the rail to be slid in and out the saddle (of my CG-5). If one wants to use flat-head bolts, several trips to the hardware store may be required to find the right ones. Some holes of some of the rings are SAE threaded, others are metric. Different types threads may be in different holes of the same ring or in corresponding holes of rings of different sizes. Most threads are either SAE 1/4-20 or M6. They look similar but are not interchangable. It is helpful to have a handful of both types of bolts around by the time the rings arrive.

I really can't complain. I bought a st-120 and these are the rings for it. With the threads they worked well with the mounting system I use with my LX-200.
Yes, I recommend this product!
