Description

The Orion Guide Scope Ring Mounting Bar is a durable and versatile astrophotography accessory designed to securely couple guide scope rings to an imaging telescope. Constructed from rigid, anodized aluminum, this 16-inch mounting bar provides a stable platform for piggyback-style guide scope installations, helping astrophotographers achieve accurate tracking and improved imaging results.

The bar features multiple pre-drilled holes along its length, allowing flexible positioning of guide scope rings to accommodate both long-tube and short-tube guide scopes. This adaptability makes it suitable for a wide range of astrophotography setups. The pre-drilled mounting pattern ensures easy compatibility with Orion SkyView Pro, Sirius, and Atlas mounted telescopes when used with tube rings.

Designed as an aid for astrophotography applications, the mounting bar requires the primary telescope to be equipped with tube rings for proper attachment. Its rigid construction minimizes flexure, maintaining alignment between the guide scope and imaging telescope during long exposure sessions. Lightweight yet robust, the Orion Guide Scope Ring Mounting Bar is an essential mechanical accessory for photographers looking to expand or stabilize their guiding setup.
