Metal dovetail plate with fineadjustable locking screws — secure, simple attachment for telescope tubes and mounts What it does Provides a reliable mechanical interface to attach a telescope tube (OTA) to a telescope mount using a dovetail connection. Locks the OTA in place with fineadjustable screws to reduce movement and maintain alignment during observing or imaging. Key benefits Secure hold: Metal construction combined with adjustable locking screws keeps the telescope tube firmly seated and minimizes slippage under load. Precise clamping: Fineadjustable screws allow you to tighten to the exact tension needed for a stable connection without over‑stress. Durable and stable: Metal construction resists deformation and provides a longlasting mounting surface that stays true under repeated use. Easy to use in the field: Simple dovetail interface lets you attach, remove, or swap tubes quickly and reliably. Important attributes Function: Dovetail plate for mounting telescope tube to telescope mount. Material: Metal construction for strength and durability. Fastening: Fineadjustable locking screws for controlled, secure clamping. Compatibility: For telescope tubes and mounts that use a dovetail plate interface. Practical use scenarios Visual observing: Quickly mount a refractor or small reflector on a portable mount at a dark‑sky site; tighten the locking screws to prevent play during tracking. Imaging sessions: Secure the OTA to an equatorial mount before a long exposure run; fine adjustment of the screws helps maintain stable balance and alignment. Equipment swapping and storage: Rapidly remove or swap telescope tubes in the observatory or during transport while ensuring repeatable, secure attachment each time. What to expect A straightforward, durable dovetail plate that performs the basic, critical function of holding your telescope tube to the mount with controlled clamping provided by fine‑adjustable locking screws.
