Explore Scientific Cradle Ring Set for ES 102 Series Telescopes

The Explore Scientific Replacement Cradle Ring Set is designed for ES 102 Series Telescopes. The cradle assembly fits Carbon Fiber 152mm telescope snuggly, yet protects 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. The 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 any other 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.
