Product Info

Manufacturer Description

Rings will fit tubes with an outer diameter of 6.20" - 6.26" (Approx. 157.5 - 159mm).

These telescope tube rings are high quality, cast-aluminum mounting rings that can be used for mounting telescope tubes on various mounts or on guidescope rails. All rings are hinged, felt-lined and have clamp-style rings for easy mounting or repositioning of the optical tube. Most rings have clamping knobs while a couple of size have clamping clips instead. Please see the photo for this product to determine whether it has a clamping knob or clip.

The base of the rings has a metric 6mm mounting thread. Gunmetal gray finish. If the outer diameter (OD) of the telescope is a little smaller than the inner diameter (ID) of the rings, you can shim the inside of rings with extra felt (not included). Price shown is for a set of 2 rings.

      5.0 Telescope Tube Rings 6.3 Very Sturdy

      Pros:

      Lightweight,Easy to Use,Accurate,Strong Construction

      Cons:

      Comments:

      This is a very sturdy ring. Will work with most 130MM Reflector scopes that have a 6.25 or there about outside dimension on tube. I used mine with a Skywatcher 130MM reflector. There is some adjustability on inside tube dims but not a lot check info in description it gives you that info. I ordered mine with some eyepieces on Thursday, they were shipped the same day USPS PRIORITY MAIL! I received the package on Saturday. Now thats from Ca. to Vermont clear across the country.
      Service is outstanding. I emailed Agena a few times and my emails were promptly returned. I already have my second order with this Company and will be a faithful customer. I will let my fellow aStronomers at my local club know of their outstanding customer commitment.
