The adapter allows the use of SC accessories on 2" adapters and focusers.
♦ Telescopic side connection: 2" receptacle with filter thread M48x0.75 (internal thread)
♦ Eyepiece side connection: SC thread (2" external thread)
♦ The SC thread is longer so that the union adapter can also be used
♦ 2" receptacle is smooth with no locking slot so it is impossible to tip or tilt
TS-Optics 2" Barrel to SC Male Thread Adapter - SC to 2" Accessory Connection Adapter
The adapter allows you to connect Schmidt-Cassegrain accessories, such as correctors, off-axis guides, etc., to focusers with a 2" receptacle. The adapter makes particular sense when using a 2" focuser on an SC telescope and want to continue using SC accessories.
♦ The TS2A-SCA adapter has a 2" filter thread (internal thread) on the side of the telescope, allowing for mounted 2" filters to be attached.
♦ The 2" barrel is smooth and therefore optimized for modern focusers and adapters with ring clamps. Therefore tilting or tilting is impossible.
♦ A shoulder separates the SC thread from the 2" barrel, allowing for a clean stop.
♦ The external SC thread is extra long at 8.5 mm. You can also use T2 or 1.25" adapters with union ring.
♦ An anti-reflective thread prevents unwanted reflections.
Connection at telescope side: | 2" barrel - length 30 mm |
