Sky-Watcher 180 mm Losmandy dovetail: the wide profile for heavy duty
The wide Losmandy profile clamps over a much larger surface area than a Vixen dovetail bar: less flex, less play, more stability in the image. Exactly what heavier OTAs and imaging setups need. This 180 mm aluminum plate also provides space to mount tube rings far apart and fine-tune the balance.
The green version matches the Sky-Watcher style and the mounting holes align with the standard ring mount.
