80 mm Mounting Rings
These mounting ring sets use 97 mm ID adjustable mounting rings with nylon tipped stainless adjustment screws

 

R080A150

R80A: Finderscope rings - with multi-use mounting base - $ 46

This ring set comes with a quick release dovetail shoe that mounts directly to the Stellarvue cnc clamshell using two screws. It also mounts to the Stellarvue dual speed focuser using a single screw. It does not mount to the 2” Feather Touch focuser since the Feather Touch does not have any mounting holes. This is the one to chose for mounting the finderscope to a Dobsonian telescope either on a flat board or to a strut tube. It is our lightest finderscope ring system.
