The Rowan AZ75 is like a miniature version of the AZ100 but without slow-motion controls. One may think of it as a dual mount version of our venerable Stellarvue M002C mount both in its higher capacity and function. It operates using friction clutches to control the drag in place of the slow-motion controls used on the AZ100 mounts. The AZ75 mount head is a better option for use with the SVX127D and SVX130T. For our larger telescopes, we recommend the AZ100.

Details:

CNC machined and black anodized finished and fitted with stainless steel hardware.

Features include adjustable friction clutches on both axis for smooth push-to observing.

32mm diameter aluminum axis shafts supported in high quality ball and taper bearings.

Load capacity is 33 lbs each side depending on scope length.

Top elevation axis lock for eyepiece changes.

Mount weight 9 lbs

Mount weight with 2 x V saddles 4.4kg

Mount base can be supplied with option for M12, M10 or 3/8" unc tapped hole to attach to tripods.

Compact 'V' section saddle. 170mm long with 2 clamps.

Pan-tilt handle.

Counterweights and counterweight shaft.
