Skywatcher Pier extension WAVE EQ6 180mm

Extension Column for Sky-Watcher WAVE-100i / WAVE-150i Mounts to EQ6 Tripod (180 mm)

The extension column for Sky-Watcher WAVE-100i and WAVE-150i mounts substantially improves observing ergonomics and clearance when operating long refracting telescopes. Designed to bridge your mount and an EQ6 tripod, it stops the optical tube assembly from contacting tripod legs during zenith observations.

Key advantages

• Equipment protection: Prevents long refractor telescopes from bumping into a tripod leg.
• Enhanced viewing comfort: Facilitates comfortable viewing angles when pointing high near the zenith.
• Seamless adaptation: Enables mounting Sky-Watcher WAVE-100i and WAVE-150i heads onto sturdy EQ6 tripods.

Product description

With a height of 180 mm, this extension column is engineered specifically for users of Sky-Watcher WAVE-100i and WAVE-150i mounts who wish to utilize an EQ6 tripod. When using longer optical tubes such as refractors, the telescope body can risk colliding with tripod legs near high altitude angles. This column elevates the setup, providing vital spacing for smooth, unhindered rotation. If you require expert advice on mount compatibility, SkyHunters is available to assist with your selection.
