Sky-Watcher 90° Polar Scope Eyepiece – Enhanced Comfort and Precision for Polar Alignment

The Sky-Watcher 90° Polar Scope Eyepiece is designed to simplify and enhance the polar alignment process for equatorial mounts. By providing a comfortable 90-degree angled view, this eyepiece eliminates the need for awkward positioning, making it easier to accurately align your telescope.

It securely clamps over the standard polar scope eyepiece using three non-marring, plastic-tipped, knurled metal thumbscrews, ensuring a secure and stable connection. This superior clamping system outperforms similar products that rely on a single screw or a brass compression ring, which can be unreliable over time.
