Description

Adapter from M60 to T2 - with 2" Filter Thread

This adaptor is made for all telescopes whose focuser has an M60 female thread. (Examples see below!) It offers an ultra low-profile adaptation to the standard T2 thread. In addition the adaptor also has an M48 2" filter thread for filters, correctors etc.

This adaptor solves back focus problems in many telescopes, especially in Newtonian telescopes. At the same time it allows you to use 2" filters.

The adaptor is compatible with the following telescopes (examples):

Celestron... Newtonians with 2" Rack and Pinion Focuser
Vixen... Newtonians with 2" Rack and Pinion Focuser. Refractors.
Synta (Skywatcher)... Newtonians and Dobsonians with 2" Rack and Pinion focusers
GSO & ICS... Newtonians and Dobsonians with 2" Rack and Pinion Focuser

Specifications:

Adaptation on the telescope side: M60x0.75 male thread / M48x0.75 (2" filter thread) female
Adaptation on the camera side: T2 (M42x0.75) male thread

Practical Tips from TS:

Newtonian Telescopes with f/5 or shorter focal ratios need a coma corrector for best photographical results. The standard adaptations of many telescopes (including the ones mentioned above) have no provision for attaching such a coma corrector and still being able to reach focus with the telescope.

This adaptor is the solution for this problem. A normal coma corrector has a T2 male thread on the camera side. From this thread we have an adaptation to the 2" filter thread. With this extra part you can screw the coma corrector into this adaptor. The corrector will disappear entirely in the inside of the focuser drawtube. As a result it will not add extra length to the optical train.
