GIRO ERCOLE - High-performance Mount and Pan/Tilt Head - made in Germany
The altazimuth mount is a real alternative to tilt heads. Without weight compensation, the Giro Ercole supports instruments up to 10 kg PER AXIS! Therefore, you can attach something like binoculars or a spotting scope on one side and a powerful telephoto lens on the other.

Features and upgrading possibilities of the Giro Ercole:
Connection at the base - female M10 thread. The moutn fits perfectly to Berlebach tripods, but can also be attached to a photo tripod with 3/8" connector.
The mount offers two plane seatings with two female M6 threads each (distance 35 mm). We recommend saddle plates for the easy and comfortable quick-coupling of telescopes.
When using especially heavy instruments (10 kg to 18 kg), a counterweight shaft can be attached to the other side. Suitable are common counterweights with a central bore of 20 mm.
The GIRO-Ercole is manufactured out of high-tensile aluminium alloy with state-of-the-art CNC machines - a German quality product!
The radial/axial bearing is completely free of lubricants. Inside of the mount, high-quality plain bearings are used. The mount does not bounce, it stays exactly where you want it to stay. You can precisely track even slow motions (stars, animals) at high magnifications.
Motion resistance is set by non-slip screws. These screws also allow full clamping of the axes.
