This Astro-Tech three-piece set of vibration suppression pads acts to damp unwanted vibrations in your telescope tripod. This allows undisturbed viewing more quickly after your telescope is disturbed by wind gusts, by changing eyepieces, or by bumping the scope accidentally when focusing. The Astro-Tech vibration suppression pads significantly reduce the unwanted vibration time, often to one second or less, letting you see sharper images more quickly. The pads also decrease the amplitude of the vibrations as they die out, making them less visible.

Each circular Astro-Tech vibration suppression pad consists of a disc of elastomeric vibration-absorbing material that is mounted between a hard molded tripod leg cup and a hard molded ground cup. The pads fit between the bottom of the tripod legs and the ground to isolate the tripod from ground contact and soak up vibrations. They work on any hard surface - grass, dirt, concrete, asphalt, wood, etc. There are three small knobs on the underside of each ground cup to allow firm mounting on slightly uneven hard surfaces. 

For best results, the rubber feet on the bottom of your tripod legs should be removed before placing the legs of the tripod onto the vibration suppression pads.
