Astrozap Celestron 11" SCT, Flexible Black Plastic, with One Notch for German Equatorial Mounts

AstroZap Flexible Dew Shield – For Celestron 11" SCT (Black Plastic, One Notch for German Equatorial Mounts)

Lightweight Dew and Glare Control with Mounting Rail Clearance

The AstroZap Flexible Dew Shield for Celestron 11" Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes is a simple, lightweight solution to two common problems: dew buildup and stray light. Designed for 11" OTAs mounted on German Equatorial Mounts, this version includes a single precision-cut notch to accommodate the bottom dovetail rail—ensuring a snug, centered fit that won’t interfere with your mounting hardware.

Constructed from durable black ABS plastic and felt-lined on the inside, the shield wraps securely around the corrector end of your telescope to block unwanted radiative cooling and suppress ambient light reflections. The Velcro-style closure makes it quick and easy to install, even in the dark, and the flexible design allows it to roll up or flatten for convenient storage and transport.

This is a go-to solution for observers and imagers who need reliable dew protection with minimal weight and fuss.

Key Features:

• Custom Fit for Celestron 11" SCTs on German Equatorial Mounts

• Single Notch Design: Clears bottom dovetail mounting rail for GEM setups

• Black ABS Plastic Construction: Lightweight and durable for field or backyard use

• Felt-Lined Interior: Blocks glare and delays dew formation

Compatibility:

Fits Celestron 11" Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes mounted on German Equatorial Mounts (e.g., CGEM, AVX, or similar) using a single dovetail rail. Not suitable for fork-mounted scopes or dual-rail configurations—see dual-notch versions for those setups.

Observing Tip:

Flexible dew shields like this are a favorite for travel setups. They roll up small but make a big difference—especially when you're imaging faint deep-sky targets and need every ounce of contrast the sky will give you.
