These split and hinged UA 79mm i.d. optical tube mounting rings are made of solid aluminum, anodized black for long life. They are felt-lined and have a lock lever to lock them on your optical tube. The rings have a 79mm internal diameter designed to fit the Radian 61mm refractor, but will also fit any refractor with a 79mm OD tube.  Now some tubes will need a little extra felt, like the Astro-Tech 60ED.  Its tube is 76mm, so a quick run to the hobby store and you should be good to go with a nice set of rings. The rings only weigh 5 oz. each.

There are three threaded mounting holes on each side of the rings for mounting on most equatorial mount dovetail plates. The center hole is 1/4"-20 thread, while the outer holes are M6-1.0. The rings also have notches routed out that provide some very nice cable managment options for heaters and such.

Fantastic! Perfect fit for my AT65EDQ

"Literally fit my 65edq perfectly without any modifications. Like they were made for it! seem to be very high quality, machining is excellent. Pretty stoked to not have to use guide scope rings anymore."

These Rings are Beautiful and

"These Rings are Beautiful and made very well for the price, I love how they latch and the finish is beyond what I was expecting for the price. Haven't fit to my scope yet but I'm sure it's going to work very well indeed and I'm very satisfied with my purchase 😊🔭"

These rings are great! I

"These rings are great! I love the snap hinge design or whatever it’s called. I bought them for my Borg 77ED II scope. I had to trim the felt slightly but after that it was a perfect fit."

Zachary C. (5/5)

Very nice set of rings

"Very nice set of rings with so many optons for mounting additional accessories. Mine is holding an AT60ED mounted to a Vixen type rail. A special thanks for the suggestion from Michael at Astronomics to use a thin piece of rubber mat to keep the Optical tube precisely fit and snug in the rings, Mounted to the rings are an ASI AIR, a red dot finder, and a 120mm-f4 compact guidescope for my guide camera. at various locations on the six sided rings. Just awesome. Now I have a grab-n-go imaging system for those short, mobile nights. And, what a bargain! Thanks, Michael!"

Worked fine for a 76mm

"Worked fine for a 76mm tube by adding 1/8-inch felt."

David M. (5/5)

The rings work perfect on

"The rings work perfect on my 76mm tube with just a small amount of additional felt. Quality tube rings, fast shipping, I would highly recommend this product and astronomics."

Peter S. (5/5)

High quality and work great

"High quality and work great with my AT60ED by adding just a little additional felt. And at a great price."

Keith R. (5/5)

Quality and Secure

"Great quality rings at awesome price. I use these rings with my AT60ED. while the rings are a couple MM wider than the 60ED, a couple pieces of tape or felt and you have a really nice upgrade over the one ringed foot that comes standard."
