Takahashi TKA06210 – FS-60 Dew Shield Extension (White)

Stay dry. Stay focused.

There’s no question that Takahashi optics are sharp—but even the sharpest lens becomes useless under a blanket of dew. The TKA06210 Dew Shield Extension adds crucial protection to your FS-60 refractor, reducing exposure to radiative cooling and giving you more time under the stars before dew can settle in.

Finished in Takahashi’s classic white enamel, this lightweight extension blends beautifully with your optical tube while serving an important functional role. It threads securely onto the standard dew shield and adds a few extra inches of defense without throwing off balance or making storage difficult.

This isn’t just a tube—it’s an elegant solution to an age-old observing problem, and it’s built with the same care and quality Takahashi puts into their optics.

Key Features:

• Designed specifically for the Takahashi FS-60

• Reduces dew formation by extending the dew shield

• Matches OTA finish with Takahashi white enamel

• Threads securely in place—no wobbles, no tape

• Lightweight aluminum construction won’t affect balance

Cloudy Nights Community Insight

An FS-60Q owner noted that the extension “added an extra hour of dew-free observing most nights—especially helpful when doing visual work from a humid site.”

Observing Tip

If you image with the FS-60 at night, consider combining this extension with a small heater strip and Smart Controller. The passive shield slows dew formation; the heater takes care of the rest—with far less power required.
