AstroZap Metal Dust Cover for 14" Meade Aluminum Dew Shields
Your 14" Meade Schmidt-Cassegrain isn’t just a telescope—it’s a deep-sky beast with an appetite for photons. But between observing sessions, it needs serious protection. The AstroZap Metal Dust Cover is designed specifically for use with AstroZap's 14" aluminum dew shields, giving your corrector plate a rigid, secure defense against dust, moisture, and accidental impact.
Made from powder-coated aluminum, this cap is built to last and perfectly matches the finish and durability of AstroZap’s metal dew shields. It slides snugly into the front opening of the dew shield (not over the OTA itself), forming a tight friction-fit seal that won’t fall out or shift during transport. No straps, no snaps—just a solid, no-nonsense cover that stays in place.
Whether you’re storing your rig in an observatory, keeping it covered between targets, or heading off to a remote star party, this dust cover helps ensure that your corrector plate stays clean, dry, and ready for action—without needing to remove the dew shield every time.
