Baader 8" PlaneWave Clamp - High Precision Clamping System for PlaneWave Tubes
The Baader 8" PlaneWave Clamp is a high capacity clamp designed to ensure extremely solid and precise clamping in professional astronomical setups. Its robust construction and precision machining make it the ideal choice for PlaneWave optical tubes and advanced systems requiring impeccable mechanical stability.
When ordering, it is important to indicate the mount on which it will be used to determine the appropriate type of hardware. Baader supplies the clamp without screws, as each mount requires a specific set. This ensures correct and secure integration into equipment such as 10Micron, PlaneWave L-Mount, Paramount, Astro-Physics and other high-performance platforms.
Weighing 4.15 kg, this clamp offers outstanding rigidity, preventing flexing even in configurations with heavy optical trains and long focal lengths. Its dovetail locking system provides a uniform and stable fixation, essential for advanced astrophotography, remote observatories or fixed installations where mechanical reliability is a priority.
