Description

Riser blocks are used when mounting telescopes to rails when more room is needed between the rail and the telescope. This is particularly important with our smaller telescopes (SV70T, SV80ST) when a camera is mounted to the rear and it cannot be balanced on the mount. Using Stellarvue Riser Blocks, a longer rail may be used that extends to the rear and allows adjustable travel to attain balancing over the focuser. The rail does not hit the focuser since the riser block lifts the telescope 2.5" above the rail. 

This set includes two riser blocks (RB002SET) and a Vixen-sized rail that is 10.5" long. (Note: If your system needs a Losmandy-sized rail, use the RB002L instead).

Customer Reviews (4.6 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Ella ★★★★★

The machining on these risers is precise, and they let my SV70T clear the rail perfectly without any extra hardware. Definitely solved the clearance issue I was having with my setup.

Ella L. ★★★★★

Perfect fit for my SV80S—the Vixen rail lined up precisely with my existing setup, and the extra 2.5 inches of clearance made cabling much less cramped. Installation took about five minutes.

Alexander ★★★★★

These riser blocks gave me the exact clearance I needed to stop the focuser from hitting the rail on my small scope. The Vixen rail fit perfectly and the whole setup feels rock solid.
