Overview

When installing ESATTO 3" in a telescope with a long travel focuser (such as those usually found on refractors), it is necessary to take into account the lower travel of ESATTO 3" since it's a micrometric focuser. For this reason we have designed these 40mm and 65mm extensions that can be installed between ESATTO 3" and the telescope tube. A precise dovetail coupling system with 3 screws set at 120° allows you to manually rotate the focuser.

Matthew ★★★★★

Installing these tubes was straightforward, and the threads are cut so smoothly that everything seated perfectly on the first try. The length options covered the back focus gap I was worried about, no wobble at all.

Sophia ★★★★★

The solid aluminum construction gives these extension tubes a reassuringly precise feel when threading onto my focuser. I was worried about extra weight, but they're actually lighter than I expected for the thickness. My imaging train now sits at the perfect distance without any flexure.

Stella ★★★★★

Finally, my focuser has enough back focus to reach focus with this setup. The threading is very smooth and mates perfectly with the ESATTO 3".
