Description

Designed for iOptron AZ Mount Pro, this Altitude Gear and Clutch upgrade kit can be used to replace the altitude gear/clutch of an iOptron MiniTower Pro/MiniTower II. The tapered surfaces on ring gear and brass washer will translate the applied axial pressure into both axial and radial pressure to provide better locking power of the altitude clutch. The locking knob with levers will make the altitude knob easy to tighten, especially during the winter time.

The kit includes:

  • Ring gear X1
  • Taper brass altitude washer X1
  • Altitude locking knob with threaded holes X1
  • Lock lever X 4

Sophia ★★★★★

Installed this on my MiniTower II and the clutch engagement is much smoother now, no more slipping when slewing to a target. The tapered surfaces on the new gear mate perfectly, making polar alignment adjustments feel precise.

Hannah ★★★★★

Finally had a chance to swap out the old clutch on my mount and this kit fit perfectly. The tapered surfaces meshed smoothly, making the altitude adjustment much more precise than before.

George ★★★★★

The tapered surfaces on this gear kit made the altitude adjustment on my mount significantly smoother than the stock setup. Installation took about an hour and the clutch now holds position perfectly without any slippage.
