Omegon 2" Steeltrail focuser - high-end stainless steel focuser
Would you like to equip your telescope with a better focuser and always be able to find the precise point of focus? The new Omegon Steeltrail Crayford focuser lets you upgrade your telescope and have the highest precision focusing immediately. Extremely strong stainless steel ball bearings and stainless steel guides ensure durability and long life.
- exclusive 2" Crayford focuser with stainless steel ball bearings
- suitable for all Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope with an SC thread
- SC and 3.3" threads for telescope-side connection
- indestructible - stainless steel barrel for durability
- precise focusing via1:10 reduction gearing
- high load capacity for any accessory - even unclamped
- anti-reflection ridging for high contrast
You probably already know about the irritating problem when focusing on an object with your Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope: mirror-shift. The object moves around the field of view when focusing. This is due how the mirror is held in position and moved along the OTA. This mirror-shift is perhaps marginally acceptable when visually observing, but it is a curse for astrophotography. Get rid of it - with the Omegon SC Steeltrail focuser!
How to avoid mirror-shift
The focuser simple connects to the existing SC thread, fitting firmly onto your telescope. For larger telescopes, such as 10" SCs, you can even use the 3.3" thread. Complete aperture illumination without shadowing is possible. Once you focus using the Steeltrail, you realize just how precisely and smoothly it runs. Even the smallest focus change is simple with the 1:10 reduction gearing. You are guaranteed to find the precise point of focus for the object you are trying to photograph.
Steeltrail - with stainless steel ball bearings
The Omegon Steeltrail focuser uses hard stainless steel in all the important areas. The V2A stainless steel ball bearings run on stainless steel rails, giving the focuser significantly more precision. Even heavy loads over long periods are no problem for the focuser. The ball bearings ensure that it does not shift and guarantee years of consistent quality.
1:10 reduction gearing - precision focusing of objects
At high magnifications or for astrophotography, it is sometimes difficult to find the precise point of focus. But here, the 1:10 reduction gearing makes this easy. Rotating the grippy stainless steel focus wheel moves the 2" tube accurately to a tenth of a millimetre. A half turn of the focus wheel gives a change in focus distance of about one millimetre.
High load capacity for up to 5kg
The particularly advantage of the focuser is its high load capacity, which allows it to take even heavy eyepieces and cameras. The focuser can move freely, unclamped, as its high quality means the 2" tube will not slip, but remain firmly in position.
