    Will fit the Explore Scientific ED80 if you replace the stock screws with 6mm m5 screws. Itll overhang on both sides but a small strip of electric tape to keep it from scratching is all you need.

    Works perfect on my older 8” celestron sct

    This bracket fits perfectly on a Celestron CPC 1100 Edge HD, perfect! I needed a vixen style bracket for my ZWO guide scope and at this time I dont think could have made a better choice.

    Perfect finder shoe for 8 SCT scope. I used this on my Celestron CPC800 and found that the elongated mounting holes were just shy by about 1-2 mm to match up with the scope. The shoe is made of relatively soft metal and I simply used a round file to extend one hole slightly. The two set screws ensure that the guidescope Ill use is firmly in place and wont move during set up and tear down. I looked long and hard for a suitable shoe and this one is it, albeit with a minor effort on my part. I suspect it fits perfectly on other 8 scopes. Im quite happy with my selection.

    I bought this as part of a mounting rig for a guide scope for a star tracker. This particular part is of high quality and works well.

    This was for a C8 finder scope and the spread for the mounting screws was perfect.

    Perfect bracket to replace the propetary one on my explore scientific ED102. Very well made.

The base can be used on telescope that do not themselves have a base, or be used in other different position on the telescope as an additional base.

Precision machined finder shoe base in matte black, made of high strength aluminum with anodizing aluminium process, durable for long time use. The aluminum material makes the product lighter and easier to carry.

The base forms two linear constraints on each tube radius of 130-400 mm in diameter, which gives maximum stability. The base also carries small guidance/CCD guider without any problem.

Two large knurled thumbscrews makes it easy to install: Bases feature two large thumbscrew locks to secure your finder scope or reflex sight in place, even while wearing gloves. Just put it on the optical tube and tighten the screws.

There are two elongated holes on this base and a single countersunk hole for screws up to M5 in the middle. Two screws are on the side of base. The distance between the center points of the screw holes is 24 to 41 mm.
