Narrow Rail Dovetail Conversion Plate

A purpose-built metal adapter designed to retrofit wide-rail telescopes for narrow-rail equatorial mounts. With overall dimensions of 205 x 102 mm, it maintains a compact profile suited for portable and permanent observatory installations alike. The narrow rail section is strictly 43.4 mm wide—guaranteeing full compatibility with standard EQ mount clamps and eliminating fit-related instability. Its robust metal construction supports long-term durability, resisting deformation under load or thermal cycling. The locking system incorporates a pull-out screw head for adaptable tool positioning, and includes an M8 threaded port for mounting counterweights directly on the plate—streamlining balance adjustments and reducing component count in your imaging train.
