Our Low-Profile Dual-Speed Hybrid Focuser for 8 and 10 reflectors is the first innovation in telescope focusers in almost a decade. Building on the rock-solid reputation and performance of the well-regarded Crayford design, a helical spur on the two-speed focus mechanism provides even greater positive control of the drawtube while minimizing backlash and slippage. This beautifully machined Hybrid Focuser is a mechanical masterpiece that is a joy to use and gorgeous to behold. Linear bearings and the hybrid Crayford design make the focuser rock-solid, eliminating flexure in the main drawtube. Lock it down for astrophotographic use or leave the tension control loose for fine adjustments during planetary or lunar observations. This focuser is a hefty beast - while low-profile (58mm when fully racked in), it tips the scales at 14oz. and will hold over 16 lbs. (8kg) of payload. Featuring a 2 drawtube, the focuer comes with a 1.25 compression adapter for use with high-power 1.25 telescope eyepieces and accessories. The main drawtube has 8 precision roller bearings to support smooth operation and a knurled focus lock knob. The fine-focus knob boasts an 11:1 reduction in speed for those moments when you need just a minute adjustment to obtain perfect focus.
