Explore Scientific Diagonal Mirror 2" 99% Product description

  1. Superior Reflectivity: Features 99% dielectric coatings that deliver an exceptionally bright and high-contrast image. This ultra-high reflectivity ensures that nearly all incoming light reaches your eyepiece, resulting in clearer views of even faint celestial objects.

  2. Advanced Construction: Constructed with a carbon fiber body, this diagonal provides superior thermal stability and durability compared to traditional metal designs. Its lightweight nature also minimizes stress on your telescope's focuser, ensuring precise alignment throughout observation sessions.

  3. Secure Eyepiece Retention: The 2-inch eyepiece holder utilizes a compression ring system, which securely grips your eyepieces and accessories across a wider surface area. This prevents marring of your valuable optics while providing a snug fit and reducing the risk of accidental drops.

  4. Enhanced Versatility: Designed to attach directly to any telescope or focuser that accepts 2-inch accessories, this diagonal maximizes compatibility with a wide range of telescopes and eyepieces. Its internal threading also allows for the direct attachment of 2-inch filters, further enhancing your observational capabilities.
