Lacerta OCTO60 2" focuser for SC

The OctoPlus is the heavily revised successor to the Octo60mic. 

Larger bearings, improved attachment to the base - even more stable! 

The large preload makes the focusing doughy as if dampened by oil, and effectively prevents slipping - a completely new focusing feeling! 

The Octo60mic is a tried and tested focuser, but the development continues - its successor is the OctoPlus. 

The most important innovations: Larger bearings, more stable attachment to the base, extension tube only 0.2mm smaller than the body (no incidence of light). 

The Octo (Latin eight = 8) was developed because we couldn't find a usable, cheap focuser on the market, 

and that is still the case today.

This model has an SC thread on the bottom, so it can be attached on an SC telescope, or some MC scope too.

When we say "stable", we don't mean "hopefully nothing bends", but REALLY stable.

Low profile "Bearing Type" focuser with 8 ball bearings (for Newton)
At these very high loading capacity extracts, is the storage of the extension tube with eight ball bearings. The drive is available with Crayford shaft or with a classic rack, the latter principle has prevailed in the short excerpts built because the brake screw can be placed at the side and at the terminals there is no tipping. The Lacerta Newton extract with extra low profile works in this manner, we recommend it for high loads. 

Ball-bearing "Bearing Type Linear" statements for SC
In this type, the extension tube is attached to the bottom rail on both sides out of two oversized ball bearings and held. Characterized in that the tube is supported only at the bottom or out, the construction can be carried out much more easily than a comparable Crayford focuser. The weight of the 2.7-inch refractors for linear statement is as about 30% lower than similar sized Crayford constructions. Eyepiece has the 2.7-inch refractor for linear pull a M74 external thread and a rotator with this, the connected equipment or the camera can be rotated smoothly and effortlessly into the desired position.
