Casady Plates 24" Dovetail Triad Bar
Manufacturer : Casady Plates
Part Number : RC22012411
Similar to tandem bars, but has three mounting pads for three OTAs side-by-side with 10” between optical centers. Can also be used for two OTAs side-by-side with 20” between optical centers. Often used with Paramount ME VersaPlate to allow a TGAD to have clearance for adjustment knobs.
Mount three scopes for imaging. Want to mount two imaging scopes and a guidescope? Or, two scopes and a camera? The Triad Bar is what you want. It is like a 24" tandem bar with a mounting position in the center. It can handle a very heavy OTA in the center because it balances close to the center of rotation. The between scope spacing is the same as a Tandem14 (10" center-to-center). Mounting holes for my saddles, some Astro-Physics saddles, and Takahashi clamshells and EM saddles are built-into the Triad Bar. Stainless steel mounting screws included.
OTAs can be attached to the Tirad24 using Robin Casady saddles and Losmandy D dovetail bars or Takahashi EM clamshell rings and saddles.
