Product Details

The Agena 13" dovetail bar is made of extruded aluminum and black anodized. This will allow you to couple telescope tubes to a telescope mount. It will fit many CGx and EQx series mounts sold under a variety of brand names. Please check the detailed product dimensions in photo 2 above provided to determine compatibility with your mount or tube rings. Weight = 10.9oz / 309g.

Important note about photo 2 above: Please note that the locations of the four 1/4"-20 holes in the middle of the bar have changed a little bit compared to the photo. We will post a new, revised photo soon. The overall dimensions of the bar and the locations of the four holes at the ends are still correct.

nice little dovetail

This mount will work out perfect under my ota.
I have modified it by tapping the two 1/4 inch thru holes out to 5/16 24 threaded .
Now it is coupled to my rings and my scope will fit on my alt/az tripod as well as my equatorial mount.
This dovetail has a good anodized finish over what appears to be a well machined slab of aluminum.
I anticipate many years of service.

WORKED WELL FOR SPECIAL BUILD

I ~needed~ a rail to slide 70mm binos fore-aft. Used this "upside-down", with a GSO citcular base above. Very good.

Agena V Series Vixen-Style Dovetail Bar (8.3") Long # EQ5DTB8

I have a telescope that I could not find rings for and used this dovetail bar and hose clamps from an auto store. Works great, I now can use on my vixenmount tripod and it also now goes on my tripod with standard camer adapter. I love it!

No limits

Mounted this dovetail on my Orion ED80 with rings. Now I have 5 inches of dovetail on the backend .... this let's me also mount the ED80 on my SE mount and not worry about hitting the base when heading toward the Zenith. I had a spliced dovetail arrangement before with 2 8inch dovetails but this is the way I see as the best.

Q: Will this work on a celestron cgem mount?

Agena AstroProducts

05/07/18

A: No. Please see [https://www.celestron.com/blogs/knowledgebase/what-dovetail-bars-are-used-with-various-celestron-mo..Vixen-style rails are much slimmer than CGE/Losmandy rails.

04/28/18

Q: Your sketch does not indicate the distance from the two holes on one end to the two holes on the other. Are they close to 12 1/4 inches apart? Also are they about .875” apart with respect to the long centerline. Thanks

Agena AstroProducts

05/03/18

A: 1) Distance between holes from one end to other = 335 - 2x13 = 309mm (12.17").
2) The center-to-center distance between the 2 screws on either side is 22.2mm (0.87").

04/25/18

Q: Will this dovetail bar bolt up to an 8” edge hd and fit in the advanced box mount?

Agena AstroProducts

04/26/18

A: (1) Please see the detailed dimensions provided in the 2nd item photo on our site and compare it with your scope tube to see if this might work. We do not have such compatibility info for specific scopes. (2) Yes - this is a Vixen-style bar and it will fit the Advanced VX mount.
