Stellarvue Tripods

Our tripods are designed to be light, compact and stable. Our Surveyor’s tripod is designed to be light yet stable, holding telescopes up to 115 mm in size. This tripod is significantly more solid than import aluminum tripods. Combined with our M2 mount head and heavy duty column, damping time is reduced to practically zero. This tripod and mount combination allows the user to glide around the sky effortlessly. C17 TT M2 MEC2 150

Our new travel tripod is made of stainless steel and a thick plate of 6061-t6 aluminum cnc machined here. This mount is extremely portable, only 21” long in travel mode. This tripod, the M2 mount and column may be easily carried in our C18 case and set up in minutes. This is the ultimate travel set up for our telescopes from 80 mm - 115 mm.

Aluminum Tripod - Stable yet light in weight

Stellarvue heavy duty Surveyor's tripod with Appleply Tray. Just open the tripod legs, part way, extend the tray slots a little and pop it into place. Tripod has a 59 mm recess at top and a 5/8”-11 mounting bolt. Attaches directly to the M2 Mount when attached to the MEC2 column. Tripod is 36” - 58.5” in height when in use. Legs are 40” in length when retracted. For the best stability keep the tripod under 48” in height. Remember to add the height of the mount and column (the M2 mount and column adds 18” to total height). Tripod with tray weighs only 11.6 pounds but is extremely stable thanks to its over-sized top. It is much more stable than import aluminum tripods. Total weight of TA with M2 mount and column is about 19.2 pounds.
