Model: flo_m48-t2_adapter
The Astro Essentials M48 to T thread adapter converts the M48 male thread found on Skywatcher reducers and flatteners to a regular male M42 T2 thread.
Precision CNC machined to a high standard and strong enough to carry heavy setups without flexing.
Convenient knurled grip for easy fitting and removal.
Matt-black anodising to reduce reflections.
Adds 10 mm to optical path.
Female M48 thread one side, male T thread the other. Approximately 5mm threads each side.
It does the job, well constructed with good knurling. It only gets 4 stars as this item needed a bit of bedding in to fit smoothly. compared with other T2 spacers I have from FLO.
I needed this to connect my 383L and EFW-2 onto my WO RedCat51. It does the job perfectly, and delivery was nice and quick as usual from FLO.
Although the product worked, it wasn't the best build quality. The threads are not great and didnt give confidence in it holding up my camera.Due to the everlasting clouds in the night sky I have yet to use it in anger
Structurally well made. The T2 thread was tight but useable with the addition of a spot of oil. Not a problem as the assy. will be used permanently assembled but could be a problem if regular dismantling required
This is just what I needed to connect to my filter wheel to the Skywatcher 80mm field flattner on my Orion ED80Tried using the Baader adapter before but the threads were too short causing the filter to twist off and also difficult to remove.This one is a lot betterPlenty of thread so no filter wheel twisting off and a good grip on the outside ring making it easy to remove.
