Counterweight 11 lbs for 19mm Shaft – Secure and Balanced Mount Setup

DESCRIPTION

This 11-pound counterweight (approx. 5 kg) fits mounts with a 19 mm shaft and ensures optimal balance of your optical tube (OTA) and any attached equipment on the RA axis. If you add a camera, guider, or other accessories, you may require additional counterweights to maintain proper balance.

Imbalance can cause wear on your gear system, hinder tracking accuracy, and stress your mount. Proper weight distribution reduces inertia and improves overall performance.

The counterweight features a sturdy knurled locking knob to ensure safe and reliable mounting on the shaft.
