Sky-Watcher 288 mm Tube Rings (Set of 2)

Sky-Watcher 288 mm Tube Rings - Set of 2

Looking for reliable tube rings for your telescope with a 288 mm tube diameter? Genuine Sky-Watcher tube rings with a 288 mm inner diameter are exactly what you need. This set of two rings gives you a firm, secure hold on the tube when attaching it to a mount - no improvising, no ill-fitting alternatives that are off by a millimetre. They are compatible with telescopes such as the Sky-Watcher 250/1200.

A precise fit that matters

The 288 mm inner diameter is designed to fit snugly around a 288 mm tube, with just enough clearance for easy installation. Once you tighten the screws, the tube sits completely firm with no play whatsoever. This matters more than it might seem - every millimetre of looseness will show up during long exposures or when observing at high magnification. Genuine Sky-Watcher parts are manufactured to tight tolerances and tested directly with the tubes they are made for.

More uses than just a replacement part

This set of Sky-Watcher tube rings for a 288 mm tube works well as a replacement when your existing rings are damaged, but it also comes in handy for custom builds or mount upgrades. Many experienced amateur astronomers use genuine rings when moving a tube to a different mount - for example, switching to a more robust equatorial or altazimuth platform.

Why choose genuine Sky-Watcher accessories

Using original parts from the manufacturer removes a lot of uncertainty. You do not need to worry about compatibility, file parts to make them fit, or explain why the tube slipped off the mount. Sky-Watcher is one of the world's leading manufacturers of astronomical optics, and its accessories are designed to perform reliably in the field and under demanding observing conditions. If your telescope belongs to the Sky-Watcher family with a 288 mm tube, these genuine tube rings are the right choice for a safe and precise hold.
