TS Optics 2″ 91% diagonal mirror with compression ring
Looking for a star diagonal that will not let you down even during demanding visual observation sessions? The TS Optics 2″ diagonal mirror with a compression ring is exactly what you need. It combines high reflectivity, universal compatibility and a robust all-metal construction - all in one elegantly designed accessory for your telescope.
Key features
91% reflectivity for a brighter image
The diagonal mirror with 91% reflectivity delivers a noticeably brighter image compared to standard diagonals with reflectivity of around 88-89%. This difference is especially appreciated by deep-sky observers, where every extra percent of light matters. The all-metal construction ensures long service life and mechanical stability - no plastics, no play, no unpleasant surprises during temperature changes under the night sky.
Built-in M48 filter thread
The 2″ input barrel is equipped with an internal M48 filter thread, which is great news for anyone who likes to use astronomy filters. Filters screw directly into the diagonal, eliminating the need to carry additional adapters. The output side features a removable 2″/1.25″ adapter, allowing the diagonal to be used with both 2″ and 1.25″ eyepieces - making it compatible with virtually all of your existing accessories.
Brass compression ring - gentle and precise eyepiece retention
One of the key features of this diagonal is the brass compression ring system. Unlike traditional thumbscrews - which can leave marks on an eyepiece barrel or cause slight misalignment - the compression ring holds the eyepiece evenly and gently around its entire circumference. The result is precise centring, minimal risk of damage to expensive eyepieces and reliable retention even when handling the telescope. Brass as a material prevents seizing and ensures smooth operation throughout the lifetime of the accessory.
A universal choice for every observer
The TS Optics 2″ 91% compression ring diagonal is a well-thought-out solution for anyone who wants to get the most out of their telescope - whether observing planets, double stars or nebulae. The compression ring combined with high reflectivity and M48 filter thread makes it one of the most versatile choices in this category of accessories. An investment that pays off.
