Adapter rail for Vixen GP prism rails to 3" Losmandy Level

Starway adapter rail for telescopes with Vixen GP prism rails and mounts with Losmandy 3" clamps
... if you want to attach a telescope with GP rails to a mount with 3" Losmandy clamp

Adapter from GP to Losmandy clamp

The adapter rail PS3-V is an elegant solution from TS Optics. You have a telescope with a small prism rail (GP level) such as that used by Vixen, Celestron or Meade and now have a mount with the larger, stable Losmandy quick coupling. You no longer need to dismantle your old prism rail. Simply slide the adapter rail over your old GP rail and the telescope will fit the new Losmandy clamp.

The adapter rail is of course also helpful the other way around. If, for example, you have a mount with a Losmandy 3" clamp and want to quickly mount a telescope with a Vixen rail - the adaptation is done within seconds.

The advantages of the PS3-V:

-- quick conversion from Vixen GP level to Losmandy level and also easy conversion
-- cheaper and simpler solution than the hassle of buying a new 3" prism rail
-- versatile use
-- extremely low construction - only 6mm - so the mount is not exposed to unfavorable leverage conditions
