  • Universal L Bracket, Couplers, and Bolts Kit

    This Universal L Bracket, Couplers, and Bolts Kit provides a complete mechanical interface for attaching Pegasus Astro stepper motor focusers to a wide variety of telescopes. The kit includes a versatile L-bracket, 5 solid motor couplers to fit focuser shafts from 4mm to 8mm, and all the necessary metric hardware to secure the motor.

    A Flexible Mounting Platform for Pegasus Focusers

    The core of the kit is the universal L-bracket, designed with both narrow and wide sections to accommodate different focuser body designs and telescope mounting points. This flexibility eliminates the guesswork in achieving a rigid, perfectly aligned connection between the motor and the focuser drawtube. The included assortment of metric screws and washers ensures you have the right hardware on hand to complete the installation without a trip to the hardware store.

    5 Couplers: Secure Connection for Focuser Shafts from 4mm to 8mm

    A secure mechanical link to the focuser shaft is critical for precise, repeatable autofocus. This kit includes 5 different solid motor couplers, covering shaft diameters from 4mm to 8mm in 1mm increments. This range covers the vast majority of stock and aftermarket focusers, ensuring a zero-slip connection that translates the motor's fine steps directly into drawtube movement.

    • Solid Brass Construction: Provides a rigid, durable connection that will not flex or slip under load.
    • Wide Compatibility: The 5 included couplers ensure a match for nearly any focuser shaft you are likely to encounter.
    • Simple Installation: Each coupler slides onto the focuser shaft and is secured with set screws, providing a direct mechanical link to the Pegasus motor.
  • How do I know if the Universal L Bracket kit will fit my telescope's focuser?

    This kit is designed to be universal for Pegasus Astro stepper motor focusers. The L-bracket's dual narrow/wide design and multiple mounting holes are intended to adapt to a wide range of focuser bodies, such as those found on Schmidt-Cassegrains, refractors, and Newtonians. The key is ensuring you have a clear mounting point on your focuser to attach the bracket.

    What are the 5 different motor couplers in the kit for?

    The 5 couplers are included to match the diameter of your telescope focuser's pinion shaft. The kit covers shafts from 4mm to 8mm, which addresses the most common sizes used by telescope manufacturers. You will select the one coupler that provides a snug fit on your specific focuser shaft for a no-slip connection.

    Will this Universal L Bracket kit work with focus motors other than Pegasus Astro?

    While the bracket and couplers are standard components, this kit is specifically sold and tested for compatibility with Pegasus Astro stepper motor focusers. The mounting hole pattern on the L-bracket is designed to match Pegasus motors. Use with other brands is not guaranteed and may require modification.

    Why does the L-bracket have both a narrow and wide part?

    The dual-profile design increases the bracket's versatility. Some focusers may have clearance issues or mounting points that are better served by the narrow section, while others may require the stability or hole pattern of the wide section. This allows you to orient the bracket in the way that best fits your specific telescope setup.

    What tools will I need to install this Universal L Bracket kit?

    You will typically need a set of metric hex keys (Allen wrenches) to tighten the screws for the bracket and the set screws on the motor coupler. The specific sizes will depend on the screws you use from the included assortment.

    Will the couplers in the Universal L Bracket kit fit a focuser with a 6.35mm (1/4") shaft?

    The kit includes couplers in 1mm increments (4mm, 5mm, 6mm, 7mm, 8mm). A 6.35mm shaft will likely be too loose in the 7mm coupler and too large for the 6mm coupler. This kit is designed for integer millimeter shaft sizes and may not be suitable for imperial-sized shafts without modification.
