What mounts are compatible with the Celestron 14-inch CGE Dovetail Bar?

This bar is designed for Celestron mounts that use the wider CGE-style saddle plate. This includes popular models like the Celestron CGX, CGX-L, CGEM II, and CGE Pro. It is also compatible with mounts from other manufacturers that use the Losmandy "D-style" saddle.

Is this the correct dovetail for my Celestron 14" EdgeHD OTA?

Yes. This 14-inch CGE dovetail bar has the correct length and pre-drilled hole pattern to attach directly to the front and rear mounting blocks of a Celestron 14-inch EdgeHD or standard Schmidt-Cassegrain optical tube.

Can I use this 14-inch dovetail bar for a smaller telescope?

While physically possible if you drill new holes, it is not recommended. The hole spacing is specifically designed for the 14-inch Celestron OTAs. Using a bar that is significantly longer than your optical tube can also create balancing issues and snagging hazards in the dark.

What is the difference between a CGE and a CG-5 dovetail bar?

The primary difference is width. The CGE bar (this product) is wider and more robust, designed for heavier telescopes. The CG-5 style bar (also known as a Vixen-style or V-style bar) is narrower and used for smaller, lighter optical tubes like those found on the Advanced VX mount.

Do I need a top-mounted dovetail bar as well?

A top-mounted bar is not required for mounting the telescope itself, but it is highly recommended for astrophotography. A second dovetail on top provides a convenient place to mount accessories like a guide scope, a ZWO ASIAIR, or a Celestron StarSense AutoAlign, keeping your imaging rig organized and balanced.

Does the Celestron 14-inch CGE Dovetail Bar include mounting screws?

Mounting hardware is typically included with the telescope's optical tube assembly. Please check the "In the Box" tab for this product to confirm if any additional hardware is supplied.
