Orion Optics UK Angled & Anodised Finder Bracket Holder

This bracket is specifically designed to allow owners of Orion Optics UK ODK telescopes to mount different or upgraded finderscopes onto their optical tube. It serves as the necessary adapter between the telescope and the new finder's mounting foot.

This holder is explicitly designed for the Orion Optics UK ODK (Optimised Dall-Kirkham) series of telescopes. It ensures a perfect fit with the mounting points provided on the ODK optical tubes.

An angled bracket offers superior ergonomics. On a compact instrument like an ODK, a straight bracket can place the finderscope very close to the main tube or other accessories. The angled design of this Orion Optics UK holder moves the finder's eyepiece to a more accessible position, making it more comfortable to look through, especially when the telescope is pointed at high altitudes.

Anodising is an electrochemical process that creates a hard, corrosion-resistant oxide layer on the surface of the metal. For this bracket, it provides a durable, scratch-resistant finish that protects the component from dew and moisture while matching the professional look of your Orion Optics UK telescope.

This bracket provides the secure base on the telescope tube itself. You will still need to ensure that the finderscope you are purchasing has a compatible mounting foot or dovetail that fits into this holder. This component solves the telescope-side of the connection.

Mounting hardware is not specified as an included item. Typically, you would use the existing screws on your ODK telescope's tube, or the screws supplied with your new finderscope.
