Baader Ultra Short T-Adapter - 2" SCT(F) Thread/T-2(M)

An f/6.3 focal reducer has a specific back-focus requirement (typically around 105mm) for proper optical correction. The Baader Ultra Short T-Adapter's minimal 7mm optical length maximizes the available space within that budget for your camera, filter wheel, and off-axis guider, which a longer, standard adapter might prevent.

Yes. This adapter is perfect for that application. The 2" female SCT thread screws directly onto the rear cell of the Celestron 8" SCT, and the male T-2 thread connects to the T-ring or main body of most ZWO ASI cameras and their included T-2 spacers.

It solves the problem of running out of back-focus. Many SCT imagers find they cannot reach focus after adding accessories like an off-axis guider because their standard adapter is too long. This ultra-short adapter reclaims that lost space, often making a previously impossible imaging configuration viable.

The adapter features a female 2" SCT thread (2"-24 TPI) on the telescope side and a male T-2 thread (M42x0.75) on the camera/accessory side. This is a standard combination for most SCTs and astronomy cameras.

No. The Baader Ultra Short T-Adapter is machined from high-grade aluminum to precise tolerances. Its single-piece construction and secure threading provide a rigid, flex-free connection, which is essential for maintaining alignment and producing sharp images.

Absolutely. This adapter is a core part of the Baader Astro T-2 System. It allows you to seamlessly integrate your SCT with the extensive range of Baader T-2 extension tubes, changers, and other accessories to build a fully threaded, modular imaging setup.
