The ZWO PE160 pier extension is compatible with the TC40 mount tripod. It provides an additional 160 mm of height compared to the original height.
The increased height allows the telescope focuser to be positioned more comfortably while reducing the risk of the optical tube colliding with the tripod legs. The rods can be easily removed from the plates, making the setup compact and easy to transport.
The pier extension is made of aluminium alloy, weighs 1 kg, and has a load capacity of 13 kg.
