The Explore Scientific 2-Inch Dielectric-Coated Diagonal Mirror delivers premium optical performance for refractor owners who demand maximum image brightness, contrast, and mechanical reliability. With a 99% reflective first-surface dielectric mirror, this diagonal enhances your viewing experience by providing bright, high-fidelity visuals ideal for both deep-sky exploration and planetary observation.
Engineered for peace of mind, the double-tapered 2" barrel ensures a snug fit that helps prevent your diagonal from slipping out—even if the focuser thumbscrew loosens. Both the 2" and 1.25" eyepiece holders include compression ring locks, securing your valuable optics without marring barrels or causing tilt.
Lightweight yet durable, this diagonal is built to perform in the field or at your permanent setup. It comes with dust caps to keep your optics protected between sessions.
