Please note: While ZWO is offering a counterweight shaft (see their description below) for their AM3 and AM5 mounts, they will NOT be offering counterweights. You will need to procure your own weights with a 20mm central hole diameter to fit this bar. See the "Related Products & Accessories" section above for compatible weights.
The counterweight and counterweight bar # BC230 are needed when the load on the AM5 mount is over 13kg. Note that ZWO does not recommend the use of additional counterweights exceeding 5 kgs (11 lbs), not counting the weight of this bar. Also note no counterweight safety stop screw is included with this item. A stop screw is included on the AM3 and AM5 mounts and moved to this counterweight shaft when installed. Also works with ZWO's AM3 mount.
Made of oxidation-resistant solid metal, the counterweight bar can be used with multiple mounts with matching M12x1.75 threads.
- Material: 304 stainless steel
- Weight: 0.5kg
- Screw thread: M12 x 1.75 Male
- Size (mm): Length: 230 ± 0.5, Diameter: 20
