This Farpoint FP355 notched dew shield for the Celestron 9.25-inch SCT fits mounts with a CGE-style bottom dovetail bar. The lower-dovetail clearance notch lets the shield seat flush over the corrector when the bottom dovetail would otherwise interfere. It slips on in seconds, slows radiative heat loss from the corrector plate, and keeps dew off your optics through the longest observing sessions.
Fits These Telescopes
Tube outer diameter: 10.37″ to 10.85″ (263–275 mm)
- Celestron 9.25″ SCT (lower dovetail): Advanced VX 9.25″ SCT, CGX 925, CGEM II 925, CGX-L 925
Have a Celestron 9.25″ SCT on a CPC fork mount or a bare C9.25-XLT OTA without a bottom dovetail bar? Those use the un-notched version — see the FP354 Dew Shield for Celestron 9.25″ SCT.
Why You Need a Dew Shield
The corrector plate on a Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope radiates heat directly into the cold night sky. Once its surface drops below the ambient dew point, moisture condenses on the optic, blurring your view and ending your observing session. A dew shield extends the tube to create a buffer of still air in front of the corrector, dramatically slowing the rate of heat loss.
The Farpoint flexible dew shield is the simplest and most effective dew prevention tool you can own — no power required, no batteries, no warming straps. Just slip it on and observe.
Built to Last
- ABS polymer construction — durable, UV resistant, virtually indestructible
- Black felt lining — kills stray light reflections, won’t scratch the corrector plate
- Hook-and-loop closure — wraps tightly, removes in seconds, stores flat
- Precision-sized to the casting — not a generic one-size tube
- Lower-dovetail clearance notch — seats flush over the CGE-style bottom bar
- Proudly made in the USA
