Each bar carries two saddles, sold separately — see our D-size saddles and V-size saddles.

Mind the elbow room. Pick the bar length by the width of your tubes plus working space between them — wider tubes and dew shields need the longer bars.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the saddles included?

No — this is the connecting bar only. It carries two saddles of your choice: D-size, V-size, or one of each, depending on what bars your telescopes carry.

What mount do I need?

A mount with a D-size-compatible saddle — the tandem bar clamps into your mount's saddle just like a regular D-size dovetail bar, then carries the two scope saddles on top.

Which length should I choose?

The 14″ bar suits compact dual setups. Step to the 18″ for more spacing between scopes, or the 22″ for maximum separation with larger tubes and dew shields.
