The Vixen APZ Mount is a highly versatile and user-friendly alt-azimuth telescope mount designed to deliver smooth and stable tracking for your astronomical observations. Built with a modular design, it can easily be upgraded or transformed into a highly portable equatorial mount to suit your evolving stargazing needs.

Key Features

Simple and easy-to-use alt-azimuth design featuring manual friction control for quick targeting and dual-axis slow-motion knobs for precise tracking.

Robust build with a generous loading capacity of up to 8kg, making it suitable for larger optical tubes such as a 200mm aperture VMC telescope.

Equipped with six sealed ball bearings in the movable parts to prevent dust ingress and ensure exceptionally smooth rotation.

Modular construction allows seamless integration with Vixen Advanced Polaris components, offering an easy upgrade path to an equatorial setup.

Features high-quality aluminium alloy altitude and azimuth axes with durable brass worm shaft gears for long-lasting reliability.

With its lightweight design and included counterweight, this mount provides the perfect balance of portability and rigid stability for astronomers on the move. Whether you are conducting quick terrestrial viewing or detailed celestial tracking, the APZ mount offers an exceptional and reliable observing experience.
