Player One 2″ Filter Drawer Holder (M48)

Product Overview

The Player One 2″ Filter Drawer Holder is a spare drawer for the Player One Filter Drawer system. It holds a single 2″ mounted filter and drops into either the Filter Drawer MAX or the Filter Drawer MINI, so you can swap filters without unthreading anything from your imaging train. The drawer is machined from aluminum 6061-T6 and accepts filters on an M48 × 0.75 female thread — the standard 2″ filter thread.

Who It's For

This is a good match if you already run a Player One Filter Drawer MAX or MINI and want a second or third drawer preloaded with a different 2″ filter. Keeping each filter in its own drawer turns a filter change into a two-second pull-and-push rather than a re-thread at the focuser.

Key Features & Design

• Holds a 2″ filter: accepts any standard 2″ threaded filter on its M48 × 0.75 female thread.
• Aluminum 6061-T6 body: machined from the same alloy as the drawer system for a consistent, repeatable fit.
• MAX and MINI compatible: the same drawer fits both the Player One Filter Drawer MAX and Filter Drawer MINI.
• Tool-free filter changes: preload each drawer with a filter and swap them at the focuser without breaking the imaging train.

Recommended Uses

Preloading several 2″ filters — for example a luminance filter and a narrowband line — for quick manual changes during a session, and keeping a spare drawer ready so a filter never has to leave its holder.

Compatibility and Accessory Notes

The drawer holds 2″ filters via an M48 × 0.75 female thread and fits the Player One Filter Drawer MAX and Filter Drawer MINI. For 1.25″ filters, the matching part is the 1.25″ drawer holder (M28.5 × 0.6). The filter itself is not included.

Good to Know Before You Order

• Drawer only: this is the drawer component on its own. The Filter Drawer MAX or MINI body is what it slides into, and that body is sold separately.
• 2″ filters: the M48 × 0.75 thread accepts 2″ filters; the 1.25″ drawer holder is the part for 1.25″ filters.
• Filter not included: the drawer ships empty so you can load the filter you want.

Frequently Asked Questions

Bottom Line

In short: a spare aluminum 6061-T6 drawer that holds one 2″ filter on an M48 × 0.75 thread and drops straight into the Player One Filter Drawer MAX or MINI for quick, tool-free filter changes.
