Product Overview
The SVBONY medium dovetail clamp (F9144C/D) is an aluminium-alloy clamp that holds a dovetail plate and connects a telescope or camera to a tripod or mount. It is rated for loads up to 10 kg and locks with a brass-tipped screw that grips the plate without marring it. The underside has eight mounting holes: five M6, one 1/4″ and two M8, with the two M8 holes 35 mm apart. The clamp's dovetail opening is 39.5 mm at the top, 45 mm at the bottom and 12 mm deep. It weighs 193 g (6.83 oz) and comes in red or silver.
