Takahashi 80mm Tube Rings (80WB)

Product Overview

The 80WB is a Takahashi tube ring set sized to an 80 mm tube diameter, used to carry an optical tube on a Takahashi mount. Takahashi's ring designation carries the tube diameter in the model name — the 80 in 80WB is the 80 mm bore.

Who It's For

This is a good match if you have a Takahashi optical tube with an 80 mm tube diameter and need the matching Takahashi ring set rather than a generic third-party ring.

Key Features & Design

• 80 mm bore: sized to an 80 mm optical tube diameter.
• Takahashi ring set: matches the mounting pattern and finish of Takahashi optical tubes and mounts.

Recommended Uses

Mounting an 80 mm-diameter Takahashi optical tube to a Takahashi equatorial mount for visual observing or astrophotography.

Compatibility and Accessory Notes

The fit is set by tube diameter: 80 mm. Takahashi does not publish a per-telescope compatibility list for this ring set, so rather than guess at the model list, send us your telescope model and we will confirm the bore against it before you order.

Good to Know Before You Order

Sized to one tube diameter: this ring set is machined for 80 mm tubes and does not adjust to another diameter.

Compatibility is by measurement, not by model name: if you are unsure of your tube's diameter, we can check it against the ring for you — just tell us the telescope.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it difficult to set up?

No — the rings clamp around the tube and bolt to the mount's dovetail or plate in the usual way.

What tube diameter does it fit?

80 mm.

Will it fit my telescope?

If your tube measures 80 mm at the ring position, yes. Send us the model and we will confirm it.

Bottom Line

An 80 mm Takahashi tube ring set — the right choice when your tube measures 80 mm and you want Takahashi's own rings on a Takahashi mount.
