Takahashi 95mm Tube Holder Ring (FCT-65)

Product Overview

A 95 mm Takahashi tube holder ring for the FCT-65 optical tube. The ring clamps around the tube and provides the interface between the telescope and a Takahashi mount.

Who It's For

This is a good match if you own an FCT-65 and need Takahashi's own holder rather than a generic third-party ring.

Key Features & Design

• 95 mm bore: sized to the FCT-65 tube diameter.
• Takahashi holder ring: matches the mounting pattern and finish of Takahashi tubes and mounts.

Recommended Uses

Mounting the FCT-65 to a Takahashi equatorial mount for visual observing, wide-field imaging, or use as a guide scope on a larger rig.

Compatibility and Accessory Notes

The fit is set by tube diameter: 95 mm, the FCT-65. The same 95 mm bore is shared by other Takahashi tubes in that size class — if you are matching this ring to a different model, send us the telescope and we will confirm it against the bore before you order.

Good to Know Before You Order

Sized to one tube diameter: the 95 mm bore is machined and does not adjust to another diameter.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it difficult to set up?

No — the ring opens, the tube seats inside, and it closes around it; the base bolts to the mount's dovetail or plate.

What tube diameter does it fit?

95 mm — the FCT-65.

Will it fit another Takahashi tube?

If that tube measures 95 mm at the ring position, yes. Tell us the model and we will check it for you.

Bottom Line

A 95 mm Takahashi holder ring for the FCT-65 — the manufacturer's own mounting interface for that tube.
