Product Overview

The 114WB is a Takahashi tube holder sized to a 114 mm tube diameter, listed for the FCT-114. Takahashi's holder designations carry the bore in the model name — the 114 in 114WB is the 114 mm tube diameter it is machined for.

Who It's For

This is a good match if you own an FCT-114 and need Takahashi's own holder for it.

Key Features & Design

  • 114 mm bore: sized to the FCT-114 tube diameter.
  • Takahashi holder: matches the mounting pattern and finish of Takahashi tubes and mounts.

Recommended Uses

Mounting an FCT-114 to a Takahashi equatorial mount for visual observing or astrophotography.

Compatibility and Accessory Notes

The fit is set by tube diameter: 114 mm, the FCT-114. Takahashi does not publish a wider compatibility list for this holder, so if you are matching it to a different tube, send us the model and we will check it against the bore before you order.

Good to Know Before You Order

Sized to one tube diameter: the 114 mm bore is machined and does not adjust.

We are still waiting on a product photo: Takahashi's listing for this holder carries no image, so the page shows none rather than a picture of a different model. Ask us and we will describe or photograph the item in stock for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it difficult to set up?

No — the holder opens, the tube seats inside, and it closes around it; the base bolts to the mount.

What tube diameter does it fit?

114 mm — the FCT-114.

Will it fit another Takahashi tube?

If that tube measures 114 mm at the ring position, yes. Tell us the model and we will check it.

Bottom Line

A 114 mm Takahashi tube holder for the FCT-114 — the manufacturer's own mounting interface for that tube.
