Because a saddle plate plays a crucial role in the stability and safety of your telescope system, it's a vital accessory for any astronomy enthusiast. The Medium Vixen Style Saddle Plate from Explore Scientific is designed to securely attach your optical tube assembly (OTA) to its mount, acting as the sole piece of hardware in this crucial connection, much like a saddle between a rider and a horse.
