11-inch Dovetail Bar for CGE Mounts

The Celestron 94219 is an 11-inch wide dovetail plate designed to secure a Celestron C11 optical tube to CGE or CGX equatorial mounts. It provides a rigid mounting platform for visual astronomy and astrophotography setups. The red anodised finish resists corrosion during outdoor observing sessions.

Replaces lost or damaged CGE dovetail plates

This bar restores the factory mounting interface when the original plate is missing, bent or stripped. The upgrade is worth it when switching from a narrow Vixen-style rail to the wider CGE profile for improved flex resistance with heavy 11-inch Schmidt-Cassegrain tubes. It does not adapt to Losmandy D or custom-width saddles.

Simple bolt-on installation with standard hardware

The plate uses existing threaded holes in the C11 tube ring, so no drilling or tapping is required. Alignment pins on CGE/CGX saddles engage matching recesses to prevent rotation under load. The most common issue is forgetting to tighten both saddle clamps evenly, which can shift the tube during meridian flips.

Questions about this item

How wide is the 11-inch dovetail bar for CGE mounts?

The bar is 11 inches long and built to the wide CGE profile that matches Celestron CGE and CGX mounts.

What hardware is needed to attach the 94219 dovetail bar to my optical tube?

Use the existing mounting holes on your telescope tube; the bar aligns with standard Celestron hole spacing and secures with the supplied bolts.

Will the red anodised finish on the 94219 dovetail bar wear off and need touch-up?

The anodised coating is durable for normal field use; scratches are cosmetic only and do not affect the bar's structural grip.
