This light shield slips onto our BlackLite tubes. It reduces stray light reaching the focal plane, and provides dew protection by limiting the exposure of the secondary mirror to the sky. A detachable light shield also permits the main tube body to be as short as possible. The shield is lined with black flocking, and includes end trim. The exterior is unpainted, and light tan in color. Custom lengths are available. Made in the U.S.A.
