Product description
The Askar 160 APO 1.0 flattener is optimized for the Askar 160APO and provides a very well corrected image field.

The 1.0x flattener does not change the telescope´s focal ratio itself. After connecting with the Askar 160APO, it still maintained a focal ratio of f/7. The flattener corrects field curvature and coma, resulting in flatter field edges and finer star points.

The 1.0x flattener adopts a triplet design and supports a 44 mm full-frame image circle. The overall weight is 0.56 kg.

The back focus from the M48 thread is a standard 55 mm. The front thread is M92*1. At the camera end, it is equipped with M68*1, M54*0.75, and M48*0.75 connectors. At the same time, it has a built-in M48*0.75 2-inch filter thread, which can be directly installed and used.

The overall CNC-machined, both end threaded metal caps prevent ash when not in use.
