The Altair pier adapter is used to secure the EQ8 mount or the GM1000 to your Altair SkyShed Pier (early pre 2014) or Starbase tripod.
It can also be used for attaching the mount to a self-built pier. The smooth surface makes adjustment easier.
Product feature summary:

- Fits the Altair/SkyShed 8” Steel Adjustable Pier or Starbase tripod without any drilling.
- For attaching to the pier, six stainless steel M8 nuts are necessary (user supplied)
- The existing hole pattern on Altair Piers is the same as the Meade LX200.
- The Altair pier adapter be used on any flat surface with the correct holes, such as a home made pier of your own.
