Telescope-Dew & Moisture Protection-Apertura 6″ SCT Dew Shield

Apertura 6″ Flexible Dew Shield with Single Notch for Celestron 6″ SCTs

If you’re looking for a dew prevention and stray light protection solution with a worry-free fit, look no further than the Apertura 6″ SCT Dew Shield! This flexible dew shield has been designed for Celestron 6″ SCTs with the single narrow Vixen style dovetail bar, ensuring 6SE, 6″ Evolution, and C6 OTA owners have a snug-fitting premium shield. Made in the USA, the Apertura 6″ SCT Dew Shield is the choice for a quality built, comfortably padded, light-blocking, and easily installable dew shield.

While there is a lot to like about the Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes from Celestron, their large corrector plate (inherent to the SCT design) does make them more prone to dew formation than other telescope designs. This is where a dew shield comes in, allowing SCT owners to gain the dew protection of other telescope designs while keeping all the optical performance they love – and in some cases even improving it! With its long cone built for insulating the corrector plate, the Apertura 6″ SCT Dew Shield can additionally benefit those in areas where stray light from street lights or houses is a concern, by blocking this off-axis light from entering the optics and degrading the view/ image.

Wide Compatibility

The Apertura 6″ SCT Dew Shield is known to fit the following single Vixen dovetail SCTs from Celestron. Please note that in addition to the specific models listed below, the Apertura 6″ SCT Dew Shield fits most other 6″ Celestron SCTs equipped with a single Vixen or narrow style dovetail bar!
