Daniel T. ★★★★★

I’ve had trouble with other weights wobbling during tracking, but this 7.5 lb. one threads smoothly onto the AZ-EQ5 shaft and stays rock solid. It balances my 10" reflector perfectly, making setup much quicker.

Abigail U. ★★★★★

Finally, a weight that actually stays put on the shaft without any wobble mid-session. The 7.5 lbs feels perfectly balanced for my setup, and the machining is smooth enough that sliding it on and off takes no effort at all.

Carter N. ★★★★★

The threads are clean and fit perfectly onto the AZ-EQ5 shaft without any wobble. It’s solidly cast and balanced my C8 with a bit of room to spare on the shaft.
