TEC Tube Rings are extremely lightweight and durable, with a set of
two rings for an APO140FL F/7 weighing under 750g. The Tube Rings are CNC machined for clean edges with black anodized aluminum that is scratch resistant. They are outfitted with adjustable stainless-steel latches and are able to fit the TEC Dovetail Plates, Losmandy Plates, and AP Plates for secure mounting. Each Ring contains an upper base, an adjustable latch, and a lower base. The upper base of the Tube Rings also connects to the TEC Carry Handles for easy transport.

The 160FL Tube Rings are designed to fit the APO160FL F/7 and APO160FL F/11 telescope models.
