The pier height is custom to your application. Minimum height is manually adjustable to +10 inches by moving legs down. See Table Below.

Aluminum anodized construction for corrosion resistance.

Bull�s-eye level is recessed in bottom ring. This feature aids in leveling the pier.

Carry Handle

Special slots in side of pier allow you to hide wires by adding our slot covers.

3" diameter vibration resistant foot pads for maximum ground contact.

Gas assisted leg opening. This feature aids in opening the legs and allows the legs to open to the same position, so if you place it in the same place and in the same orientation, on your viewing platform, you won�t have to re-level the pier.

Custom machined top plate for your mount type is included in price. Adaptable to any telescope mount. Plate can be removed, and a new plate added if you should change telescope mounts.

The Tri-Pier1 can be converted to a permanent adjustable pier by removing adjustment feet from legs. No need to remove the legs. Just fold them in.
