ADM Accessories Dual Saddle for Celestron Advanced VX Mounts

Yes, this saddle is specifically engineered as a direct replacement for the Celestron Advanced VX mount (Model 91519). It is designed to bolt on easily using the existing mounting points.

A dual saddle allows you to attach both D-series (Losmandy-style) and V-series (Vixen-style) dovetail plates to your mount. This eliminates the need to swap out your saddle plate when switching between different telescopes or accessories.

While the orange anodized finish is designed to match the aesthetic of your Celestron mount, the knobs are primarily functional. They are oversized to provide better leverage, making it easier to securely lock your telescope in place, even when wearing gloves in cold weather.

Installation is straightforward and typically requires only basic hand tools, such as the hex keys that came with your original mount. You will simply remove the factory saddle and bolt the ADM unit in its place using the existing hardware.

Yes, the ADM saddle is machined to tighter tolerances and features a more robust clamping mechanism than the stock version. This provides a more rigid connection, which is particularly beneficial for astrophotography where stability is critical.
