The Explore Scientific 2" 2x Focal Extender doubles the magnification of your 2" and 1.25" eyepieces.

Built around a telecentric optical design with multiple precision lens elements with EMD-enhanced multi-coatings on all air-to-glass surfaces, the 2" 2x keeps magnification consistent regardless of spacing in the optical path, which is essential for imaging setups with filter wheels, flip mirrors, or off-axis guiders. Edge-blackened elements maximize contrast.

A 1.25" eyepiece adapter is included, giving full compatibility with both barrel sizes.


Key Features
  • Four-element telecentric design with EMD-enhanced fully multi-coated optics
  • Filter thread for color and nebula filters
  • Includes 1.25" eyepiece adapter for dual-format compatibility

Ideal For
  • Wide-field eyepiece owners — double the magnification of your 2" eyepieces
  • Deep-sky observers — pair with a low-power 2" eyepiece for a versatile mid-power option that preserves image quality across the field
  • Astrophotographers — telecentric design maintains consistent magnification through the imaging chain
