I have Baader prism diagonal (#2456095) with T-2 "male" thread.
I need a 2 inch EP holder with T-2 "female" thread. Not sure such EP holder exists? Otherwise I should get a thread coverter (T-2 female to 2 inch male) and a 2-in EP holder (with 2 inch female thread)?

You may find a T thread (female) to SCT thread then add a SCT to 2” adaptor??

Have you been onto the Baader website to see the configuration?

Oh thanks Ken, Matt, Hans. There is one! I have Baader 1.25-in EP clamp (with T-2 femal thread) but want to use 2-in EP as well.

So get the Baader 2" ClickLock Eyepiece Clamp (#2956242) and the Baader 2" to 1¼" ClickLock Reducer (#2956214). This combination will allow you to use both 1.25 & 2 inch eyepieces.

As in the product description 2" Deluxe Clamp / Eyepiece Holder for SCT's with 2" SC female thread I am not sure this item would fit your T2 Diagonal as the Eyepiece Holder apparently has a SC thread and not the T2 thread you require. You may need a Baader T-2 to SCT Thread Expanding Ring to get the Eyepiece Holder to fit.

Thanks Hans, yes you are absolutely right. So if I get this thread converter should fit my diagonal?

Yes, that adapter should work. Just run all the part numbers by the vendor before you buy just to get their confirmation.

Thanks a lot. I'm enquiring Baader in Germany. If no one comes up with good offer (lol), I will place an order. Cheers, Hisanori
