Geoptik Jointed Latitude Bolt for HEQ5/NEQ6/Older EQ6

Hi all,
For sale...Geoptik Jointed Latitude (M10) Bolt for HEQ5 / NEQ6 / Older model EQ6 as in first pic (not newer EQ6-R Pro)


Official Blurb...
"This is a handy upgrade for the EQ6 latitude bolts. Sometimes these can bend and be quite difficult to use. These upgraded bolts feature a large hand knob with a joint so they won't bend whilst being used. Much easier to adjust your latitude with your EQ6 to get a precise alignment"


NOTE: This will not fit the newer EQ6R-Pros (much larger bolts) - I used this with my HEQ5-Pro mount to fine tune polar alignment during the ASI Air PA routine...worked well. Recently purchased EQ6R-Pro, so no need for this now. Various websites state it's good to use on the NEQ6 too - please check if it'll work on your mount.



Geoptik logo has fallen off hand dial - other than that, in excellent condition

Cheers
Doug
