Dimensions of older GSO baffle tube
Mark, dimensions of the old-style baffle tube and pic.
(Dimensions +/- 1mm)
Overall length 150mm
Main tube length ~120.5mm, diameter 71mm
Step 1 length ~14.5mm, diam 69mm
Step 2 Length ~13.2mm, diam 67mm
The new plastic extension is just a push-fit into the mouth of the top step. I plan on using just a smidgin of Loktite or similar to ensure it doesn't want to fall out.
The tube is fully internally micro-ribbed and has threads at the bottom to attach to the mirror retaining ring.
Also, note in the pic the six attachment holes in the CF tube that align with the six threaded ears on the backplate. Two holes under each of the top and bottom mounting rail attachments plus one either side.
Carefully remove these six screws and the complete backplate + mirror + baffle tube assembly can be easily pulled out of the CF tube. Make sure you do it on some soft surface in case you slip/drop it!
