A Padded Case Cut for Four-Inch and Six-Inch Refractors

Explore Scientific designed this soft-sided case specifically for the ED127, ED127CF, DAR127 and DAR152 optical tubes, so the interior length is already right and the tube is not rattling around inside a case meant for something else.

The interior measures 42.5 by 6.5 by 8 inches and is lined in light grey nylon with multiple adjustable velcro compartments, so the tube, a diagonal, eyepieces and a finder all travel in their own space rather than against each other.

The padded polyester outer shell has a reinforced back and sides, hand straps for short carries, and a shoulder strap with an embroidered Explore Scientific logo pad for the walk from the car to the observing site.
