Star Knobs for MiniTower Mount

This three-pack of star knobs with washers is designed for iOptron MiniTower, MiniTower II and MiniTower PRO mounts. Each knob uses a brass screw and black metal construction to secure the mount to a tripod or similar support. The set provides stable, adjustable levelling for astronomical observation and photography.

For MiniTower owners needing secure levelling

Astronomers and photographers who use a compatible iOptron MiniTower mount will benefit from the precise adjustment and vibration reduction these knobs provide. Users of other mount brands or models without the matching thread pattern should look for hardware specific to their equipment.

Brass screw threads on black metal knobs

Every knob in the pack features a robust brass screw that mates with the MiniTower levelling base, delivering a durable metal-to-metal connection. This thread specification is the single detail that determines whether the knobs will fit your mount.

Questions about this item

Do I need to own an iOptron MiniTower, MiniTower II or MiniTower PRO mount for these star knobs to fit?

Yes, the three-pack is made specifically for the level-adjustment points on those three MiniTower models.

Will the brass screws on these knobs thread into the existing tripod sockets on my current MiniTower without modification?

The brass screws are designed to match the factory tripod sockets on MiniTower, MiniTower II and MiniTower PRO mounts, so no re-tapping is required.

After installing the knobs, how can I confirm they are holding the mount securely?

With the mount on the tripod, gently rock the head; there should be no play and the bubble level should stay centred, showing the knobs are clamping firmly.
