The 10Micron ARIES tripod is designed for the GM1000 / AZ1000 mount family. Its manufacturer table specifies 13 kg tripod weight, an operating height range of 75–115 cm, and a 80 kg tripod support rating.
The construction uses aluminium; maker technical sheet specifies ergal 7075 tubing. The adjustment arrangement is three-stage collapsible legs with strong-grip clutches, providing levelling and height adjustment at the observing site.
The head diameter is 160 mm. The support rating applies to the tripod’s complete supported load, including the mount head and counterweights as well as instrumentation. It is separate from the mount’s own telescope capacity. Use the native interface or a manufacturer-approved adapter for a different mount.
A 10Micron padded transport bag and accessory tray are included. The package also includes an electronics hanger and bubble level. Collapsed length is 85 cm, and the published bag size is Ø230 × 850 mm. Mount, counterweights and telescope are separate equipment.
10Micron manufacturer documentation
10Micron tripod technical sheet
Tripod support load is not the mount instrument capacity: include the mount, counterweights and equipment. Weights, alloy and dimensions follow the technical sheet. Product prose calls the structure Anticorodal, while the technical sheet specifies ERGAL 7075; the discrepancy is explicit.
