in-house inserts



The above chart shows the pull out strength of six separate Dream CFSC coupons with inserts. The average pull out strength of the inserts was 2995 pounds. The stainless steel insert that Dream produces in-house weighs just 29 grams.

The back end of the telescope tube for our 24" telescopes use 12 of these inserts. They secure the backplate to the telescope tube. The backplate holds the M1 support assembly and M1. This entire assembly, including the 24" Dream Cellular lightweight mirror, weighs well under 100 pounds.
