Price: $230.00
This Titan Series cover delivers maximum protection for large, observatory-class telescopes mounted on equatorial (EQ/GEM) mounts.
Size XL is our largest format, designed for extra-long optical tubes with attached accessories. It fits setups with a total length of up to 60 inches (≈ 152 cm) — ideal for 16″ Ritchey-Chrétien, 12″ f/5 Newtonians, long-focus refractors 150–160 mm, and other large telescopes of similar size.
📏 Always measure the full length of your telescope, including all attached components (diagonal, filter wheel, camera, etc.), before ordering.
Titan Covers are engineered for long-term outdoor storage of telescopes and mounts, providing reliable protection against rain, snow, UV exposure, dust, and sudden temperature fluctuations.
Each Titan cover is made from two high-quality fabrics — an outer waterproof fabric and an inner thermal barrier fabric. Together they form a complete protection system for year-round use, whether in a home observatory or under open skies.
All Titan covers feature sealed seams and waxed, water-repellent threads, ensuring complete protection from moisture penetration.
For user convenience, each cover includes:
In certain environments, condensation may form inside any outdoor cover. To help reduce humidity and protect sensitive optics, Titan covers can be ordered with optional accessories:
⚠️ The fan option must be selected at the time of purchase; installation requires factory sealing and cannot be added later.
Additional humidity-control options will be available soon.
Outer Fabric — PVC-Coated Nylon
Inner Fabric — Multi-Layer Thermal Barrier

The illustration shows the actual dimensions of this telescope cover.
These dimensions are slightly larger than the maximum recommended telescope length for this size, to allow for an easy and proper fit.
For example, the Size XL cover is designed for telescopes with a total setup length (tube + accessories) up to 60 inches (≈152 cm) — but the cover itself measures approximately 74 inches (≈188 cm) in length.
This built-in allowance ensures:
All sizes are designed with this margin to accommodate real-world telescope configurations.
To determine if this cover will fit your telescope, measure the total length of your optical tube including any equipment attached to the focuser — such as a diagonal, camera, filter wheel, or other accessories.
📌 For Newtonian telescopes, you typically only need to measure the tube length, as most accessories point downward in the parked position and don’t add to the total length of the setup.
Please keep in mind that the overall size of your telescope depends not just on the optical tube, but also the mount type, configuration, and accessories.
There are countless combinations of telescope + mount + accessories, and it’s simply not possible to offer a pre-made cover for every setup.
That’s why we offer a custom telescope cover service — tailored specifically for your equipment.
We create covers for any telescope type or size, whether it’s a compact refractor or a large observatory-class setup.
