When choosing a solar filter you should mainly take into consideration your telescope's tube diameter and not the aperture. Please measure your telescope before buying this filter and carefully compare your results with the values provided in the Specifications table. Check the filter's inner diameter if it is to cover your tube's front end and the outer diameter if it is to be placed inside the tube.
