The tripod of the Explore Scientific Twilight II HD Two-Head Mount w/ Pier Ext. & Tripod has 2" steel chrome-plated adjustable legs. The spreader bar becomes securely seated against the tripod legs via a threaded bolt that makes its way through the center of the spreader bar and into the mount head itself.
