Sorry guys dont know what this bar is called.
I need to purchase for my 14inch Meade sct.
The one in the pics is off my Meade 10inch SCT.
Anyway if you know the name of this bar and where to purchase please let me know.
Thanks in advance
Cheers Steve

Bintel used to sell them, genuine Meade bars, not sure if they still do.

I used a dovetail bar and saddle on my 14" Meade. Screwed a bolt and weight on to the saddle to make my own balancer. Workes well.

It's called the Balance Weight System & as far as I know it's not available in Oz & only ever seen it coming with the weights. I think Huey's suggestion will be the easiest/cheapest solution.
