Charcoal 2.7m Tilting Umbrella for Patios and Gardens
The 2.7m octagonal canopy makes this umbrella an attractive choice for suitably sized patios, garden seating areas and outdoor dining settings.
Its charcoal canopy and black frame complement timber-look furniture, metal garden settings and neutral outdoor accessories.
Unlike a cantilever umbrella, this model features a central support pole. Therefore, allow space for both the pole and base when arranging furniture beneath the canopy.
The overall height of 2.38m and stated clearance height of 2m help you assess the available space before purchasing.
Charcoal 2.7m Tilting Umbrella with UPF 50+ Protection
The octagonal canopy is manufactured from 160gsm polyester fabric with a stated UPF 50+ rating.
This indicates a high level of protection against ultraviolet radiation passing through the rated canopy material.
As a result, the umbrella can help create a shaded area for outdoor dining, relaxing or entertaining during suitable weather conditions.
However, shade does not eliminate all UV exposure. Reflected sunlight and direct sunlight entering from outside the canopy can still reach people beneath it.
For this reason, additional sun protection remains important when spending time outdoors.
45-Degree Tilt Adjustment for Flexible Shade
One of the main features of this charcoal 2.7m tilting umbrella is its adjustable canopy angle.
The 45-degree tilt range allows you to reposition the canopy as sunlight changes direction.
For example, you can adjust the angle to help provide shade towards a suitable patio chair, garden lounge or outdoor dining table.
Always operate the tilt mechanism according to the supplied instructions and avoid making adjustments during windy conditions.
Black Coated-Steel Frame with Eight Support Ribs
The umbrella features a black coated-steel centre pole with eight steel ribs supporting the octagonal canopy.
The 38mm pole forms the central supporting structure and must be correctly installed into the supplied base before use.
Meanwhile, the charcoal fabric and black frame create a coordinated appearance that suits both contemporary and traditional outdoor furniture.
Check that all fittings are secure and sufficient clearance is available around the fully opened canopy.
Convenient Crank Opening and Closing
The umbrella features a crank-operated mechanism for opening and closing the canopy.
Instead of manually raising the canopy, operate the crank according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Before opening, ensure the supporting base is properly filled and the umbrella is securely positioned on a firm, level surface.
Keep hands and fingers away from moving frame components during operation.
Water-Fillable Base for Your Charcoal 2.7m Tilting Umbrella
This product includes one matching black water-fillable umbrella base.
The single-plate base is constructed from polyethylene (PE) and designed to hold water ballast, providing additional weight when properly filled.
An integrated handle helps you position or relocate the base while empty.
Because the base is included, you do not need to purchase a separate base for the supplied umbrella configuration.
However, always follow the manufacturer’s filling and installation instructions. A weighted base does not make the umbrella windproof or suitable for strong winds.
Water-Resistant Charcoal Polyester Canopy
The 160gsm polyester canopy is described by the supplier as water-resistant and wear-resistant.
It can help manage light moisture exposure during suitable weather conditions. However, water resistance is not equivalent to waterproofing.
Do not rely on the umbrella for shelter during heavy rain, thunderstorms or severe weather.
For ongoing care, follow the manufacturer’s cleaning instructions and allow the canopy to dry before prolonged storage.
