Black 2.7m Tilting Umbrella for Patios and Gardens
The 2.7m octagonal canopy provides practical shade for suitably sized patios, garden seating areas and outdoor dining settings.
Its coordinated black canopy and frame complement timber-look furniture, metal garden settings and contemporary outdoor accessories.
Unlike a cantilever umbrella, this model has a central support pole. Therefore, allow space for the pole and base when arranging your furniture.
With an overall height of 2.38m and a clearance height of 2m, the umbrella offers useful dimensions for planning your outdoor arrangement.
Black 2.7m Tilting Umbrella with UPF 50+ Protection
The canopy is made 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 relaxing, dining or entertaining outdoors during suitable weather conditions.
However, shade does not eliminate all UV exposure. Direct and reflected sunlight can still reach people beneath and around the canopy, so additional sun protection remains important.
45-Degree Tilt Adjustment for Flexible Shade
One of the main features of this black 2.7m tilting umbrella is its adjustable canopy angle.
The 45-degree tilt range allows you to reposition the canopy as the sun changes position throughout the day.
For example, you can adjust the angle to help direct shade towards a suitable patio chair, outdoor dining table or garden seating area.
Always operate the tilt mechanism according to the manufacturer’s instructions and avoid making adjustments in windy conditions.
Black Coated-Steel Frame with Eight Support Ribs
The umbrella features a black coated-steel centre pole and eight steel ribs supporting the octagonal canopy.
Its centre-pole design suits furniture arrangements that accommodate a central support.
The pole measures 38mm in diameter and must be securely fitted into the supplied umbrella base before use.
Check that all fittings are correctly assembled and that sufficient clearance is available around the open canopy.
Convenient Crank Opening and Closing
A crank-operated mechanism allows you to raise and lower the canopy without lifting it manually.
Follow the supplied user manual when operating the crank and adjusting the tilt mechanism.
Before opening, ensure the umbrella is securely supported, the base is properly filled and the canopy is clear of surrounding furniture and structures.
Keep hands and fingers away from moving frame components during operation.
Water-Fillable Base for Your Black 2.7m Tilting Umbrella
This product includes one matching black water-fillable umbrella base.
The single-plate base is made from polyethylene (PE) and is designed to hold water ballast, adding weight when correctly filled and positioned.
An integrated handle helps with moving and positioning the base while empty.
Because the base is supplied with the umbrella, no separate base purchase is required for the intended product configuration.
However, the base must be assembled and filled according to the manufacturer’s instructions. A weighted base does not make the umbrella windproof.
Water-Resistant Polyester Canopy and Care
The black 160gsm polyester canopy is described by the supplier as water-resistant and wear-resistant.
Water-resistant fabric can help manage light moisture exposure during suitable conditions. However, the canopy is not confirmed as waterproof and should not be relied upon during heavy rain or severe weather.
Follow the manufacturer’s fabric-cleaning instructions and allow the canopy to dry before extended storage.
