This Grey 2.5m Crank and Tilt Parasol is designed for use with outdoor tables with a parasol hole, or free-standing when used with a suitable weighted base. This parasol benefits from a modern grey powder coated pole and grey polyester fabric canopy that has a weatherproof coating and UPF sun protection level 50 for a long life and high protection from harmful sun rays. This product features an easy to operate crank and tilt system which will help you to adjust the canopy position when required. The parasol should be used in conjunction with a weighted parasol base to hold it securely in place (base not included).
