This beach umbrella's unique fabric reflects over 99% of the sun's harmful UV rays, creating a micro-climate beneath the canopy up to 15° F cooler than the surrounding air with UPF 50+, the highest UV protection possible. (UPF is a measure of a fabric's UV blocking properties, similar to SPF ratings for sunscreen.) The umbrella is 6' in diameter, and has a patented vented mesh system that withstands high winds, allowing beachgoers to enjoy the shade without constantly readjusting for wind disturbances. The vents let air pass through upper and lower channels in the Solarteck? nylon fabric. The 7' powder-coated, rust-resistant aluminum pole with tilt-control has durable fiberglass ribs and spreaders for years of reliable use. Includ es a convenient storage bag. 7' H; 45" L in carrying case. (6 lbs.)
