ShademakerAstral 16'4" Octagonal Aluminum Commercial Market Patio Umbrella

The nautically-inspired crank-lift Shademaker 16'4" Octagonal Astral Umbrella provides a contemporary profile for commercial or residential applications. Now updated with new modern designed aluminum hub and fittings, this umbrella also features a telescopic mast with commercial-grade aluminum alloy construction in a silver anodized finish. The 3" round center post provides superior support and performance for the hub, fittings and stainless steel crank systems. It comes in A 16'4" size to shade large seating and dining areas. Order a mounting system based on your application - concrete or in-ground. This umbrella is great for areas with wind speeds of up to 40 mph.

The Hercules, a heavy-duty steel base is designed for rooftop, high wind and multiple unit applications (Frame Weight: 200 lbs. + Stone/Plate Weight: 800 lbs. = 1,000 lbs.). An umbrella base of 600 lbs. or more is recommended for free-standing installation. For permanent installation, this umbrella will withstand winds up to 35 mph; with a stand, it will withstand lighter winds only. Awning and marine grade fabrics are used in its fabrication from Sunbrella and O'Bravia in your choice of colors and patterns.

All Shademaker Umbrellas include galvanized Internal mast stem for installation and a Fabric Protective Cover.

All fabrics are made of a solution-dyed yarn, which means the pigments are saturated through the entire thread and are not a print on the surface of the fabric. All fabrics are fade, stain, mold and mildew resistant and are easily cleanable. Shademaker offers both acrylic and polyester fabrics for their umbrella canopies:

• Hose mast and frame with water periodically, more often if installation is in a salty or industrial environment.
• Inspect the installation fitting on a regular basis and tighten if necessary.
• Lubricate the track and slider car mechanism as needed to enhance the ease of operation. We recommend using DuPont Dry Film Lubrication products.

• Clean up spills and stains right away. Spills can be removed by using a clean absorbent cloth.
• For general maintenance, use a soft brush to remove dust and dry soil. Wash down with clean, warm water (i.e. garden hose) every so often to avoid dirt becoming engrained. Allow the fabric to air dry before closing the canopy.
• If a thorough cleaning is necessary, sponge over the fabric using a mild soap solution (2% solution). Rinse well with plenty of water to remove all soap residues.
• Never use detergents, cleaning fluids or solvents. Grease and oil stains may be removed by using turpentine or similar with an absorbent cloth.
• We recommend giving the canopy a good cleaning on a more frequent basis if installed in a location where the canopy is likely to become soiled.
• Use protective canopy cover during storage.

• While Shademaker umbrellas are made to withstand some wind - it is recommended that the umbrellas always be lowered during windy conditions. If it is too windy to enjoy your umbrella, then the umbrella should be closed. Please remove the umbrella during extreme weather conditions to avoid damage that could be caused by flying debris.
• Note: Wind damage (or any damage caused by acts of nature) is never covered under warranty.
• Sufficient base weight must be used to secure umbrellas at all times. Please see our base chart for minimum requirements for free standing base weight. Mounting your umbrella to an existing deck or patio is always the preferred method of securing your umbrella and is recommended above all other methods. We recommend a licensed contractor to secure your Shademaker umbrellas.
