Know before you buy
Yes, at 95 lbs, this cast iron base provides significant weight to keep most standard patio umbrellas stable, even in breezy conditions.
The base tube has an inside diameter of 2 inches and includes a 1.5-inch adapter, making it compatible with most standard umbrella poles on the market.
While the cast iron construction is durable and designed for outdoor use, we recommend covering it or storing it during harsh winter months to maintain the finish and prevent potential surface oxidation.
The base typically arrives in a few pieces that require basic assembly to attach the tube to the base plate. All necessary hardware is included for a straightforward setup.
The cast iron is finished with a protective coating designed for outdoor durability. While it is robust, it is best to avoid dragging it across rough surfaces like concrete to keep the finish looking its best.
