AsterOutdoor 6' x 10' Rectangle Sun Shade Sail – Graphite 95% UV Block, Breathable 180 GSM Canopy

The AsterOutdoor 6' x 10' rectangle sun shade sail is a durable, breathable polyethylene canopy that blocks up to 95% of UV and creates comfortable shaded space for patios, yards, decks, and outdoor events.

This rectangular shade sail in graphite blends clean design with practical performance. Made from high-density 180 GSM polyethylene with reinforced stitched seams and stainless steel D-rings, it’s built to resist sun exposure while allowing air to pass through so spaces stay cooler and ventilated. The sail ships lightweight and compact with ropes for installation and fits many common fix points around a home, garden, or public setting.

How much sun protection does this shade sail provide?

The AsterOutdoor canopy is engineered to filter the majority of direct UV radiation while remaining breathable. Its high-density weave delivers strong sun-blocking performance without sealing off airflow, so shaded areas feel cooler and brighter than solid covers.

• Filters up to 95% of UV rays
• 180 GSM polyethylene for reliable sun defense
• Breathable fabric reduces heat buildup under the sail
• Available in neutral graphite to reduce glare

How easy is it to install and maintain the sail?

Setup is straightforward with stainless steel D-rings at each corner and the supplied polyethylene ropes; measure between D-rings and leave a gap for hardware. For upkeep, simple rinsing or gentle scrubbing with mild soapy water removes grime—avoid machine washing and exposure to harsh chemicals like chlorine that can accelerate wear.

• Includes 4 x 5-foot ropes and instructions for rectangle setup
• D-rings at each corner for quick attachment to anchors
• Leave 1.5–2 ft between sail edge and anchor for fittings
• Hand-clean with hose and mild soap; do not machine wash

Will this sail withstand outdoor conditions and stay taut?

The panel’s rectangular shape with subtly curved sides improves tension distribution and reduces sagging, while reinforced seams and stainless hardware handle normal outdoor stresses. Like any fabric canopy, longevity depends on proper tension, correct anchoring, and avoiding exposure to corrosive chemicals.

• Curved-edge design increases pull strength and reduces droop
• Stitched seams and stainless steel D-rings for durability
• Lightweight yet strong 180 GSM polyethylene fabric
• Compact and portable—easy to remove for storage in harsh weather
