Camco Hitch-Mount Umbrella Holder for 2" Receiver — Black, 35" Extension, Alloy Steel

The Camco hitch-mounted umbrella holder secures a patio umbrella to a 2" receiver hitch, extending 35" to add reliable shade for tailgates, camping, beach days, and backyard gear.

Take shade where you need it without drilling or permanent fixtures: this powder-coated alloy steel bracket slides into any standard 2" hitch receiver and locks an outdoor umbrella in place with thumbscrews and a hitch pin. Designed for travel and outdoor use, the unit accepts a wide range of umbrella pole diameters and stows away when not in use—making it a portable, rugged solution for creating shaded space at events or on the road.

How does this holder attach to my vehicle and stay secure?

The bracket installs simply into a 2" receiver hitch using a 5/8" (0.63") hitch pin (included or sold separately depending on retailer). Once inserted, two thumbscrews clamp the umbrella shaft to prevent rotation and slipping during normal use.

• Fits 2" receiver hitches and uses a 5/8" hitch pin for attachment.
• Two thumbscrews lock the umbrella shaft for stability.
• Powder-coated finish reduces corrosion when exposed to weather.

What umbrella sizes will it accept and how do I adapt for different poles?

The holder is built to accept umbrella poles from roughly 1-3/8" up to 2" in diameter. Reducer bushings are pre-installed to fit smaller shafts and can be removed for thicker poles, so you can use most standard patio and market umbrellas without modification.

• Accepts umbrella shafts approximately 1.38"–2.00" in diameter.
• Pre-installed reducer bushings for smaller poles; removable for larger shafts.
• Two thumbscrews add lateral support to keep the umbrella upright.

Will the mount fit tailgates, lift gates, or other rear openings?

The design extends 35" from the hitch pin, creating clearance over most up-and-down tailgates, lift gates, and rear hatches. That extension positions the umbrella well behind the vehicle so it shades people and gear without interfering with opening the tailgate.

• 35" projection from hitch pin for wide clearance behind vehicles.
• Compatible with most tailgates, lift gates and hatches when installed correctly.
• Compact storage profile when removed from the receiver.

What materials and dimensions should I expect for durability and fit?

Camco constructed the holder from powder-coated alloy steel to withstand outdoor exposure and repeated installation. The overall footprint is sized to balance reach and strength for typical umbrella sizes and recreational use.

• Powder-coated alloy steel construction for rust resistance and strength.
• Dimensions: approximately 39.25" L x 11.5" W x 3.5" H.
• Designed for frequent use at tailgates, campsites, beaches, and patios.

Who is this for: The Camco hitch-mounted umbrella holder is ideal for tailgaters, campers, fishers, beachgoers, and anyone who wants a quick, removable shade solution off the back of a vehicle or RV. If you need a durable, non-permanent way to add shaded space at outdoor gatherings without modifying the vehicle, this hitch mount gives straightforward installation, broad umbrella compatibility, and travel-ready construction.
