TANG 12' x 14' Rectangle Sun Shade Sail — Gray HDPE Canopy, UV Blocking & Breathable

TANG’s 12' x 14' gray sun shade sail is a durable, breathable outdoor canopy that reduces sunlight and UV exposure while creating a cooler, shaded area for patios, decks, and gardens.

This rectangular shade sail is knitted from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) fabric designed to resist tearing and fading while allowing air to circulate. The sail ships slightly stretchy and features double-stitched edges and reinforced D-rings for secure anchoring. Curved edges are built into the design to improve tension and avoid sagging when installed taut; the finished mounted dimensions will vary slightly from the unstretched size.

How much sun and UV protection can I expect from this sail?

The TANG shade cloth is formulated to block up to 95% of harmful UV rays while still permitting airflow to reduce trapped heat. It does not create total blackout but substantially cuts direct sun and glare, making outdoor spaces more comfortable.

• Blocks up to 95% UV rays
• Reduces direct sunlight and glare
• Allows air circulation to lower perceived temperature
• Easy to rinse clean with water

Will this sail hold up in regular outdoor use and how should I mount it?

The sail uses double-stitched edges and heavy-duty D-rings to distribute load and reduce wear. For best long-term performance, anchor the D-rings to solid points and allow about 1.5 ft of space for mounting hardware; using the recommended TANG Hardware Kit improves stability and weather resistance.

• Reinforced D-rings for secure anchoring
• Double-stitched hems increase tear resistance
• Allow 1.5 ft for hardware when planning attachment points
• Recommended: use TANG Hardware Kit for best results

What should I know about sizing, stretch, and the curved edge design?

The knitted HDPE fabric stretches slightly, and the measurement in the listing reflects the size when the sail is fully tensioned. Curved edges are pre-shaped to improve tension and prevent sagging, which can add 1"–8" to each side; however, the middle width may measure slightly shorter because of the curvature.

• Listed dimensions are for the sail when stretched taut
• Curved sides enhance tension and reduce droop
• Expect 1"–8" added to side length due to curves
• Contact seller if you prefer straight edges for exact fit

Where can I use this shade sail and how do I care for it?

The TANG rectangle shade sail is suitable for patios, pergolas, pools, decks, carports, playgrounds, and other outdoor living spaces. The breathable fabric resists mold and fading; routine care is simple — rinse with water and let air dry.

• Ideal for patios, gardens, decks, and pergolas
• Breathable fabric discourages moisture buildup
• Easy maintenance: hose off and air dry
• Remove in severe weather to prolong lifespan
