question

does this adapter tilt more than 90 degrees? i need something that can be angled downward
Asked by: Anonymous
It has a wide range of movement; you can adjust it anywhere from the 8 o'clock position up over to the 4 o'clock spot. About 240 degrees.

question

I know that the more expensive counterbalanced Kupo swivel umbrella bracket is made of aluminum. This one looks identical but is it also made of aluminum or is it a plastic?
Asked by: Anonymous
The main parts are a cast metal. The only plastic parts are the knobs to attach to the pole and to adjust the tilt.
