17ft x 21ft x 27ft Black Right Triangle Shade Sail - 95% UV Block

Our review of the 17' x 21' x 27' Black Right Triangle Shade Sail finds it best suited for homeowners and small businesses who need a tailored shade solution that prioritizes sun protection and cooler outdoor spaces. The single biggest reason to buy is its combination of heavy-duty 200 GSM HDPE fabric and high UV blockage, which together deliver meaningful temperature reduction and durable everyday performance when installed correctly.

Key Features

• 95% UV protection: The 200 GSM HDPE fabric blocks up to 95% of harmful UV rays, making it safer to spend time outdoors under the sail.
• Temperature reduction: Placing this shade sail over a seating or play area can lower ambient temperatures by up to 15 degrees compared to unshaded spots.
• Custom sizing: This item is made to measured D-ring to D-ring dimensions so the fit matches the intended space and minimizes sag when tensioned.
• Durable construction: Reinforced edges, double-layer stitching and stainless steel D-rings improve longevity and resist fraying at stress points.
• Flexible installation: The sail can be mounted to trees, walls, roofs, or poles using standard hardware kits and allows corner gap adjustments for proper tension.
• Commercial standard: Built to withstand regular outdoor use and offered with a 3 year assurance for added confidence.

Who It's For

The shade sail is ideal for homeowners, cafes, and small commercial spaces that want an expanded shaded area without permanent construction; its custom sizing and right triangle shape make it a practical option for patios, playgrounds, terraces and poolside spots. Anyone seeking to reduce heat and sun exposure while keeping airflow will appreciate the water and air permeable HDPE fabric and substantial UV blockage.

People who need a simple temporary umbrella replacement or a precise architectural canopy will find value here, but those wanting a fully waterproof canopy or a rigid permanent roof should look elsewhere. Also, buyers who expect multi-year performance in extreme UV environments should consider that long-term durability can vary with exposure and care.

Frequently Asked Questions

How should I measure for a custom fit?
Measure from D-ring to D-ring at the four corners you plan to attach; provide those dimensions when ordering to ensure the sail matches your anchor points.

Is this sail waterproof?
No, the HDPE fabric is water permeable to prevent pooling; it provides shade and UV protection but is not a waterproof tarp.

What spacing is recommended for corner hardware?
For best tension leave at least 0.5 ft gap between D-rings and poles; you may reduce this by 1 to 1.5 ft per side depending on layout.
