Heavy-Duty Fan-Shaped Cantilever Weight Set – 4 Piece – High-Capacity HDPE Ballast System
The Heavy-Duty Fan-Shaped Cantilever Weight Set is a professional-grade ballast solution specifically engineered to stabilize offset and market umbrellas equipped with a cross-base frame. Constructed from high-density polyethylene (HDPE), this 4-piece modular system offers exceptional durability and is completely rust-proof, making it an ideal long-term alternative to traditional metal weights. When fully deployed, the set provides a massive combined ballast capacity of approximately 60 litres when filled with water or 72 kg when filled with sand, significantly lowering the center of gravity to resist high winds and harsh weather conditions. Designed for maximum portability, each fan-shaped segment features an integrated handle and an easy-fill spout, allowing for effortless transport and seasonal storage. This weight set is the definitive choice for homeowners seeking a versatile, high-capacity anchoring system that prioritizes safety, ease of handling, and structural integrity for large-scale outdoor shade solutions.
Best For: Anchoring large cantilever and offset umbrellas with cross-bases, providing maximum stability in high-wind environments, ensuring a rust-free weighting solution for patios, and facilitating easy seasonal transport and storage.
Key Features
- High-Density HDPE Construction: Fabricated from industrial-grade HDPE plastic to ensure the weights remain leak-proof, impact-resistant, and entirely free from corrosion or UV degradation over years of outdoor exposure.
- Dual-Filler Ballast Versatility: Engineered to accommodate both water and sand; providing 15 L of water capacity or 18 kg of sand per segment for a total set weight of up to 72 kg.
- Modular Fan-Shaped Design: The 4-piece configuration is specifically tailored to fit seamlessly into the quadrants of a standard cross-base frame, providing balanced and distributed weight for maximum safety.
- Portability-Focused Handle Integration: Each segment is designed with a built-in carry handle, allowing the weights to be moved with ease when empty—perfect for repositioning the umbrella or winter storage.
- High-Efficiency Fill Spouts: Features wide-diameter spouts on every piece to allow for rapid filling and draining, minimizing setup time and ensuring a secure, mess-free seal.

Important Note on Availability & Shipping
Our warehouse serves as our office and logistics centre rather than a retail showroom. Because we ship from multiple locations and manage high-turnover stock, not all items are available for immediate pickup.
Lead Times:
- In-Stock Items: Usually ready for dispatch the same day.
- Supplier-Dependent Items: Usually take 2–8 weeks to arrive, depending on supplier availability. Products from Adloheat may take 8–12 weeks to manufacture—they are made to order in Australia by a small business, and longer lead times reflect the care put into quality.
While we strive for fast delivery, some timelines are subject to supplier availability and are beyond our control. We appreciate your patience as we source the best quality gear for your project.
