Product Overview
The Gomulei Color Tassel Shade Sail combines high-efficiency sun protection with aesthetic outdoor décor. Made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) virgin material, with added UV stabilizers, it offers a shading rate of ≥85% and an outdoor lifespan of 3–5 years under normal use.
Each side features decorative tassels, making it ideal for playground stands, poolside areas, amusement parks, and outdoor cafés. The shade sail can be installed as a fixed or retractable system (manual or motorized). When paired with specialized plastic-coated steel wire and tensioners, it remains taut, flat, and highly wind-resistant.

Installation (Fixed Type Recommended)
Recommended Accessories: Plastic-coated steel wire + dedicated tensioners
Installation Steps:
- Anchor Preparation: Install fixed anchor points at both ends (posts or walls), spacing ≤40 m.
- Thread Wire: Pass the steel wire through the reinforced edge of the shade sail.
- Pre-Tension: Tie the wire loosely to anchors and roughly align the sail.
- Tensioning: Hook the tensioners and tighten evenly until the sail is flat, with tassels hanging naturally.
- Locking: Use the tensioner ratchet lock, then trim excess wire.
Advantages: Plastic-coated steel wire is high-tensile, low-stretch, and anti-aging. Combined with tensioners, it ensures uniform tension and avoids rusting or sagging problems typical of iron wires or nylon ropes.
Retractable System (Optional)
For areas requiring adjustable shading, two retractable options are available:
- Manual Retractable: Hand-crank or pulley system, economical and stable.
- Motorized Retractable: Tubular motor + remote control, one-touch operation.
Use Cases: Afternoon pool shading, outdoor restaurant flexible coverage, sunrooms, etc. Maximum span customizable (≤40 m).

- Check wire tension quarterly and adjust with tensioners if sagging occurs.
- Cleaning: rinse with low-pressure water or soft brush; avoid high-pressure jets on tassel bases.
- Store in a dry, shaded area during winter or prolonged inactivity to prevent snow or debris damage.
- For minor tears, repair with the same material patch and cable ties without affecting overall lifespan.
FAQ
Q: How much wind can the tassel shade sail withstand?
A: Fixed installation with tensioned steel wire can safely resist 4–5 level winds (20–30 km/h). For high-wind areas, shorten anchor spacing or add mid-span reinforcement.
Q: How to choose between S-100 and S-210?
A: S-100 (~50 cm) suits narrow decorative strips or fences; S-210 (~1.5 m) fits large-area shading, e.g., pools or playground stands. Multiple rolls can be joined side by side.
Q: Are steel wire and tensioners supplied?
A: Yes. foshanmuxuan provides full sets (φ2.5 mm or φ3 mm wire, 4–6 tensioners per 100 m sail).
Q: Will 85% shading be too dark?
A: 85% shading effectively reduces heat in strong sunlight while maintaining visibility and airflow, ideal for outdoor spaces.
