Your cart is empty. Vortex Bimini Tops are made with 600 denier marine grade polyester. It is double polyurethane coated on the bottom, or down side, as well as UV protected and sealed. Polyester and acrylic are very similar for bimini tops. Polyester has a very rich color and holds up to UV exposure very well. Vortex Bimini Tops are simply the best option out there due to the quality, warranty, and incredible value.
As far as the support system/framework, it is made with 1" round tube anodized aluminum. Anodizing is just a process that increases corrosion resistance and wear resistance of a metal. Aluminum is the best metal for the framework of a bimini top. Then, it is treated to make it even better. The fittings and hardware are all heavy duty nylon and stainless steel(mounting screws hooks, and eye straps).
Instructions are included with the Vortex Bimini Top. Installation is very easy for anyone with even moderate handyman type skills. It is a very easy 2 person job, with very very basic hand tools. A cordless drill, tapemeasure, screwdriver, pencil, etc. It is a 1 to 2 hour job...maybe a little less with a helper.

I ordered this Bimini for my boat and installed it which was easy. It looks great but is not very strong and during a thunderstorm with some winds the bimini bent out of shape and the aluminum tubing snapped rendering the bimini useless. I guess you get what you pay for. I will go with a stainless steel bimini next time as these hold up better and are much stronger.
