What is the diameter of the aluminum pole?
The aluminum pole diameter is 25 mm.

Troubleshooting
Bimini top appears loose or unstable.
Ensure all adjustable nylon straps are tightened securely. Check that the mounting hardware (eye hooks, nuts, knobs) is firmly attached to the boat and the bimini frame.
Fabric shows signs of wear or fading.
Use the storage boot when the bimini is not in use to protect it from prolonged UV exposure. Clean gently with a damp cloth rather than abrasive cleaners.
Mounting hardware shows corrosion.
Although made of marine-grade stainless steel, regular rinsing with fresh water after saltwater exposure and periodic inspection can prolong the life of the fittings.
Bimini makes noise or flaps at higher speeds.
This indicates the need to reduce speed. The bimini is not designed for use above 25 mph and should be folded down and secured using the storage boot.
