Round Plexiglass Table Top with Umbrella Hole
Transparent, durable, and perfectly sized for your patio umbrella — a clear acrylic top that elevates any outdoor dining or lounge setup.
Why a plexiglass table top? Unlike glass, acrylic (plexiglass) is shatter-resistant, lightweight, and UV-stable — ideal for outdoor use. When paired with a precision-cut umbrella hole, you get the perfect blend of style and function for alfresco dining.
Key Benefits
☀️ UV & Weather Resistant
High-grade acrylic withstands sun exposure without yellowing, and resists moisture, heat, and humidity — perfect for year-round outdoor use.
🛡️ Shatterproof & Safe
Unlike glass, plexiglass won't shatter into dangerous shards. It's impact-resistant, making it a safer choice for families and high-traffic patios.
🌀 Precision Umbrella Hole
Factory-cut hole (typically 1.5″–2″) fits most standard patio umbrellas. The smooth edge prevents fraying and ensures a snug, stable fit.
🧼 Easy to Clean
Wipe clean with mild soap and water — no special cleaners needed. Acrylic resists stains and doesn't require sealing like wood or stone.
What to Look For
When shopping for a round plexiglass table top with an umbrella hole, consider these key factors:
- Thickness: 1/4″ (6mm) for light use, 3/8″ (10mm) or 1/2″ (12mm) for heavy-duty stability.
- Diameter: Common sizes range from 36″ to 60″. Measure your existing base or table frame before ordering.
- Edge Finish: Polished edges look clean and prevent chipping. Beveled or rounded edges add a premium feel.
- Umbrella Hole Size: Standard is 1.5″–2″. Confirm your umbrella pole diameter (most are 1.5″).
- UV Coating: Some tops come with a UV-protective layer to reduce fading and extend life.
Most quality tops are made from cast acrylic or extruded acrylic — cast acrylic is more scratch-resistant and optically clearer, ideal for tabletops.

Care & Maintenance
To keep your plexiglass table top looking clear and new:

With proper care, a quality acrylic top can last 10+ years outdoors.
