Camco 60% UV Block Part No. 51451 Camco RV Awning Shade Kit -- 54 x 120 Inches -- Black Mesh

Turn your awning into a true outdoor room. The Camco 51451 Awning Shade Kit hangs in your existing awning roller channel and drops a 4.5 ft x 10 ft black mesh curtain that cuts 60% of UV radiation, lets the breeze through, and retracts out of the way when you want full sun. Everything you need for a same-day install is in the box.

Shade, Airflow, and Privacy -- Without Blocking the Wind

Most solid awning panels trap heat and turn your patio into an oven. The Camco 51451 uses an open-weave mesh construction that filters harsh direct sunlight while allowing natural airflow to pass through freely. The result is a noticeably cooler, more comfortable outdoor space even on bright summer afternoons.

The shade panel slides directly into standard RV awning roller channels -- the same channel your awning fabric sits in -- so there is no drilling, no permanent modification, and no special tools required. Two included bungee cords anchor the bottom edge and two ground stakes keep everything taut and in place when the wind picks up.

60% UV Protection

Open-weave black mesh blocks approximately 60% of UV radiation, reducing glare and heat on your patio without eliminating airflow.

Retractable Design

Rides in your awning roller channel so it can be gathered and pushed aside like a curtain while still fully installed -- no removal required.

Complete Hardware Kit

Includes the shade panel, two bungee cords, and two ground stakes. Everything needed for installation is included in the package.

Weather-Resistant Material

UV-stabilized and weather-resistant mesh holds up to sun, rain, and repeated use across multiple camping seasons.

How It Installs

The Camco Awning Shade Kit is designed to slide into the existing fabric channel on your RV awning roller tube -- the same channel that holds the edge of your awning fabric. No modification to the awning hardware is needed. The process is straightforward:

  • Extend your awning to the desired position.
  • Feed the top edge of the shade panel into the awning roller channel.
  • Let the mesh panel drop down along the side of the awning.
  • Attach the included bungee cords to the bottom hem grommets and stake them into the ground with the included stakes to hold the panel taut.
  • When not needed, simply push the panel to one end of the channel -- it gathers like a curtain and stays out of the way.
Fits Most RV Awnings -- The 54 x 120 inch panel is sized to work with the vast majority of standard RV patio awnings from brands including Carefree, A&E, Dometic, and Lippert. The roller-channel mounting system is universal across most awning styles produced in the last two decades.

Mesh Material and Weather Resistance

The shade fabric is constructed from UV-stabilized mesh that resists fading and degradation from prolonged sun exposure. The open weave is firm enough to provide meaningful shade coverage while remaining porous enough that wind loads on the awning stay manageable. This matters -- a solid panel in high wind can stress awning arms and hardware significantly. The mesh design reduces that risk.

The black colorway minimizes glare reflection into your RV interior and holds its appearance well across seasons. The material is weather-resistant and can handle light rain while extended.

Wind Advisory: Like all awning accessories, this shade kit should be retracted or removed when wind exceeds approximately 20 mph or during storms. Extended awning hardware is not rated for high-wind conditions with or without a shade panel attached. Always monitor weather and retract your awning when conditions change.
Retracts Without Removal: One of the most practical features of this kit is the slide-and-gather design. You do not need to remove the panel from the awning channel to put it out of use. Slide it to one end of the roller tube and it stays neatly bunched until you need it again.

Typical Applications

  • Patio awning sun and UV shading at campgrounds and full-hookup sites
  • Privacy screen between adjacent campsites
  • Reducing solar heat gain on slide-out toppers and slideout areas
  • Boondocking and dry camping where a comfortable outdoor workspace is important
  • Full-time RV living where daily outdoor comfort is a priority
Care and Storage Tips
  • Rinse with clean water after dusty or rainy camping trips to prevent grit buildup in the mesh weave.
  • Allow the panel to dry fully before storing or gathering it in the roller channel to prevent mildew.
  • Inspect bungee cords at the start of each season -- replace if cracked or if hooks show corrosion.
  • Store ground stakes in a small bag so they stay with the kit and do not get lost between trips.

Important Information
  • Always retract your awning and remove or secure this shade panel before driving or when wind speeds are significant. Failure to do so can damage awning hardware and the RV itself.
  • This kit is designed for patio awnings with a standard roller channel. Verify your awning uses a roller-channel design before ordering. Clip-style or slide-wire awnings may require a different attachment method.
  • The 10-foot panel length is suited to awnings in the 10 to 12 foot range. Awnings significantly wider may leave gaps at the ends.
  • Ground stakes may not be usable on hard-surface sites (concrete, asphalt). Bring supplemental tie-down weights if your site does not have soft ground.
  • 60% UV block does not mean 60% shade -- direct and reflected UV can still reach occupants. Take additional sun protection precautions during extended outdoor exposure.
  • Limited 90-day warranty from Camco. Warranty covers manufacturing defects; damage from wind events or misuse is not covered.
