The 270 XT MAX Awning Mk2 sets a new standard for a free standing shade awning with massive shade coverage (+/-12m2 / 129ft2), incredible wind resistance. When packed away the awning is 2.3m/7’6″) long, weighs only 33.5Kg / 74lbs and can set up or packed away by one person in under 60 seconds.
The 270 XT MAX Awning Mk2 is available in either a Left Hand Side (passenger side in Australia) or Right Hand Side (driver’s side in Australia) configuration.
The 270 XT MAX Awning Mk2 is supplied with 3 Heavy Duty Adjustable L Brackets. A fitment bracket must be attached to the stainless steel head stock at each end, a minimum distance of 1800 mm / 5’10⁵⁵/₆₄”. If mounting to a roof rack then the rack will typically need to be a minimum 1.9m / 6’3″ in length. We recommend having a third bracket positioned in the middle of the awning to provide additional support.
To mount the awning to one of our rooftop tents you will need an Awning To Tent bracket which are sold separately.
The combination of forward and rear folding arms means the 270 XT MAX Awning Mk2 provides an incredible amount of shade (+/-12m2 / 129ft2) around your 4WD for you to set up your camp kitchen, swags or just a shaded seating/chill out area. As you can see from the video the awning is an easy set up by one person in about 60 seconds and the pack down is just as simple. The 270 XT MAX Awning Mk2 has a heavy duty stainless steel hinge at the rear and front section of the frame and strong gusseted arms which means you don't have to use any poles or tie down ropes in most conditions.
The Canvas
The canvas on the 270 XT MAX Awning is a 315gsm / 11.3oz poly-cotton rip-stop canvas in The Bush Company's traditional olive green colour that is mould, mildew and water resistant. Where the canvas is attached to the ends of the trussed awning arms there is additional triple reinforcement to eliminate chafing, while the front and rear arms slide into a triple stitched canvas sleeve.
The Frame
The frame of the awning is made from an extruded aluminium alloy composite which has been specifically designed to provide the elasticity, strength and durability we require. The brackets for the hinges are constructed from stainless steel providing huge strength. The main truss arms on the awning have been gusseted for additional strength, which enables the awning to be fully free standing without any poles in even strong wind conditions.
We do not supply poles for the awning as it does not need them, but we do supply guy ropes and pegs. It is recommended that the front and rear arms are pegged down when the awning is deployed to prevent excessive upward movement as these are reinforced but not gusseted. The guy ropes attach to the 1 tonne webbing straps that are attached to the canvas at the ends of the arms and midway along each canvas section.
In conjunction with the natural rake of the awning, the guy ropes should be used to prevent pooling of water on the canvas and to guide water runoff in preferred places. We do not recommend leaving the awning up unattended during snowfall due to risk of canvas stretching due to excessive weight.
The Bag
The 270 XT MAX Awning Mk2 bag is a heavy duty 450gsm tonneau fabric with YKK Zippers, that is UV and heat stabilised to resist deterioration from the sun and the elements. This fabric has the ability to endure extended flexing without cracking, and will provide many years of service.
Awning Accessories
Around the inside edge of the awning is a 50mm (2") thick triple stitched velcro strip which can be used to attach the optional 270 XT MAX Awning Wall Kit to fully enclose the area beneath the awning, or if you only want a wind break or a little privacy then check out our high quality mesh or solid canvas universal single walls.

What is the difference between mark1 andd the mark 2awning ,looks no different to my 2 year old awning
Great Awning we had ours up for 5 nights in shark bay it was windy as the entire time, we used 2 pegs for each guide rope in the soft sand and the held the entire time! Very impressed!
Awesome stuff Dean !!! Highest quality gear and I won’t run anything else on my truck 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Another good demo, thanks.
Great awning.
Very nice - Need a Mk3 now that includes led light on the truss undersides. This really does need poles, al the other 270’s have poles that fold down from the trusses.
I'm definitely getting on of these!
Brilliant Dean 👌
a couple of fold down telescopic poles would be a good idear ,,then run a tie down rope of the top of the pole
What are the actual differences between the mk1 and the mk2?
Is it just some extra fabric on the corners and a lightened frame?
Was there anything else that's changed?
Seems like the Mk1 had a reflective material on top of the canvas that is not present here on the 270 XT MAX MK2, it also disappeared on the 270 XT MK2. Curious to know why.
So, I called. The reflective layer wasn't aging well, so they removed it.
On top of this, I understand the following:
- they switched to two-piece canvas instead of three. Fewer seams
- added reinforcement plate on the front
- No more D-ring, even if stainless they were showing surface rust with time in a humid climate
- reinforced seams in some places (didn't quite get where exactly)
Hope this helps.
How long are the support arms?
All good but how long are the arms?
Hi!
Виглядає непогано))
Is worldwide delivery possible? How to order to Ukraine?
wow
I need something like this for my Texas beach trips. Hook a disabled vet up!
Reference "For the Classic or Classic MAX rooftop tents only the standard 270 XT Awning™ can be mounted directly to the side of the tent" okay got that. However, why couldn't the 270 XTMAX be mounted to the CLASSIC MAX (INdirectly)?
For the Marquis 270 XT MAX™ Mk2, there is also a mirrored version? To be mounted on the right side of the campervan.
Hi, yes there is a right-hand side version as well.
I own a Subaru Ascent. Can I open the hatch with the awning?
Not sure on that one, it would depending on the roof racks and how high they sit Vs the hatch
Length from the side of the vehicle?
Hi, cool thing, can this structure be attached to a bus or camper?
I found the video. There must be a rack to mount.
