Does anyone know where I can order/buy replacement adaptors for umbrella stands? I need one that goes from 2" to 1.5" . I am trying to keep a 13' umbrella from toppling in the wind. My stand is heavy enough, (I think), about 60 pounds. However, the adapter is one of those cheap plastic rings. I know I have seen some that reduce the size of the tube by turning an outside ring that clamps tighter to the whole pole, not just the tiny spot where the screw hits. There are others that you push a lever and a "bar?" holds the umbrella in place. I need something before my umbrella gets caught in the wind. Thanks.
