About This Item

The Hayward Platform Base with Screws – Low Profile (EC1161PAK) is the OEM replacement filter base for the StarClear Cartridge Filter W3C500 and the Perflex Extended-Cycle DE Filter W3EC40AC.

This low-profile thermoplastic platform base mounts the filter tank to a stable footing and includes the mounting screws required for reassembly. Replacing a cracked, broken, or missing base restores proper filter stability and ensures the tank sits level and secure during operation.

Poolaroo Pro Tip

Before installing the new base, inspect the mounting surface for any debris or damage that could prevent the base from sitting flush. Hand-tighten the included screws first to confirm alignment, then torque evenly to avoid stress-cracking the thermoplastic housing.
