Eheim Base Plate for Classic 2250 / 2260 and Pond Filters 3450 / 3460 (7290850)

The Eheim Base Plate (7290850) is a genuine OEM replacement base plate designed specifically for the Eheim Classic 2250, Classic 1500XL (2260) external canister filters and garden pond filters 3450 and 3460. The base plate is the bottom support component of the filter canister — it stabilises the filter body, provides a secure footing on the cabinet floor, and supports the structural integrity of the canister assembly during operation. Galaxus

Over time base plates can crack, warp, or break — particularly if the filter has been dropped or subjected to physical stress during maintenance. Replacing with a genuine Eheim OEM base plate ensures stable pump fixation, reducing the risk of vibrations and leaks. EHEIM-Kundendienst
