Black 51cm Fillable Base for Garden and Patio Umbrellas
This water-fillable umbrella base is designed for selected centre-pole outdoor umbrellas with pole diameters ranging from 30mm to 48mm.
The supplier recommends it for compatible outdoor pole umbrellas with canopies measuring less than 3m wide.
It may suit suitable garden, courtyard, patio or outdoor table umbrella arrangements where a separate supporting base is required.
However, pole diameter is only one consideration when choosing a base. You must also check canopy size, pole design, umbrella weight and the manufacturer’s recommended ballast requirements.
Water-Fillable Design with 23.8kg Filled Weight
The base weighs approximately 1.8kg when empty, making it more convenient to position before filling.
Once filled with water according to the manufacturer’s instructions, its total stated weight increases to approximately 23.8kg.
This additional ballast helps support an appropriately sized and compatible umbrella during suitable outdoor conditions.
Always install the umbrella pole correctly and follow the manufacturer’s filling and securing instructions.
A water-filled base does not make an umbrella windproof. Close and secure your umbrella when unattended or whenever conditions become windy.
Black Polyethylene Construction
The umbrella base is made from black polyethylene (PE) plastic.
Its neutral colour complements black, grey, beige and other outdoor umbrella finishes.
The supplier-stated dimensions are 51cm x 12cm, providing a useful reference when checking available space beneath an outdoor table or around patio furniture.
Position the base on a firm, level and stable surface before installation.
Integrated Handles for Easier Positioning
Built-in carrying handles help you move and position the base when empty.
For example, you can position the base in your chosen outdoor seating area before filling it with water and securing the umbrella pole.
When you need to rearrange your patio furniture or store the base, empty the water first rather than attempting to lift the filled unit.
Inspect the handles and surrounding plastic for damage before handling.
Check Umbrella Compatibility Before Ordering
This black 51cm fillable base is not a universal umbrella stand.
It is designed for selected centre-pole umbrellas below 3m wide with poles measuring between 30mm and 48mm in diameter.
A large canopy, heavy frame or exposed location may require a different supporting arrangement even when the pole fits.
This single-plate base should not be assumed suitable for large side-post cantilever umbrellas, which generally require purpose-designed supporting systems.

Assembly, Safety and Maintenance
- Assemble the base according to the supplied user manual.
