A preform (10) for producing a plastic preform for forming blow molded plastic containers which comprises: a neck portion (16) defining an opening; a tubular sidewall portion (24) depending therefrom; and an integral base structure (28) depending from the tubular sidewall portion to a closed end (32

A preform (10) for producing a plastic preform for forming blow molded plastic containers which comprises: a neck portion (16) defining an opening; a tubular sidewall portion (24) depending therefrom; and an integral base structure (28) depending from the tubular sidewall portion to a closed end (32); the preform having an outside wall face and an inside wall face with one of these, in the base structure, having integrally formed thereon a plurality of filets (36), extending longitudinally of the preform and defining a reinforcement (38) of varying thickness spaced from the closed end and circumscribing the base structure, wherein the filets decrease progressively in width and radial thickness at least from the reinforcing ring toward the closed end. The preform is capable of forming a blow molded plastic container with a bottom portion (130) having a reinforcement of circumferentially continuous radially extending alterations in wall thickness with a regularly undulating cross-section along the circumference. Preferably the filets are integral with the inside wall face. The invention also covers a mold-core rod combination for making such a preform, a process of using such a preform to make plastic containers by stretch/blow molding and containers including containers when produced from said preforms or combinations, or by said process.
