Peterson Fluid Light Mounting Brackets
Peterson Fluid Systems Light Mounting Brackets: Precision Where It Counts
When every ounce matters on a race car, the hardware holding your fluid system components in place deserves as much engineering attention as the components themselves. Peterson Fluid Systems has built its reputation since 1982 on exactly that philosophy — and their light mounting brackets are a direct expression of it. Designed alongside Peterson's broader line of dry sump tanks, oil pumps, and filter systems, these brackets are purpose-built to keep critical fluid system hardware secure through the punishing vibration, G-forces, and heat cycles of competitive racing.
Lightweight Construction Without Sacrificing Strength
Peterson's filter mount brackets are all machined from 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum , which strikes the ideal balance between structural rigidity and minimal weight. In a racing context, that distinction is critical — a heavy steel bracket may accomplish the same mounting task, but it does so at the cost of unsprung weight, packaging flexibility, and long-term corrosion resistance. Peterson's aluminum approach keeps the bracket itself from becoming a liability in a weight-sensitive build.
The brackets provide a secure mount for filters and fluid components and are available in tube mount configurations as well as for flat surfaces like a firewall or engine plate — giving builders flexibility depending on the chassis layout. Remote mount brackets are hardcoat anodized to match the remote mount bodies , delivering a clean, professional finish that holds up in the harsh under-hood environment.
Race-Proven Engineering from Longmont, Colorado
Proudly made in the USA since 1976, Peterson components are produced in their machine shop in Longmont, Colorado , where in-house CNC machining and CAD/CAM design allow the engineering team to maintain tight tolerances and respond quickly to feedback from the racing community. Trusted by top teams across circle track, road racing, drag racing, and off-road competition , Peterson's commitment to quality is evident in the fit and finish of every bracket they produce.
For oil tank mounting applications, proper mounting of the oil tank is essential to keeping it secure during a race, and Peterson offers a number of mounting options featuring an aluminum base for light weight, stainless steel straps, panel or tube mount configurations, and rubber on the straps and base to protect the tank. These design details reflect the same care and intent found throughout Peterson's full mounting bracket lineup.
A Natural Extension of the Peterson Ecosystem
If you're already running Peterson dry sump tanks, oil pumps, or filter systems, their light mounting brackets are the natural companion — engineered to work seamlessly within the same system. Mixing and matching hardware from different manufacturers can introduce fitment headaches and unexpected failure points. Keeping your fluid system hardware in the Peterson family ensures everything was designed with the same tolerances, the same materials, and the same race conditions in mind.
