Moeller Tank Hold Down/Installation Kits
Moeller's Engineered Tank Hold Down Solutions for Marine Fuel Systems
When securing marine fuel tanks in boats and watercraft, Moeller has developed one of the most comprehensive lineups of tank hold down and installation kits designed specifically for the marine environment. With decades of experience in marine fuel containment systems, Moeller offers installation hardware that addresses the unique challenges boaters face: corrosion from saltwater exposure, vibration from engine operation, and the need for secure mounting that complies with marine safety standards.
Specialized Kit Designs for Different Tank Configurations
Moeller's Fuel Tank Cradle Hold Down Kit (model 300110) is designed to fit most marine fuel tanks and represents their heavy-duty installation solution. This kit includes eight 22-inch metal straps with mounting hardware, providing comprehensive securing capability for below-deck permanent tank installations. The plastic coated straps resist corrosion while insuring a secure installation, addressing one of the primary failure points in marine hardware exposed to moisture and salt spray.
For low-profile installations where clearance is limited, Moeller's permanent fuel tanks less than 40 gallons feature a molded in ledge, and the aluminum hold down kit includes four brackets designed specifically to hook into these tank ledges. This design is ideal for installations with limited clearance to run metal hold-down straps, offering a space-efficient alternative that doesn't compromise security. The brackets are aluminum and fit most low profile Moeller below deck tanks.
Topside and Above-Deck Installation Solutions
For portable and topside tank applications, Moeller offers dedicated kits engineered for easy access and quick-release functionality. Their topside fuel tank hold down kit includes two universal nylon straps, four stainless steel hold down brackets and mounting screws. These 72-inch length kits feature quick release buckles and corrosion resistant stainless steel fasteners, making them ideal for applications where tanks need to be removed periodically for maintenance or seasonal storage. These kits are specifically designed for use with Moeller rotationally molded fuel tanks, with design that provides molded groove that accepts mounting brackets for convenient installation.
Complete Hardware Packages for Professional Installation
What distinguishes Moeller's tank hold down kits from generic marine hardware is the completeness of each package. Rather than requiring boaters and marine technicians to source individual components, Moeller provides comprehensive kits with all necessary mounting hardware, fasteners, and straps engineered to work together as a system. This approach ensures compatibility, reduces installation time, and provides peace of mind that all components meet marine-grade corrosion resistance standards. Whether you're installing a new fuel system, replacing aging hardware, or upgrading to more secure mounting, Moeller's range of tank hold down and installation solutions offers the right combination of durability, ease of installation, and compliance with marine fuel system regulations.
