Moeller Permanent Fuel Tank Hold Down Kit

Great seller, fast shipping. Product as described!

Works great and holds down securely. Good product quality. Easy installation with necessary parts except stainless screws may be too long for certail applications.Would definitely buy again from this vendor.

I wanted to keep our 1968 Johnson Seasport 155 tri-hull, so I custom fitted a Coast Guard Approved gas tank in it. So glad I ordered the matching straps to keep the tank in place, it would have been madness to try making my own to keep about 100 pounds of gasoline from bouncing around in a boat---especially the way we sometimes take waves ! Gasoline is about 8 pounds per gallon ! Gotta be safe & legal !! Hal J

First, you REALLY need to read the installation instructions that come with the tank before you use these. They're sized to hold a tank that has a 1/4" sheet of neoprene installed between the tank and the deck. Without that sheet of neoprene they're simply too big. Second, once filled with gas, the material in a new tank will expand ~3% in all directions over the first month. It's a chemical reaction between the gasoline the plastic, not just expansion due to temperature changes. So tightly clamping down a new tank could result in problems as the tank expands. Unfortunately neither of these bits of information are included in hold down kit - only with the new tank. Finally, these are really simple and could be fabricated in 10 minutes from $5 of aluminum flat bar stock. Not worth the price vendors are asking on the low end, and certainly not double that like some vendors are trying for on the high end!

I bought these for the auxiliary tank I purchased as back up in case the tank itself didn't come with them. (oops I forgot on my tank review that these were not included). Anyhow, I'm glad I bought them, they are made to fit perfectly with the molded tank and work quite well.

bought these brackets to hold down amoeller topside tank I installed. very easy to use and holds the tank tightly in place with no movement.

They are too tall/long for the Moeller 22 gal fuel tank and do not sit flush on the deck.

This product was needed to secure a permanent Moeller fuel tank in a boat I'm building. Harvard Marine has consistently provided the fastest service to Florida and best price. Well done folks.
