Lightweight 5LB Propane Tank Mount

Lockable 5LB Propane Tank Mount for Overland and Camp Setups

This 5LB propane tank mount gives a compact camp-fuel bottle a real home on your rig, trailer, or camp kitchen setup instead of letting it bounce around with the rest of the loose gear.

The mount is made from 5052 aluminum to keep weight down while still giving the bottle a secure cradle. A stainless steel draw latch closes the clamp quickly, the latch can accept a padlock, and the built-in security flanges make the bottle harder to tamper with once it is locked in place.

It is a fixed-diameter mount, not an adjustable strap. That is intentional. The mount is built around a 205 mm (8 in) bottle diameter so the propane tank sits cleanly in the cradle with the included edge trim installed.

Secure without extra bulk

The 5052 aluminum body keeps the mount light, while the upper clamp and lower cradle control the bottle instead of relying on a loose strap.

Quick access at camp

The stainless draw latch opens fast when you need the bottle, then closes back down without a pile of extra hardware.

Left or right access

The mount can be reversed so the latch opens from the side that makes sense for your vehicle, rack, trailer, or storage layout.

Tank Fitment

This mount is built for tanks with a 205 mm (8 in) diameter. We have tested it with the Ignik 5LB tank and the FlameKing 5LB tank we have had in the shop, and those bottles have matched the diameter this mount was designed around.

That does not mean every product sold as a 5 lb propane tank will fit. Third-party listings can change, substitutions happen, and some sellers ship a different bottle than the one shown on the product page. If you are sourcing the tank somewhere else, order the bottle first and verify the diameter before ordering the mount.

Important: the 5LB Propane Tank Mount only works with tanks that measure 205 mm (8 in) in diameter.

Finish Options

Choose raw aluminum if you want the bare fabricated look, or textured black powder coat if you want a darker finished part that blends in with a rack, trailer, or cargo-area build. Both versions use the same mount design and fit the same 205 mm bottle diameter.

FAQ

Will this fit every 5 lb propane tank?

No. It is built for tanks that measure 205 mm (8 in) in diameter. Verify your bottle diameter before ordering if you are not using one of the tanks listed above.

Does it fit the Ignik 5LB propane tank?

Yes. The Ignik 5LB Propane Tank we have tested in-house matches the diameter this mount is built around.

Can the mount be locked?

The stainless steel draw latch is padlock-capable. A padlock is sold separately unless selected as an add-on.

Can the latch open from either side?

Yes. The mount is reversible, so you can orient it for left- or right-hand access based on how it fits your vehicle, rack, trailer, or camp kitchen layout.

Made in Utah

We develop and manufacture this mount in-house at American Adventure Lab in St. George, Utah. That keeps the details close: the bottle fit, latch behavior, edge trim, mounting pattern, and finish options all stay tied to the way customers actually build overland rigs and camp systems.
