BTF fire extinguisher mount

**NODNARB** · 06-24-2009, 12:36 AM

These can be hose clamped or welded onto your existing cage structure. This is the 1st one we've made and we'll probably make a few small changes to it, but you just pull the pin, and the extinguisher is ready to go.
available as a weld-it yourself deal, or fully welded as shown. comes with Gr. 8 bolt, locknut, and the pull-pin.
measures approx. 7" long.
price is $30 unwelded, or $40 welded

price?

**maxyedor** · 06-24-2009, 01:02 AM

PM me pricing when you get the final details all figured out, gotta have a slick mount or 3 for my extinguishers.

**DoWN4GLaMiS** · 06-24-2009, 01:03 AM

these things kick ass! ive have 2 or 3 laying around, but i have 1 mounted on the truck

**Alon** · 06-24-2009, 01:09 AM

I'll take one... will it be ready when my arms are?

Also, Would be way better if the flat pieces were bent to better fit the tube its getting mounted on and the extinguisher

that just might be one of the changes...

and maybe as far as when your arms are done...i need to make a lasercut run soon.

**Armistice** · 06-24-2009, 01:58 AM

Looks awesome, Brandon. Maybe also put a chain that connects the pin to the base plate so the pin doesn't get lost?

**only1mikey** · 06-24-2009, 09:35 AM

Can you have two of those ready for me by next Wednesday? If not I'll just have you send them.

**Chase550** · 06-24-2009, 10:10 AM

Kudos to everyone for not playing the typical DR bs game of you copied so and so just like so and so did.

Looks good.

**98RangerDAVE** · 06-24-2009, 10:32 AM

Brandon, do you make them for smaller fire extinguishers? I have one but it's smaller than a full size. If so I'll pick one up when I drop off my tuck on the 8th.

I can't, but it looks like i'll do a run of these very soon from the responses

they can easily be used with a small extinguisher as well. I was going to take pics w/ the smaller extinguisher, but the only hose clamps i had were too big

you copied so and so just like so and so did, Brandon. I will take my services elsewhere!

Just kidding, it looks great. Is it able to hard mount to a flat serface, or just clamped to a tube?

**CBTF Edge** · 06-25-2009, 09:37 AM

you could easily drill some holes in the flat part of it and bolt it to any flat surface

**BTF Fabrication** · 06-25-2009, 09:16 PM

So we need to decide what my royalties to these will be.

**charlie_brown** · 06-27-2009, 04:01 PM

what material (thickness) is the 2 plates. i purchased 2 from gmr and the plates are to thin and bend. so the extinguisher flops from side to side.

**mobdeepdak** · 06-27-2009, 04:19 PM

damn those things are badass!!! how much and when will they be available?

pm on its way

**charlie_brown** · 06-27-2009, 10:08 PM

[QUOTE=NODNARB;1718798]all 1/8" plate.

i think you should make the 2 outer plates a little thicker. like i was saying, i have 2 of the gmr ones and after some offroading they start to loosen up side to side.

**NODNARB** · 06-27-2009, 10:11 PM

This advice is very much appreciated

I haven't yet made a run of these so they will be cut from 3/16"
thank you.

**1969f100** · 06-27-2009, 10:15 PM

just curious, why not post the price instead of having to PM everyone?

Us garage fabbers don't pay much to DR for "advertising" so we don't get to post prices and stuff like that...more or less.

Seems that would make a better fit, similar to the ones that were on RDC.

3/16 is beefy for them but looks allot better, have them cut out of 3/16 for sure. the one i made the other day put no doubt in my mind that 3/16 is the way to go for these mounts. also id add a lanyard to hold onto the pin. i can see those getting lost easily.

**charlie_brown** · 06-28-2009, 08:42 AM

just to clarify, you don’t need to make the whole thing out of 3/16, just the 2 uprights or 1/8 and make some guestt to keep the "flopping" down. Oh and i would not make it with the 1/2 round tube mount. the flat plat is more universal.

**blue04edge** · 06-28-2009, 10:45 AM

why are you holding out on me, wheres mine at?! haha

I wouldnt do round, but if there were bends in the mounting surfaces it would hold to the round tube and fire ext better

**slcpunk74** · 06-28-2009, 09:42 PM

If you are worried why not just weld some washers on the 1/8 plate so the holes won't oval out. Nice simple design, if I had cash I would be down but no job+ desert truck= not a lot of spare green.

**Knuckledstr** · 06-28-2009, 09:46 PM

the problem isnt with the holes ovaling out. its with the sideplates being flimsy.

**NODNARB** · 07-02-2009, 08:48 PM

Okay, I have a first run of 20 of these on order at the lasercutters right now, they should be ready sometime next week. feel free to call or PM me.
They will be all 3/16" plate.

Maybe make it so that when someone puts in an order, they can choose the flat or round. Then when they buy whichever, you spend 5mins welding the uprights to whatever backing they chose? Or just weld the flat backing, but have the option to use round stock so when they order it, you just weld the round to the flat (multi pass)

And deff make the part for the FE angled like the RDC ones

**NODNARB** · 07-04-2009, 12:16 PM

one more thing: FREE SHIPPING to the lower 48

Like i said before I'll take two. I'll call you soon to see what evening is good for you.

Mike

**98RangerDAVE** · 07-05-2009, 12:54 PM

Hey Brandon, if you have one available when I pick up my truck next Saturday, I'll take one off your hands. This will look a lot better than where mine is at now. haha
