If you’ve ever watched your propane tank roll around the back of your truck, slide across the patio, or tip dangerously close to your grill, you already know: bungee cords and “good enough” just don’t cut it.
Introducing The Claw – Adjustable Propane Tank Mount—the rugged, lock-tight mounting solution from EvergreenBGF. It’s the unsung hero of a well-organized BBQ setup, overlanding kitchen, hunting trailer, or camp kitchen.
Built to secure your tank exactly where you want it—without the bounce, slide, or tip—The Claw does what bungee cords can’t: it holds firm, stays stable, and looks good doing it.
In this blog, we’re breaking down why this tank mount is such a game-changer, how to install and use it, and how it pairs with your favorite EvergreenBGF gear—from fire pits to grill stations.
Why You Need a Propane Tank Mount That Actually Works
Let’s be honest: your propane tank is probably an afterthought. You wheel it out, prop it up next to your fire pit or BBQ, then kick it back under the deck after use. Or worse—it rides loose in your truck bed while you hit washboard roads on the way to camp.
Here’s what that leads to:
- Dented tanks
- Stress on your propane line connections
- Sliding and rolling in transport
- Tipping in wind or uneven terrain
- Safety risks (especially with open flame nearby)
The Claw fixes that with a no-flex, easy-to-use, adjustable clamping system. It holds your tank vertical, tight, and secure on nearly any surface—flatbed, deck, patio, trailer, UTV, or tailgate.
Built for Real Outdoor Use
EvergreenBGF gear is made for people who spend time off-grid, in the woods, on the trail, or working the ranch. The Claw is no exception.
Key Features:
- Adjustable design fits standard propane tanks snugly
- Mounting base attaches to almost any flat surface
- Corrosion-resistant hardware built to handle weather
- Quick-release knob for easy install and removal
- Sturdy steel frame that won’t warp or bend with heat, time, or pressure
Whether you’re overlanding through Utah or grilling by the lake in Texas, this mount turns your propane tank into a solid part of your setup, not a hazard waiting to happen.
