Attwood 9065-1 Vented Group 24 Marine Battery Box with 350 lb Hold-Down Strap

The Attwood 9065-1 is a vented marine battery box built to hold and protect Group 24 (Series 24) batteries up to 10.125 inches tall, keeping the battery secured and ventilated aboard fishing boats, pontoons, and other recreational vessels. The box is molded from acid-resistant polypropylene, a material chosen to withstand corrosion and exposure to battery acid while standing up to harsh marine environments; it has been drop tested across a temperature range of -20 F to 120 F. A vented cover design allows hazardous battery gases to escape rather than build up inside the box, which is the reason this style is suitable for marine use (unlike a non-vented cover, which is not).

Four cable openings, each enlarged to a 0.55 inch diameter, allow clean routing of battery cables, and larger handles with rolled edges make the box easier to carry and service. Installation instructions are molded directly into the inside of the cover for quick reference during setup. Security comes from an included 40 inch hold-down strap rated to resist 350 pounds of force, nearly four times the USCG requirement, so the battery stays locked in place while underway. Mounting hardware is included, and the complete setup meets USCG Specification 183.420 and ABYC Standard E-10 for OEM-installed battery hold-down systems.
