Moeller Marine Battery Tray 042232 for 27 Series Batteries, Non-Corrosive Plastic Construction
The Moeller Marine Battery Tray, part number 042232, is a heavy duty holder built to secure a 27 Series marine battery in place aboard your boat. Molded from non-corrosive, high-strength plastic, the tray resists the saltwater spray, bilge moisture, and battery acid exposure that cause metal trays to rust and fail over time. The base measures 14.38 in. L x 7.5 in. W x 11.35 in. H (365 mm L x 191 mm W x 288 mm H), sized to cradle a standard 27 Series battery securely against vibration and wave impact.
The tray uses stainless steel hold-down rods paired with self-locking security knobs, so the battery stays clamped down without the knobs backing out from engine vibration or rough water. Installation is straightforward: set the battery in the tray, position the stainless rods, and tighten the security knobs by hand. This makes the 042232 tray a practical upgrade or replacement for boat owners looking to keep a 27 Series battery properly restrained in an engine compartment, battery box, or under-console mounting location.
