Artec's Group 51 Optima mount keeps your compact Group 51 Optima battery locked down through the worst terrain. It is CNC-cut from 10-gauge cold-roll steel as one piece for strength with less weight, and it includes a cutout "window" so you can still read the battery's specs after it's mounted.
Key Features
- One-piece design, CNC-cut and formed for lighter weight and added strength
- Cutout "window" to easily view the battery specs after install
- CNC cut from 10GA (.130") cold-roll steel plate
- Includes self-clinching (PEM) nuts pressed into the mount for the hold-down
- Six 1/4" bolts with nylock nuts included to secure the battery
- Fits the Group 51 Optima battery
Fitment & Compatibility
Universal mount. This is a battery-specific tray designed to hold the listed battery securely in a custom or relocated install (engine bay, cargo area, or dual-battery setup); it is not tied to one vehicle chassis, though some fabrication or adaptation may be required to place it in your rig. Confirm your battery matches the group/model this mount is cut for before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which battery does this fit?
It is designed for the Group 51 Optima battery.
What are the PEM nuts for?
They are self-clinching threaded nuts pressed into the mount so the battery hold-down bolts thread into the mount itself, no loose backing nuts to fumble with.
Can I read the battery label after mounting?
Yes. The mount has a window cutout so the battery's spec label stays visible once it is installed.
Does it come coated?
No. It ships in bare steel and must be painted or powder coated to prevent rust.
Do you make an Optima mount for other groups, and how do I mount it?
Running a Group 25 or 35 Optima instead? See the Group 25/35 Optima mount. To fasten this mount to your vehicle, use the 4-bolt battery mounting kit.
