Question:
I am looking for a mounting plate for my camping trailer that can accommodate 2 composite propane tanks, like Viking tanks. Any suggestions? Not sure that the mounting plates that you sell will work.

Hello Luann, great question. Looking online at these composite propane tanks like the Viking tanks or similar, it looks like they are all about 12" in diameter. The only thing we offer that I could see potentially working for this is the Single-Bottle Liquid Propane Gas Rack # 2020-JR. This is for a standard 20 lb tank which is 12-1/2" in diameter. I could see this also working for the composite tanks as long as the diameter is the same. You might have to modify the clamp slightly or add a bit of material to make it snug on the tank. The rack itself is intended to mount to a vertical surface.
Where on the trailer were you wanting to mount the tank?
