Projecta BHD18M Battery Hold Down Clamp, 18 cm, 225 mm Bolts

Quick answer

The Projecta BHD18M is the Battery Hold Down Clamp, 18 cm, 225 mm Bolts. An 18 cm battery hold down with mid length 225 mm bolts.

It sits between the 200 mm BHD14 and the 250 mm BHD18.

Measure from the tray mount to the top of the battery before choosing.

Keep the clamp off the terminals.

Check the tray bolts at each service, as engine bay vibration loosens hardware over time. Measure the battery you plan to use, including terminals, before ordering. Fit the battery with a proper hold down, and check it again after the first rough trip. Route cables away from hot exhaust parts and sharp edges, and use grommets through panels. Disconnect the negative terminal first and reconnect it last whenever you work near the battery. Use cable rated for the current and length of the run, and fuse it close to the battery. White or green crust on a terminal is corrosion, and it adds resistance to the circuit. Engine bay heat and vibration are hard on connections, so check them at each service.
