Product Description
Not every mounting point is flat and out in the open. Seat tracks, tunnels and floor ribs often leave the best anchor hole in a recess or behind an obstruction. The Seatbelt Planet 6" Double Bend Bracket is a seat belt mounting bracket made for those tight places.
What It Is
This bracket has two bends, which offset the belt's mounting point from the anchor. That offset lets the belt clear an obstruction or come out at a better angle while the bracket stays solidly bolted to the vehicle.
- 6" double bend design
- Made for mounting seat belts in tight places
- Yellow zinc plated finish
- Sold individually; choose a quantity of 1 to 4
Where It Helps
- Clearing a seat track, tunnel or floor rib between the anchor and the belt
- Raising the buckle end of a belt so it sits beside the seat cushion
- Offsetting a mount in a recessed floor pan
- Retrofitting belts in classic vehicles with unusual seat layouts
Installation Tips
Bolt the bracket to a structurally sound anchor point using proper seat belt hardware and a backing plate where the metal is thin. Orient the bend so the belt pulls in a straight line toward the occupant, and make sure nothing can rub through the webbing. Tighten all bolts securely and test the belt before driving. If the anchor location is questionable, have a qualified shop look at it.
Choosing the Right Bracket
Seatbelt Planet offers several bracket shapes: flat brackets to extend a mount in a straight line, angle brackets to change the direction of a belt, and double bend brackets like this one to offset it. Look at where the belt needs to start and where the solid anchor is, then pick the shape that connects the two without twisting the webbing.
Need Help?
Send us a photo of your mounting area and the belt you are using, and we will help you decide which bracket and hardware kit to use. Seatbelt Planet hardware kits include the bolts, nuts, lock washers and backing plates most installs need.
Safety Reminders
Never mount a bracket to thin sheet metal without reinforcement, and avoid stacking brackets to make up distance. After installation, pull firmly on the belt in the direction it would load in a sudden stop and confirm nothing moves. Inspect the bracket and bolts whenever you service the belts.
Finish
The yellow zinc plating resists corrosion and gives the bracket a clean, period-appropriate look under seats and on floor pans. It holds up well in daily drivers as well as show cars.
