Fuel Tank Strap

I'm putting a 20+ gal aluminum fuel tank in my kolb MIII. It rests on a 0.125"
thick aluminum tray which is riveted to the fuselage cage.  My question is how
to strap to the tray.  Those of you with similar tanks, do you use straps and
if so, are they metal or nylon.  I've seen nylon straps used before on an aluminum
tank installation but am concerned that they might not be strong enough.
