I'm considering buying two of these to hang Olympic rings. I know it's made for a punching bag, but would you recommend this?

I believe with the right length bolts it would be sturdy enough for the rings; however, I would highly recommend changing the nut it comes with out for a lock nut with nylon threads.

Yes on mounts because of the swivel design and maybe on lag bolts:It depends on your total weight divided by two and if your doing full body weight or partial suspension vs dynamic gymnastic routines. If it was me i would install/mount a 2x4 between rafter joist and replace lag bolts with same diameter machine bolt,lock washers and nut. This is a simple modification and it will be SOLID! If you decide to go with lag bolts I would always inspect prior to use.I like your idea and I may try it myself, good luck!

it holds my 40lb no problem and with a decent pilot hole and drill socket, a sinch to install. noisey metal on metal grinding when punching.

I think that would work fine, just make sure you remove the plastic film form the back before punching the holes. :)

The action is good depending on what size bag you attach to it. The platform is pretty solid and as long as you mount it to a solid structure you should be happy with the action. It all depends on your skill level. What is fast to me may not be fast to you. I am not a boxer or novice on the speed bag but I am happy with the action.

I would always suggest taking rings off when lifting. Less risk of hurting the ring or yourself. Plus, the material is thinner than I expected, you'd probably puncture the material.

We use these them for exercise and/or grappling on the floor. They are of good quality but with Olympic weights I am not sure how they will stand the test of time. I do recommend them though.

I use it to make jewelry so people can have extra rope if they need it. It is very strong. I'm sure it would hold, but wonder about the carabiners.

I am new at this too, so don´t worry...Its perfect for that, I bought the ¨Everlast Double End Striking Bag¨ and its perfect for avoiding drilling the floor, i filled it with water and works great, you can also try sand. Hope the information helps, enjoy and stay active!

This particular bag is meant to be hung, but if you have a stand suitable to keep the bag upright while being hit then I see no reason why that wouldn't work. I had to add some support in my ceiling to hang this bag for the kids, meanwhile they stood it up against something and went at it.

I have used them on every piece of equipment at the gym that I go to and that does include Olympic bars (straight bars, z-bars/curl bars). I've used them on the ropes for my rope pull downs and I have used them on hammer strength equipment. I absolutely love them and they're very versatile. Let me know if that answers your question.

Unless you are squatting 100lbs and less, this bar would not be the one I would get if any squatting above 100lbs is your aim. I would only squat lightweight with this (my wife) and me (for warming up and just stretching), so I just clean it off the floor. It is a nice bar for curling and pressing but I think I am going to just go ahead and buy the Olympic bar , so I can only recommend to buy the Olympic full bar and especially if you are buying a rack. I am not sure if that answers your question but my opinion.

I used it to hold a lot of stuffed animals to a ceiling, worked great for that. Not sure what type of weight or tensil strength youneed, but should work for small holes. Since it is a fishing net I bet it holds up to some pretty good weight. Would not use it thoughfor the entire enclosure..

I'd guess it might hold the weight, but it would be borderline, and the space is small enough it might be problematic. However, it's a nice rack, and I'd think that worst case scenario you might want to use part of the bag first and just stack the rest that would fit in it.

Yes, you can put it on a punching bag stand, they run from about $99.00. I have mine hung from the rafters in the basement.

The Elite pull up bar is strong enough to do pull ups and chin ups, but there is movement in the unit even with the stabilizer bar. I don't think that it would be tall enough or stable enough for rings. Its a great piece of portable equipment but too much movement for rings, I think. Also side poles would interfere with doing rings.

I am using it to punch velcro and it works great! I would say yes to all you questions, but on extra thick material you would want to use caution to be sure you are not taxing the tool That said it is the most heavy duty of three leather hole punchers I have used. Hope that helps.

I use it for jewelry. I dont imagine it will hold alot of weight and function correctly

I have used it for a banner and it works great. If the banner does not have grommets then use the plastic ring with set screw and put it behind banner to keep it in place.
