I would wind some rope or paracord around the top hook, perhaps one layer, just to pad the hook and prevent the metal on metal contact. When the rope wears thin, you can just replace the rope again. Very cheap and easy to inspect and remedy.
How do you feel about springs? (Not to reduce metal on metal wear... obviously nothing changes adding in a bit of metal ... I mean as a completely unrelated question.) [EDIT: Fixed autocorrect error.]
Spring will help with shock absorption on the bag holder, eg. a bracket or wooden beam etc. If they are strong & can hold the bag comfortably, you've got a great way to protect your wall/ceiling.
Do I have to tie the part on the punching bag where the 4 metal parts are stitched for the chain or just the bracket and chain like you demonstrated in the video.
Great question! We don't believe this is necessary as these 4 points evenly distribute the weight & don't sheer nearly as much as the top hook. With the being said you can absolutely place rope inbetween them if you like :)
I’ve done this twice now, and both times, my bag has fallen down within two weeks...I’m using Paradies and following your instructions to the T....any ideas on what may be going wrong?
Hey Stacey, if the bag were to fall we believe it would be due to the knots loosening, we would suggest trying alternative, tighter knots that would be more secure like half hitches etc. Hope this helps Stacey!
Yes & no mate, our team would recommend a good spring to take the stress of the bracket etc. Otherwise we don't see why a spring may be necessary. Just depends on your needs! :)
please people learn some knot skills. In every video they do the ugliest,dumbest, stupidest excuses for a knot. then they cover it up with tape. if the knot fails that tapes ripping apart. the tapes pointless
Great tip, thanks. Possibly not as good a solution, but what I do is I put some electrical tape around the hook so you don't have metal on metal.
Good idea!
Johnny B, and that tape wears out in no time leaving again metal to metal!
Aexoero V well you can put duck tape
tape on some rubber foam, use till you hear metal on metal sound, then change foam.

Just put shrink tube and keep shrinking them till its nice and thick. Let me know if it works
I just bought a bag for the home and was thinking of something like this. Thanks for the tip
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much
You're most welcome
Thanks for the tips. I just recently bought one and I didn't know how to hang mine or where to hang it safely.
Stacy I. Wegener same I was thinking of hanging out side near my tree now I think it’s a bad idea
Thank you sir
All the best
nice trick. in India we call such useful tricks as "jugaad". only the pros know these tricks. :D
L that’s a pretty cool thing to learn. Thx
If I use a chain swivel do I still need to use spring attach to it?
Only if you think its required,
If there isn't alot of vibration from your bracket,
You should be safe without one :)

Punch Equipment thanks! I’ll try it
Awesome information! Thank you! This may be a ridiculous question but where can I buy a 20 cent piece of rope from to get started?
Hi, you can find the rope at a local warehouse store or possibly a supermarket.
That’s why my teacher has a green strap in between the metal and a hook I was wondering why
Where that hanger will be available sir I want to buy it
Australia only at this point my friend :)
do you think a spring is needed for a 60-70 pound bag?
Yes & no mate, our team would recommend a good spring to take the stress of the bracket etc.
Otherwise we don't see why a spring may be necessary.
Just depends on your needs! :)
@@PUNCHEQUIPMENT thank you mate
how long do you keep the rope on there before replacing it with regular use?
Hi, it should last around 1 year before replacement.
What thickness was the rope used? Thanks
Usually thicker than 6-7mm should be enough :)

Luis Villarreal what knot would you use and how do you do it?
