It comes with all the nuts and bolts you'll need for installation. About Everlast The name Everlast is synonymous with boxing. Renown internationally as a manufacturer of boxing equipment, Everlast started out as a swimwear manufacturer in 1910. Headquartered in the Bronx, NY, the company was founded by 17-year-old Jacob Golomb. The son of a tailor and an avid swimmer, Jacob Golomb was dissatisfied with the durability of swimsuits because they barely lasted a season, so he began making suits that he guaranteed would last for a full year. He proudly gave them the name, Everlast. Although the swimsuits did not last through the years, the name did. Over the next years, Golomb expanded his company into a small retail store that carried a full line of sports equipment. In 1917, a young fighter named Jack Dempsey introduced boxing to Golomb and Everlast. Dempsey asked Golomb to construct protective headgear that would last more than 15 rounds of intensive boxing training. Golomb specially designed the training gear for Dempsey. In 1919, Dempsey won the world's heavyweight championship wearing boxing gloves made for him by Golomb. Everlast became the headquarters for boxing equipment throughout the world. In 1925, Golomb designed elastic-waist trunks to replace the leather-belted trunks then worn by boxers. These trunks, now known as boxer trunks, immediately became famous. Jacob Golomb ran the business until he passed away in the early 1950's and his son, Dan, took over. In 1958, Ben Nadorf joined Everlast and purchased 50% of the company from the Golomb family. When Dan Golomb passed away in 1995, Nadorf purchased the family's remaining 50% interest. Nadorf remained the President and Principle Share Holder of Everlast until October 24, 2000. Everlast men's and women's apparel and accessories continue today to be tremendously successful both inside and outside the ring. In addition, Everlast boxing trunks and equipment remain the proud and undefeated champion of the boxing industry for more than 90 years. The history continues, as the name states. Everlast has a traditional past and a knockout future. What's in the Box? Training bag holder, hardware Manufacturer Warranty 1 year

  Great product June 23, 2008 This holder was perfect for my heavy bag. I mounted it to a ceiling joist in my basement. Always drill holes 1/8" smaller than what you think you need, and the screws will fit tightly. Use a socket wrench to crank the bolts in well.
  It works, could be better. January 14, 2008 This product works fine, but the horizontal bolt's threads will rub on your bag's hook. Can be a little noisy.
  Simple, Classic, Quality January 13, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This product is acceptable.
This is much easier to install if you have a good socket wrench.
The directions are written in extremely small type, and it is difficult to make out the diagrams. However, this is not a problem because, unless you are mechanically challenged, the item is self-explanatory. It is much easier to install the lag bolts into a wood rafter if you drill some small pilot holes first. A small hole will not reduce the holding power of the screw. The directions do not tell you this. They could be improved if Everlast were to tell you that this is an option, and instruct you what diameter hole was appropriate.
The nuts, bolts, and lock-washers are standard items that have been used without problems for a century. Another reviewer complained that they loosen up quickly, but I can only imagine that he has the lock washers in the wrong spots. If it is assembled according to the directions, and tightened sufficiently with a wrench, adjustable wrench, or socket wrench, it will remain tight. If you try to tighten it with pliers, you may have a hard time keeping it together, but that is not a fault of the item itself; pliers are not the correct tool for the job.
This item would be better if it included some good rubber bushings. Anything that reduces the vibration in your rafters would improve this item. Fortunately, it's easy to make something that will serve this purpose.
Summary: a tried-and-true method of hanging a punching bag.

  Secure Mount of Our 80-lb Heavy Bag January 21, 2007 8 out of 9 found this review helpful
I haven't had experience with bag stands (we don't have the room for one), but if you can mount your heavy bag to the ceiling, this is the holder for you.
As pictured, the holder comes with bolts, locking washers and nuts to hold the U-shaped piece to the ceiling mount. If you don't tighten the nuts sufficiently (or fail to use the locking washers) you may have problems with them slowly loosening over time. This is your chance to show off your tightening skills.
In my opinion, the included lag nuts are best installed directly into a wood cross beam. (I actually cut away the just enough drywall from the ceiling in order to get access to the wood beam.)
You'll learn just how powerful your triceps are by the time you've tightened the lag nuts. Think of the install as your warm-up for your first session with the heavy bag.
