Hi, i bought a pull up bar (pic related), and i want to instal the heavy bag like in the picture, but i dont want the straps/chains to get twisted.

So my question is if its suitable to connect it with a carabiner-swivel-carabiner?

I'm worried if the weight resistance will not be enough or if you can tell me another details i need to take into account, i will appreciate it.

*I will post more pictures

This is a closer look at the connection, what i want to do with the swivel is to avoid the tiwst on the straps.

use a bigger carabiner? - would avoid the twist. As would a sling strap - need to be short tho, longer, moire the bag swings. Problem with using a swivel, dont know if you actually want that to rotate, because, it maybe rotate bit more than you like. If you cant find bigger/heavy duty carabiner/swivel anywhere else local, try boat suppliers/chandlers, they'll have shitloads.

Prob. better asking >>>/fit/ as well, now i think about it.

Is it really going to swivel all that much? It seems the straps are too short to twist around much, and the links won't swivel at all.

Well the swing is better for a boxing trainning since you work the bag and need to move like a real fight not to stay static.

So the swing its actually a good thing but i dont know the effect that type of links would give to the bag.

Our 4 ton hoist at work is basically a swivel and carabiner
It's just a matter of finding the right size. Look at McMaster Carr.
If they don't have it, you don't need it.
