I was goin to post this in the reviews section but I figured it would better here.
I received the swivel I ordered from
http://www.fitness-equipment.com/acatalog/Fitness_Equipment_Speed_bag_Hanging_Systems_30.htm l

The third item down.

There was discussion that the swivel pictured and described is not like the one received by some people.

Well the one I got today is exactly like the one pictured.

I am very happy with it "no actual use yet though" But the quality is as expected or hoped for.

I just thought I would post this as finding good ball swivel seams to be hard to do.

Oh the price is $23

Good to know it's possible to buy one of those again.

Thanks for letting us know!

Great to hear. put it on the board and punch it up with a few bags. then get back with the action. I'd get a few if it's got a good smooth action.

I'd also like to hear about the quality of the sound. the last batch of Everlast Ballhooks I bought had a higher more annoying "chank" than earlier models due to different metal.

Great idea. A video would be the best way to demonstrate the swivel.

no I have not tried it. I am still working on getting my platform set up.
It could be a while sorry to say.

Three piece all steel, heavy duty - 3 1/4 inches across and that plate is over 1/4 thick, ball is solid. I will need to hog out the four mounting holes to accept my 1/4 inch bolts...maybe this weekend.

You could go down to #10 size cap screws. I've use them a lot, using washers on top.
