I bought a couple on ebay but not after getting ripped off by one seller. I bought and paid for a metal one and was sent plastic. I finally found a couple, but I made sure to verify with the seller that they were going to ship me what they had advertised. I told them I wanted one identical to the picture, not a plastic one and was willing to pay whatever it took to get it. Of course, I didn't tell them I would pay whatever it took to get it, but they are out there.

Beware ebay seller "The Brown Box". They pulled that scam on me and offered to pay back, but not until after I went through a huge hassle and made lots of threats. They told me they didn't know this would happen, but for several weeks afterwards they continued to do the same to other buyers.

Yeah I just got two from two diffrent sellers, 25.00 for one, found some on amazon but not a member and listings were kinda confusing!
Thanx

MODEL 4440 pro everlast swivel

I have a fairly new everlast bag 4214 that I paid 42.00 from everlast years ago and never used it after I go the everlast 4204!

If anyone wants to trade a swivel or two for it??????

I am looking for the 4440 model but would still trade for others.

I just got a reply from this website that they have the all metal in stock. Not sure how many they have though. Im just gonna try and super glue the hook on the plastic one. Other than the hook unscrewing I really like the plastic one.

I'm new here and recently got into using a speed bag and I have been having the same issue with the plastic swivel setup.. let us know how the superglue turns out.. as it is so far every 3-4 minutes or so i just spin it and it screws itself back in..

WARNING: All listed Everlast "Metal S-hook" swivels are not alike.

The swivel shown on the box set above is not a two piece 4440, but appears to be more like this: Metal S-Hook

take a good look at that picture link above and show me the thread attachment on the base that attaches to the board.
(* hint: the wording on the left side of the box is not english. hmmm. There are lots of european "metal S-Hooks" and they are not the #4440.)

Be sure you are getting this swivel, and if you look closely, that is not the one shown on the box. You have to dig around on the fitness-equipment site to find it.

Be sure and ask for an "Everlast model #4440 two piece S-Hook". The company may give it their own model part number, but that doesn't change the #4440 on the brand.

what about the other style ball and hook

what about the steel ball and hook 2 piece with the plastic hexagon backplate? are they still pretty decent even though u cant torque the back plate as much as the steel

I'm not sure exactly which one you are asking about. IF it is the old Everlast #4440 with a plastic base (attaches to board, and has plastic threads for the metal bag attachment) Then yes, I have used these. I have had several. The problem as you state, is you can't torque them down very hard. I normally give the bottom part a good crank with a wide mouth vice grip Pliar, but this also can strip the plastic.

It doesn't change the fact that the metal S-Hook attachment shank is going to strike the metal ball housing. That is where your report metal flaking would probabably occur, and not where the metal threads were connected.

I was actually referring to the swivel on the bottom of that page. They have since changed the wording to "EVERLAST® Speed Bag SWIVEL with Plastic Flange".



I finally got around to super glueing the metal eye hook into the plastic ball and have worked it for about 2 hours within the past few days and so far it hasnt unscrewed yet. It was to the point of having to screw it back in about every 10-15 minutes. I will post a video within the next couple days with the plastic swivel.
