    U Bolt swivel recommendation?

    Hey guys. Do you guys have an recommendations on U bolt swivels. My title chain link is garbage. It was messed up from the day I got it so I'm going to switch over to a U Bolt. I'm not going to be doing any freestyle bagging like you guys. Just straight and circle punches.

      I was looking at these two





      Didn't know if the extra $10 was necessary.

        I actually have this particular Title swivel:



        As well as this Everlast one:



        They are almost completely identical when held next to each other. Same design, ball-bearing, equally smooth and fast. The Everlast though edges out the Title on a few points which I will list:

        -Fit and finish is nicer on the Everlast, smoother chroming, not as many rough edges just looks better made.

        -The Everlast comes with 4 nuts, bolts and washers so that you can attach it through the platform. The Title comes with 4 self taping screws of a smaller diameter. Worst part is the holes drilled in the base of the Title swivel are smaller so even if you wanted to go to Ace Hardware and pick up some bolts like the Everlast came with it won't work unless you drill the holes out larger.

        -Lastly the Everlast is half the price for a better product IMHO!

          I'm not sure where you're located but if you've got a Play-It-Again Sports by you (used/resale sports gear shop), they sometimes have new Everlast gear in there. I picked up my first U-bolt there for $20, it was an Everlast and is rock solid and looks nice. It might save ya $10+shipping and time?
