Punch Bag Brackets, Frames & Fixings
Punch bag brackets, ceiling hooks, chains and swivels are the parts that keep a heavy bag where it should be, and the 108 fixings in this range from Pro Box, Carbon Claw, Tuf Wear, Pro Mountings and Exigo are built to take years of hard hitting. Whether you are hanging a 4ft bag in the garage or fitting out a commercial boxing gym with speedball platforms and floor plates, you will find the right hardware here, with prices from £2.
Which punch bag brackets do you need?
Match the fixing to the wall or ceiling you have, then to the weight of the bag. A punch bag wall bracket is the simplest install on a solid brick or block wall; choose a 3ft arm for heavier bags so the bag swings clear of the wall. A ceiling hook or fixing plate suits exposed joists and concrete ceilings and lets the bag hang centrally, which most boxers prefer because you can move all the way round it. Where neither is an option, a freestanding punch bag frame stands on the floor with no drilling.
Chains, swivels and hanging kits
Most bags ship with a basic chain set, but upgrading to a heavy-duty four-strand chain and a swivel makes a noticeable difference. The swivel stops the chain twisting and lets the bag rotate freely, which protects the bracket and quietens the set-up. Commercial gyms should look at the heavy-duty chain and swivel sets from Pro Box and Carbon Claw, which are built for bags being hit all day. Water bags need their own hanging chain and swivel kit. The full choice is in punch bag chains and accessories.
Speedball platforms and reaction balls
An adjustable speedball platform mounts to the wall and lets you raise or lower the drum so the ball sits at forehead height for every user in the gym. Look at the Pro Box and Tuf Wear platforms here, then pick a ball from speed balls and bags. Floor-to-ceiling ball kits and reaction ball straps are also here.

Frequently asked questions
How do I hang a punch bag from the ceiling?
Find a solid joist or concrete beam, never plasterboard alone. Use a rated ceiling hook or fixing plate bolted through the joist with the anchors supplied, then hang the bag on a chain set with a swivel. Allow clearance to move all the way round the bag.
Can I fit a punch bag bracket to a plasterboard wall?
No. A heavy bag generates far more force than its static weight, and plasterboard or a stud wall will fail. Fit a wall bracket into solid brick, block or concrete with the correct anchor bolts, or use a freestanding frame instead.
What weight punch bag will a wall bracket hold?
Each bracket lists its maximum bag weight on the product page. Heavy-duty brackets from Pro Box and Carbon Claw are designed for full-size bags in commercial use, while lighter brackets suit smaller home bags. Always pick a bracket rated above the weight of the bag you own.
