> 24 hourThese have bearings verses the brass bushing style. I found the brass bushing style made noise and didnt last. These are direct replacement for Eastern Jungle gym hangars and are quiet so far. I have had them of a couple of weeks now... well see but so far so good.

> 24 hourThis hardware is fantastic. It is silent, zero creaking or anything like that. The only noise are the chains slack and some zip ties worked for that. Weve all been at the park with the deafening creaky swing, or the cheap unsafe swing hardware at a friends house. This is not that. I have been complemented more than once on the hardware for the swing, Im not even kidding. My friends and family must be SUPER cool. But seriously it looks and acts high quality

> 24 hourSo these are great, BUT I am really disappointed that the seller or manufacturer wont just come out and say what type of mounting hardware to use. If you read through the questions and answers, everyone wants to know what screws to use, but they just keep saying to consult a professional. Seriously? A professional swing set installer to help you with the simple install of a DYI product you did not buy from them? How much is that going to cost? If we were wanting to hire a professional, we would not be buying this on Amazon. Are they that afraid of the liability that they wont share this top-secret info with us? I used the 3/8 stainless steel screws that others recommended. But the heads on the screws are too small so you have to use a large washer to get it to work. My only concern with this is it seems the washer is now what is really holding everything together, but it is the thinnest, weakest part of the system. Please Jungle Gym Kingdom, just tell us how you designed these hangers to be installed. Are we supposed to use 1/2 screws instead? Is there some special fastener out there you have in mind? I put mine in a 4x6 beam. Im sure most people are installing into beams. Give us some help here.

> 24 hourVery sturdy but extremely challenging to find the hardware if you are a novice. Put these on a 4 x 6 beam of pressure treated lumber for a swingset. Did research and decided a carriage bolt was the only way to go, I wanted something keeping this on the wood no matter what (my dad said a lag bolt could theoretically come lose inside the wood). The head on the carriage bolt had to be forced past the little metal part on these hangers, and then held like that during install but they worked. It’s true that the hex thing underneath the head won’t let the bolt get completely flush with these hangers. But they’re not going anywhere. Used 1/2 x 7” galvanized (corrosion resistant) carriage bolts into the 4x6, then a lock washer and large “OD washer” then a 1/2” nut on the end. I had to buy a drill attachment that was long enough to go into the 4x6 (was actually a 3.5 x 5.5 beam). To keep the carriage bolt from wiggling out of the swing hanger during install, we pre-assembled each one (slid the bolts in and pushed them past the metal protruding thing) and kept them like that as we put the bolts into the wood. Otherwise they kept coming back past the protruding thing. But it wasn’t hard. (See last photo for what I’m talking about) Looking back I would have made sure I knew what we were doing for hardware before the day of installation...I forgot that hardware was not included. Huge hassle if you’re new to building stuff. But they’re very secure now at least. We put them 18” apart. I also plan to tighten them in a month or two because I read that pressure treated wood is swollen when you buy it, so hardware can loosen a little as it dries out. I feel very secure knowing the washers and nuts are keeping these bolts in, and I can manually check and tighten them.

> 24 hourWarning!!! Do not be fooled as I was. The picture shows hex bolts holding the brackets. It also shows lag bolts. I was lead to believe the swing set hangers included hex bolts. DO NOT USE LAG BOLTS to hold a something that a child will use. The company sent galvanized lag bolts. You MUST use threaded bolts. Lag bolts may loosen over time and the swing may fail. My low rating was due to the misleading photograph.

> 24 hourThese hangers were as advertised. They are certainly heavy duty, and the provided lag screws are rated for use in pressure treated wood (which was my application). Im using these as swing hangers for my kids. 2 normal swings, 1 glider swing that both sit on. Installation was moderately tricky as the holes werent a standard measurement on center (2-1/4 I think? Dont quote me. But an even 2 would have been easier to measure and mark) and a pre-drilled guide hole is necessary. I think I used 1/4 drill bit. My impact driver made light work of the lags with a socket adapter. My kids have been using them almost daily for the past month and they have held up well! I would definitely recommend these hangers.
