Question
Do you know of any way to mount a speed bag platform directly to an i-beam?  Does anyone make brackets of that sort.  Thank you.

Answer
Hi Mark,

Actually I have never really seen a speed bag board mounted directly to an I-Beam only. I believe you could put the board up with bolts through the I-beam edges, but it would be difficult to mount the swivel, as well as stabilize the board edges with brackets over the board.

I'm just not sure how that could be done. I don't know of any company that makes specific hanging brackets for that.

sorry I could be of more help.  Good luck with your situation.

sincerely,
