Jensen SH142 2 in. x .38 Nylon Bushing Swing Hanger - Residential

This is a residential light use only swing hanger. Nylon bushing hanger with 3/8" x 2" threaded bolt and washer with lock tight nut. Great for glider support. Can be used in wooden or pipe swing sets. Galvanized to retard rust. This product should last 2 years in harsh conditions and up to 5 years in optimal conditions. Some conditions may require replacement sooner. Installation: To attach hanger first determine spacing by consulting ASTM 1148 diagram. Mark wood beam with correct spacing. Using a power drill with a 3/8" bit, drill holes through wood. To prevent a protrusion, this hanger must have a counter sunk nut. To accomplish this, take a 1" drill bit and drill down 3/4" on top of wood beam at the top of the 3/8" hole through wood. Put swing hanger up through 3/8" hole in wood, place washer on top of swing hanger and attach lock tight nut. Threads should not protrude more than 2 threads past nut, nor more than .12" above top of wood. Verify that the hanger triangle with the nylon bearing is even with the wood. Shaft of the bolt must be completely in wood. If not the stress point will be on the bolt instead of the bearing and can result in breakage and injuries. When in use this hanger may squeak and this is normal. Grease or oil bushings if squeaking noises are heard. You will need to use S-hooks or shackles from the chain to the swing hangers. Make sure the S-hooks are closed to within .04 to meet ASTM safety standards. To do this you will need to use our S-hook pliers or a regular pair of channel lock pliers. Warning: Once the S-hooks have been opened they will have to be replaced to avoid injuries from coming open and/or breaking. Make sure that if you are using shackles they are also tightened. You will need to use S-hooks or H-shackles from the chain to the swing hangers. Make sure the S-hooks are closed to within .04 to meet ASTM safety standards. To do this you will need to use our S-hook pliers or a regular pair of channel lock pliers.

Protective surfacing that meets ASTM F1292 must be installed under swing set and extends at least six feet from the sides of the set and twice the height of the top bar in the front and back of swing set. Protective surfacing is one of the most important things that you can do to reduce the likelihood of serious injuries. The new CPSC standard states the owner/operator of the swing set needs to post warning signs outside the use zone that are readily visible to the intended viewer and alert them to the potential hazard in time to take appropriate action. This message may be on either a sign or label outside the use zone. Signs should be posted that state the appropriate age group for the swing set. Not for Adults. Adults should supervise children at all times. Do not allow children to stand on or use unsafely. Do not allow set to be used if damaged. Remove helmets, drawstrings or accessories around the neck which are all known to create head entrapment or entanglement hazards.
