What is the weight rating for this product? I'd like to use it to hang a swing but I want it to be safe.
938680
Along the major axis the weight rating is described as 24 kilonewtons which is more than five thousand pounds. If you are going to use a carabiner for something like that, you might want to consider a twist-locking kind of carabiner.

I don't know the weight rating but it doesn't seem like it can hold that much

To second Matthew C's response one kilonewton is about 225 pounds of force. Along the major axis of the carabiner it is rated to 24kn. This 'biner is meant for more than just your keys. It might not look like much to people who have no bearing on climbing what-so-ever but this carabiner is definitely stronger than one ton. I have these on all of my cams and routinely entrust my life to these things. I've taken 20 foot falls onto these things and they don't even bat the proverbial eyelash. Though plenty strong I would also second the recommendation to use a locking 'biner.

24 Kilonewtons is equal to 5,395 (lbs) pound force. So, yes you can hang a swing with it but a locking gate would always be a safer option.

Double check on their website but this is a climbing biner rated for 1 ton if I'm not mistaken... Not home to check on the actual product for you.

The chain is heavier than a normal (cheap) swing...I don't know the rating, but I am near 300 lbs and it supports me! Should be no problem for kids or average size adults. Very good quality.

I hung my swing on a tree branch. You have to buy additional chain and hardware to hang it but if done properly, it works just fine. I tried using part of a rubber hose to protect the tree but this prevented the swing from swinging more freely. I had to remove the hose for it to swing properly.

It's probably okay. It says it can be used as a wall or ceiling pull up bar. If it couldn't handle the weight, they would have to specify how much it could handle as a ceiling mount versus how much it could handle as a wall mount. I have mine hanging from the ceiling. It's super sturdy. Nothing will pull it down...even a force of nature.

I'm sorry I can't help you with this. I have only used it for an adult swing. I might mention, tho, that it can be somewhat unstable if you swing vigorously.

I tested this well built swing with 200 lb. weight before using. It's built for a small toddler so weight limit is not an issue. You will not be disappointed - the swing is very high quality (materials and construction)!

I have one of these one a swing that the kids use. Highly recommended . Have had no problems with two kids in the swing spinning and swinging. The device says "45kN," which is 10,000 pounds of force. I don't know that I'd want to suspend a car from this thing, but nonetheless is pretty strong.

If it is mounted in a rafter stud you should have no problem. I am not sure of the actual weight of the fixtures and bulbs, but mounted per the instructions you should not have any problem. (Don't try to climb or swing on it.)

My daughter is about 30 pounds, and she swings on it all the time. When playing with her, I'll sometimes briefly swing on it, and I'm about 90 pounds. I don't use it for any length of time, so I can't really say how well it would hold up if I used it often, but it seems sturdy.

It's described as 'commercial grade' and has a very strong chain. We have it attached to a large cedar play structure from costco and it feels very sturdy. I would say this swing is perfect for kids under 3, but since the manufacturer's recommended age is 3 and up I assume it would accommodate heavier weight.

I hung mine about 2.5 fit from ground to enable my daughter to get on/push off with her feet and allow for slack from branch. It was easy to hang, after determining which tree branch to use. I used tow straps around the branch, then hung the swing. My daughter loves it.

We have had a 100-115 pounds on the swing with no problem. It is a very sturdy swing and the grandchildren love it.

We have had someone who weighs about 250 lbs. on it with no issues. It is stated to hold up to 300 lbs. It is a fun swing and we use it often!!

I am not sure what the manufacturer would recommend, but I think that up to about 2-3 pounds you'd be okay. If you have that much weight, though, you probably need to use more than one hook. I think the heaviest thing I have hanging is probably about 1.5 pounds, and it's on 2 hooks.

It depends on the hardware that you use to install the swing. I went to ace hardware and with the hardwRe I purchased it holds at least 250lbs.

If you are using the swing with the rainy day support bar and it is hard mounted the strap swing can hold over a 100lbs. If you are using any other support bar or are using a soft mount then it could be less
