- Description
- A small punch bag. The item consists of a threaded metal rod, a black plastic base, red plastic punch bag, and manual air pump. The base and punch bag are both screwed onto either end of the rod and the pump is used to inflate the bag with air. Once assembled the punch bag stands less than 40 cm high and is placed on a desk or table, secured by the suction pad on the base. The desktop punch bag can be used for jabs and light punches but is not suitable for hard punches or boxing practise and therefore has the character of a toy for amusement and play and may provide stress relief. The item comes unassembled in a closed cardboard box.
