Hi,
I know there is plenty of info about hanging punchbags online, but I would like to hang one on a wall in my garage which is under (i.e. part of) my house. I assume the the wall is load bearing and as such want to be sure that I am not going to do any damage by hanging a punchbag.
The bag weighs approx 35kg (75lb).
I have the following bracket:

However, I don't have the fittings, is something like the following what I need? (if not, please recommend an alternative, are these ones long enough?):

I assume that I want to drill into the actual brick rather than the mortar?
Because the garage is under the house, the damp course runs along the wall, about 3/4 of the way up. I am reasonably certain that all the fittings will be above this, but if I decide it could do with being lower, is it ok to go in underneath this?
Thanks for any info you are able to share.
