Staten Tools 18" and 24" Hook Sheave PIN Upgrade set works with greenlee/current/maxis
18" & 24" Hook Sheave
Pin Upgrade Set
FITS 18" & 24" HOOK SHEAVES (GREENLEE® 652 & 653 CLASS) • TUGGER® & EASY TUGGER® PULLERS
Drop your sheave onto an already-run pull in seconds — no tools, no fighting retaining clips. The Staten Tools Hook Sheave Pin Upgrade Set replaces the factory sheave pin and retaining clips on 18" and 24" hook-type cable sheaves with a heavy-duty 0.95" quick-release hairpin cotter pin system — an upsized upgrade over the OEM-style sheave pin and retaining clips used on Greenlee® 652 & 653 class sheaves.
What's Included: Cross-Drilled Steel Pin + (2) Hairpin Cotter Pins |
Quick-Release: Snap Off, Drop Onto a Live Line, Snap Back On |
⚡ Add a Sheave to a Live Pull — In Seconds
Every electrician knows the problem: the rope is already run and you need to get a sheave on the line. With factory retaining clips, that means prying stiff clips off with a screwdriver, wrestling the pin out, and hoping nothing goes flying into the trench. On a ladder or in a tight pull room, it's a two-hand, ten-minute fight.
With the Staten Tools hairpin upgrade, it takes seconds:
|
1
Pop a cotter pin off by hand — no tools |
2
Slide the pin out and drop the sheave free of the yoke |
3
Lay it over the already-run rope, pin back through, snap on — done |
No re-threading the rope. No pulling the line back. No fighting factory clips mid-pull. Reposition, add, or swap sheaves anywhere along a run without breaking down the pull.
It's also the perfect fix for the most commonly lost and worn part of a hook sheave — a bent, scored, or missing pin leaves your sheave (and your whole pull) dead in the water. Keep this set in the gang box and never wait on an OEM part again.
🔧 The Hairpin Cotter Pin Upgrade
We replaced the fiddly OEM-style retaining clips with heavy-duty zinc-plated hairpin cotter pins (R-clips) — the same style riggers and mechanics trust everywhere:
- ✓ True Quick-Release — on and off by hand in seconds, even with gloves on; no screwdriver, no pliers
- ✓ Fast Sheave Removal — free the sheave from the hook/yoke instantly to load it onto a live line
- ✓ Positive Spring Retention — the pin's gripping leg locks on so vibration won't walk it out mid-pull
- ✓ Reusable — unlike factory clips that fatigue and fly off, these snap on and off thousands of times
- ✓ Two Cotter Pins Included — one for each end for double-secured retention
💪 Built for the Jobsite
- Precision-machined solid steel pin — 7.25" long, 0.95" diameter, polished corrosion-resistant finish
- Cross-drilled at both ends for cotter pin retention on either side
- Slides smoothly through the yoke frame and sheave bushings — no binding, no hammering
- Zinc-plated spring steel cotter pins resist rust and fatigue
- Fits 18" and 24" hook-type cable sheaves with a 0.95" pin bore

🔗 Compatibility
Fitment note: This is an upsized 0.95" diameter pin. Verify your sheave's yoke and bushing bore before ordering — factory Greenlee® 652/653 sheaves use a smaller-diameter OEM pin.
📦 What's in the Box
- (1) Steel sheave pin — 7.25" long × 0.95" diameter, cross-drilled both ends (6.75" hole-to-hole)
- (2) Heavy-duty zinc-plated hairpin cotter pins — 3.5" long
💡 PRO TIP: Order a spare set for every sheave in your trailer. A backup pin set costs less than 15 minutes of crew downtime — and a lot less than a stalled pull with the inspector on site.
