With a durable 1\" (25 mm) shank at the core, this family uses interchangeable ball configurations in stainless steel or nickel-plated carbon steel, offering 2-ball and 3-ball kits that cover a wide spectrum of working loads. When every connection must hold under demanding conditions, these kits deliver dependable performance—from light-to-heavy configurations—up to 3500 kg depending on the chosen setup.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eCore advantages\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eRapid ball swaps without reconfiguring the entire assembly, preserving time on the job.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSolid 1\" shank provides a stable anchor point for high-load attachments.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eInterchangeable 2-ball and 3-ball kits tailor the attachment point to load geometry and rigging needs.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMaterial options to meet environmental demands: stainless steel for corrosion resistance in washdown, marine, or outdoor settings; nickel-plated carbon steel for cost-effective, durable general use.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHigh-load capability: up to 3500 kg depending on kit configuration, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eKit configurations and load ratings\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConfigurations are designed to cover common rigging scenarios with precise load ratings:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e2-Ball Kit — Stainless Steel, Shank 3\/4\" (19 mm); Balls 1 7\/8\" (≈47.6 mm) and 50 mm; Capacity 2000 kg\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e2-Ball Kit — Stainless Steel, Shank 1\" (25 mm); Balls 1 7\/8\" and 50 mm; Capacity 3500 kg\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e2-Ball Kit — Nickel Plated Carbon Steel, Shank 3\/4\" (19 mm); Balls 1 7\/8\" and 50 mm; Capacity 2000 kg\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e2-Ball Kit — Nickel Plated Carbon Steel, Shank 1\" (25 mm); Balls 1 7\/8\" and 50 mm; Capacity 2000 kg\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e3-Ball Kit — Stainless Steel, Shank 1\" (25 mm); Balls 1 7\/8\", 50 mm, and 2 5\/16\" (≈59 mm); Capacity 3500 kg\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e3-Ball Kit — Nickel Plated Carbon Steel, Shank 1\" (25 mm); Balls 1 7\/8\", 50 mm, and 2 5\/16\"; Capacity 3500 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eMaterials and environments\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhy these materials matter: stainless variants (02TY, 02T1, 02T3) are designed to resist moisture, salt, and washdown exposure, helping maintain smooth operation and extend service life in marine, forestry, and outdoor work. Nickel-plated carbon steel options (02N6S, 02N7S, 02T8) deliver strong, reliable performance for everyday rigging where extreme corrosion exposure isn’t a primary concern, while still delivering solid load ratings and dependable ball-and-shank performance.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eWho benefits from the Convert-a-ball Shank 1\" system\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRigging professionals and crane operators who need quick, secure ball-size swaps without dismantling the entire assembly. Teams working in marine environments, washdown areas, or outdoor settings will appreciate the corrosion-resistant stainless options.

If you’re prioritizing cost-effectiveness for general-purpose rigging, nickel-plated carbon steel (02N6S, 02N7S, 02T8) provides strong performance. Consider the load demands of your application: the 1\" shank with a 3-ball stainless configuration delivers the highest capacity at 3500 kg, ideal for demanding lift points, while 2-ball configurations offer flexibility for multiple smaller loads.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eCare and best practices\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInspect the shank and ball interfaces before each job for wear or deformation. Clean any debris from the ball pockets, and apply appropriate lubrication to moving interfaces if recommended by your safety guidelines. Store components in a dry environment to preserve corrosion resistance, and follow manufacturer safety guidelines to ensure every connection remains secure during operation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003ctable cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" class=\"ProductVariationTable\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eItem\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDescription\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eShank Dia\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBall Dia\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCapacity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e02N6S\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 BALL Kit - Nickel Plated Carbon Steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3\/4\" (19mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 7\/8\" \u0026amp; 50mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2000Kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e02TY\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 BALL Kit - Stainless Steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3\/4\" (19mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 7\/8\" \u0026amp; 50mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2000Kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e02N7S\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 BALL Kit - Nickel Plated Carbon Steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\" (25mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 7\/8\" \u0026amp; 50mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3500Kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e02T1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 BALL Kit - Stainless Steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\" (25mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 7\/8\" \u0026amp; 50mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3500Kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e02T3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3 BALL Kit - Stainless Steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\" (25mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 7\/8\", 50mm \u0026amp; 2 5\/16\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3500Kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e02T8\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3 BALL Kit - Nickel Plated Carbon Steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\" (25mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 7\/8\", 50mm \u0026amp; 2 5\/16\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3500Kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Trojan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48948708016413,"sku":"02TH","price":116.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0864\/1072\/3613\/files\/trojan-tow-balls-convert-a-ball-shank-1-stainless-steel-02th-02th-ball-kit-1191967046.jpg?v=1772755035","url":"https:\/\/actionoutdoors.kiwi\/products\/trojan-convert-a-ball-shank-1-inch-stainless-steel-02th-for-heavy-duty-rigging-professionals","provider":"Action Outdoors Limited","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
