ClimbingMaintenancePro grade

This Climb Right height adjustment sleeve comes with its screws and replaces the height-adjusting section on Climb Right steel climbers. Swap it when holes wear, hardware strips or the shank won't hold its setting.

Why the sleeve matters

The sleeve sets how high the shank rides on your leg. Too high and it digs in behind the knee every time you bend; too low and the spur feels loose and less stable. When holes elongate or screws strip, you lose that adjustment and the spur can shift.

Check your climber model before ordering. More Climb Right and other parts are in replacement gaffs and parts.

When you order parts, note your climber brand, model and roughly when you bought it. Makers revise designs over the years, and that detail is the fastest way to be sure the replacement matches what is on your spurs.

Installing it

Remove the old sleeve, fit the new one with the supplied screws and tighten firmly. Set height with your work boot on so the top of the shank sits a little below the knee, then confirm nothing moves under load.

After any repair, inspect the whole spur before climbing. Follow the manufacturer's instructions and ANSI Z133, and have a qualified person check the work if you are unsure.

Spur parts are cheap next to a fall or a lost day. Keep a small kit in the climbing bag with a file, a gauge, spare screws and a strap, so a worn part gets swapped at the truck instead of nursed through the rest of the job.
