I didn't know that, but it is a BIG label - 6" by 3".

Looking at the pulleys they have a metal rod through them as the axle and then through a small hole in the backing plate. It has literally been pressed at the end to spread and secure it. So it's difficult to replace.

But yes, a pulley in 2 halves could clip around that. Maybe made in 3 parts it would work - 2 halves to clip onto the "axle" and a grooved ring that fits round them like a tyre? But could it stand the pressure from the cable and stay together? Maybe made from metal and glued with epoxy?
