The Genie 13598GT is a genuine OEM Drive Shaft Key, 2" built for the Genie Z-30/20HD articulating boom lift. Sourced directly from Genie, this key is manufactured to the exact dimensional tolerances required for correct installation on the drive shaft. As a genuine OEM part, it matches the original component specification — no guesswork on sizing or fit when you reference part number 13598GT against your machine's parts manual.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Dimensional Accuracy — Manufactured to the exact 2" specification of the original part, ensuring the key seats correctly in the shaft keyway without slop or excessive clearance.
- Direct OEM Replacement — Drops into the drive shaft assembly of the Z-30/20HD exactly as the original, with no machining or modification needed.
- Purpose-Built for the Z-30/20HD — Confirmed fitment for the Genie Z-30/20HD articulating boom lift; cross-reference part number 13598GT with your parts manual before ordering.
- Restores Drive Shaft Integrity — A worn or sheared key allows the shaft and mating component to slip against each other, causing loss of drive engagement. Replacing it promptly restores positive torque transfer.
- Keeps the Machine in Service — A failed drive shaft key can sideline a machine quickly; having the correct OEM part on hand gets the unit back to work without extended delays waiting on a non-standard substitute.
A drive shaft key is a small, precisely sized component that fits into a keyway machined into both the shaft and its mating hub or gear, locking them together so they rotate as one unit. When the key is correctly seated, it transmits torque between the two components without slippage. If the key shears, deforms, or works loose — typically due to shock loads or a loose fit — the shaft and hub can spin independently, causing loss of drive function and potential damage to surrounding components. Replacing a damaged key with the correct OEM part restores the mechanical connection and prevents further wear to the keyway itself.
