The Genie 1283027GT LP Nylock Nut, 5/16-18, 2, ZAG is a genuine OEM fastener built for Genie GS scissor lifts, S series telescopic boom lifts, and Z series articulating boom lifts. As a direct OEM replacement, this nut is manufactured to the exact dimensional and material standards Genie specifies for these machines. Compatible models include the GS-1930, GS-2646, GS-3246, GS-4046, S-80 XC, S-85 XC, S-80 HF, S-85 HF, Z-40/23N, Z-45/25J Bi-Energy, Z-45/25J DC, Z-45/25J IC Power, and additional models across the GS and Z families. Always cross-reference part number 1283027GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the correct fastener for your specific unit.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Material Grade — Manufactured to Genie's exact specifications for thread class, zinc alloy geometry (ZAG finish), and nylon insert retention, ensuring correct clamping load at the 5/16-18 thread specification.
- Exact-Thread Replacement — The 5/16-18 thread pitch and LP (low-profile) flange profile match the original fastener dimensions, so this nut seats and torques correctly without rework.
- Broad Genie Fleet Coverage — Fits GS series scissor lifts, S series telescopic boom lifts, and Z series articulating boom lifts, making this nut a practical stock item for mixed Genie fleets.
- Locking Integrity — The nylon insert grips the mating bolt thread under vibration and dynamic load, resisting loosening in the demanding operating cycles typical of aerial work platforms.
- Confident Sourcing — Supplied as a genuine Genie OEM part through DHS Equipment, backed by the correct part number for accurate ordering and inventory control.
A low-profile Nylock nut combines a standard hex nut body with an integrated nylon locking insert that deforms around the mating bolt thread when driven to torque. This mechanical interference prevents the nut from backing off under vibration, cyclic loading, or thermal cycling — conditions that are routine on aerial work platforms during daily operation. A missing, stripped, or incorrectly specified nut at a structural or mechanical joint can allow components to shift or work loose over time, compromising the integrity of that connection. Replacing a worn or damaged fastener with the correct OEM specification nut restores the joint to its designed clamping condition.
