The Genie 995190GT Nylock Nut, 1/2-20 is a genuine OEM fastener built for Genie AL-series portable light towers, including the AL4000, AL5000, AL4, AL5, AL4L, and AL5L. As a factory-sourced component, it meets the exact dimensional and thread specifications called out in Genie's parts documentation. Cross-reference part number 995190GT against your machine's parts manual before ordering to confirm it is the correct item for your unit.
Key Features
- Correct Thread Specification — 1/2-20 fine-thread profile matches the original fastener exactly, ensuring full thread engagement and proper torque retention without risk of cross-threading or loosening under vibration.
- Nylon-Insert Locking — the integrated nylon collar resists loosening from vibration and movement, maintaining clamp load at the joint without additional locking hardware.
- Genuine OEM Construction — sourced directly from Genie, this nut is manufactured to the same material grade and dimensional tolerances as the hardware installed at the factory.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — this fastener installs in place of the original without modification, fitting the same bolt pattern and thread engagement as the part it replaces.
- Broad AL-Series Compatibility — confirmed fitment across the AL4000, AL5000, AL4, AL5, AL4L, and AL5L Genie portable light tower lineup.
A Nylock nut is a standard hex nut with a nylon insert bonded into the top of the nut. When threaded onto a bolt, the nylon collar deforms slightly around the thread, creating friction that resists backoff caused by vibration or cyclic loading. This makes it well suited to equipment that moves, tows, or operates in high-vibration environments — exactly the conditions portable light towers face on active job sites. A worn, stripped, or missing Nylock nut can allow a joint to work loose over time, leading to misalignment, component movement, or mechanical failure at the fastened connection. Replacing a damaged or lost fastener with the correct OEM part restores the holding integrity the joint was designed to deliver.
