The Genie 13001GT is a genuine OEM Nylock Nut, 5/8-18 built for Genie S-series telescopic boom lifts and Z-series articulating boom lifts, including the S-60, Z-30/20HD, and Z-30/20. As a direct OEM replacement, this nut is manufactured to the exact thread specification and retention characteristics required by Genie, ensuring a correct fit with no guesswork. Cross-reference part number 13001GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the right fastener for your application before ordering.
Key Features
- OEM Thread Conformity — Manufactured to the exact 5/8-18 thread specification Genie calls out, ensuring consistent thread engagement and torque retention across all approved applications.
- Nylon Lock Element — The integrated nylon insert resists vibration-induced loosening, maintaining clamp load through the operating cycles and movement common on boom lifts.
- Direct OEM Replacement — Supplied by Genie as a genuine OEM part, this nut installs exactly as the original with no modification or special tooling beyond what the service procedure already requires.
- Broad Boom Lift Fitment — Fits the S-60 telescopic boom and Z-30/20HD and Z-30/20 articulating booms, covering key models in Genie's boom lift lineup.
- Structural Integrity at Every Joint — A correctly torqued, properly locking nut keeps structural and mechanical connections secure; a loose or failed fastener can allow movement at critical joints, leading to accelerated wear or unsafe conditions on an aerial lift.
A Nylock nut is a standard hex nut fitted with a nylon collar at one end. When threaded onto a bolt or stud, the nylon collar deforms slightly around the threads, creating friction that resists the nut backing off under vibration or cyclical loading. On boom lifts, where repeated extension, rotation, and platform movement generate continuous vibration, this locking action is essential for keeping bolted connections tight over time. A Nylock nut that has lost its locking effectiveness — through reuse, heat exposure, or wear — should be replaced immediately, as a fastener that can back off puts mechanical and structural joints at risk.
