The Genie 7-345-18GT is a genuine OEM Preload Shim, 3.00mm designed for the Genie GTH-636 telehandler. As a factory-sourced component, this shim is manufactured to the exact thickness specification required for proper preload adjustment on your machine. Sourced directly from Genie, it delivers the dimensional precision that aftermarket alternatives may not match. Cross-reference part number 7-345-18GT against your GTH-636 parts manual to confirm it is the correct shim for your application before ordering.
Key Features
- Exact Thickness Specification — Manufactured to a precise 3.00mm thickness, ensuring the correct preload setting is achieved during assembly or service.
- Genuine OEM Quality — Produced to Genie's material and dimensional standards, providing the conformity required for a critical adjustment component.
- Direct Replacement Fit — Engineered specifically for the GTH-636 telehandler, this shim installs in place of the original without additional fitting or modification.
- Maintains Assembly Integrity — Using the correct shim thickness prevents premature wear on mating components caused by improper preload — too little or too much clearance accelerates bearing and component fatigue.
- Verified Genie Part — Part number 7-345-18GT is a genuine Genie component, giving you confidence that the specification matches your machine's service requirements.
A preload shim is a precision-thickness spacer used during assembly to set the correct amount of preload — or controlled bearing load — on rotating or sliding components. By selecting the right shim thickness, a technician ensures that bearings and mating parts run with the correct internal clearance, preventing excessive play or over-tightening that would cause rapid wear. Using an incorrect shim thickness during service can lead to premature component failure, increased maintenance intervals, and compromised performance of the assembly it supports.
