Key Features
- Genuine OEM Dimensional Conformity — Manufactured to OEM specifications at .375 x 2.25, matching the original rod end in thread pitch, shank diameter, and overall length for dependable installation.
- Direct-Swap Replacement — Engineered to connect exactly as the original, with no additional hardware or modification needed to complete the swap.
- Broad Boom Lift Compatibility — Fits Genie S-80X, S-80, and S-85 telescopic boom lifts and Z-45/25J DC and Z-45/25J Bi-Energy articulating boom lifts, covering a wide range of Genie boom equipment.
- Articulation and Extension Integrity — A sound rod end maintains smooth, controlled movement at pivot and linkage points. A worn or loose rod end introduces play into the connection, leading to imprecise movement and accelerated wear on adjacent components.
- Operational Safety on Aerial Equipment — Rod ends are load-bearing linkage components on boom lifts. Maintaining them in good condition is essential to the controlled, predictable operation that aerial work at height demands.
A rod end is a pivoting connector used at the termination of a rod or actuator, allowing controlled articulation between two joined components. It consists of a threaded shank and a spherical bearing housed in an eye, which permits angular movement while transmitting load through the connection point. On boom lifts, rod ends are found at linkage and cylinder attachment points where precise, low-friction pivoting is critical to smooth machine movement. When a rod end wears, the bearing develops play, which can cause sloppy or uneven motion at the affected joint and put additional stress on surrounding components — making timely replacement with the correct OEM part the straightforward fix.
