Cross-reference part number 981460GT against your unit's parts manual to confirm it is the correct item before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Material Grade — Manufactured to Genie's original thread and dimensional specifications, so the fastener seats correctly and holds torque without the risk of strip-out or mismatch.
- Exact Thread Specification — 3/8-16NC thread form and 1-1/4H shank length match the original fastener, allowing direct installation without reworking the receiving thread or mating component.
- Broad AL-Series Fitment — Compatible with the AL5 with Vertical Mast, AL5, AL4L, and AL5L portable light towers, covering multiple variants within the Genie AL light-tower family.
- Fastener Integrity Matters — A worn, corroded, or incorrect fastener can allow panels, covers, or structural brackets to work loose during transport and operation. Replacing with the correct OEM screw restores the clamping load the assembly requires.
A hex head cap screw is a threaded fastener used to clamp two or more components together at a defined torque. The hex head allows a wrench or socket to apply consistent, measurable tightening force, which is critical wherever a connection must stay secure under vibration or repeated use. When a screw stretches, strips, or corrodes, it can no longer hold that clamping load — leading to loose assemblies, movement between mating parts, and potential damage to the components it was holding. Replacing a failed or missing fastener with the correct OEM screw restores the joint to its original specification.
