The Genie 6-5216-56GT is a genuine OEM Hex Head Cap Screw, 1-8X7, GR8, built for Genie GTH telehandlers including the GTH-844, GTH-1048, and GTH-1056. As a direct OEM replacement, this screw is manufactured to the same dimensional and grade specifications as the original hardware used on these machines. Grade 8 construction means it is rated for the high-clamping-load applications found throughout Genie GTH telehandlers, making it the right choice when structural integrity cannot be compromised.
Key Features
- Grade 8 Tensile Strength — GR8 rating delivers the high clamping force and tensile strength required for demanding fastener locations on GTH telehandlers.
- Exact OEM Dimensions — 1-8X7 threading and length match the original specification, ensuring a proper seat and full thread engagement without adjustment.
- Genuine Genie OEM Part — sourced directly through the Genie OEM supply chain, so fit and material grade are confirmed against the original build standard.
- Confirmed Telehandler Fitment — verified for the GTH-844, GTH-1048, and GTH-1056, covering a broad range of Genie GTH telehandler configurations.
- Structural Confidence — using the correct grade fastener ensures the joint holds torque spec and resists loosening under the vibration and load cycles typical of telehandler work.
A hex head cap screw is a structural fastener that holds machine components together under defined clamping force. The grade rating — GR8 in this case — indicates the screw's tensile and proof-load strength, which determines how much clamping force can be safely applied. Using an incorrect grade or an undersized replacement risks joint failure under load, which can allow components to shift or separate during operation. Replacing a worn or damaged screw with the correct OEM part, cross-referenced as part number 6-5216-56GT in your GTH machine's parts manual, is the straightforward way to restore the joint to its intended specification.
