Key Features
- Genuine OEM Fastener Grade — Manufactured to Genie's original material and dimensional spec, so thread engagement and clamping force match what the machine was designed around.
- Exact Thread and Size Match — The 3/8-16 thread and 7/8-inch length are precise identifiers; this screw installs directly in place of the original without modification.
- Correct Hex Drive — Hex head cap profile accepts standard tooling used in the field, making installation and removal straightforward during service.
- Fits Multiple AL-Series Light Towers — Compatible with AL4000, AL5000, AL4, and AL5 Genie portable light towers, covering a broad range of jobsite lighting equipment.
- Structural Integrity — A fastener at the correct specification holds assemblies securely. An incorrect or worn fastener can allow components to loosen under vibration, leading to premature wear or failure of the joint it secures.
A hex head cap screw is a threaded fastener used to clamp two or more components together in a bolted joint. The thread size, length, and head style are all load-bearing specifications — using a fastener that differs in any of these dimensions can result in under-clamping, thread damage, or joint loosening over time. On light tower equipment that is regularly towed, deployed, and stowed, fastener integrity directly affects the durability of the assembled structure. Replacing a worn or damaged screw with the correct OEM part restores the joint to its original holding specification.
