The Genie 6-5206-18GT is a genuine OEM Hex Head Cap Screw, 3/8-16x2.25, GR8 built for Genie GTH telehandlers and Z-series articulating boom lifts. As a Grade 8 fastener, this screw meets the tensile and torque specifications Genie requires at the points where it is used — making it the correct choice when replacing hardware on these machines. It fits the GTH-636, GTH-1048, and GTH-1056 telehandlers as well as the Z-135/70 and ZX-135/70 articulating booms, so confirm part number 6-5206-18GT against your machine's parts manual before ordering.
Key Features
- Grade 8 Tensile Strength — Manufactured to GR8 specification, this screw delivers the high-strength clamping force required at critical fastening points on heavy-duty aerial equipment and telehandlers.
- Exact OEM Thread and Dimensional Spec — Cut to a 3/8-16 thread pitch and 2.25-inch length, this screw installs directly in place of the original without modification to threads, holes, or mating hardware.
- Broad Genie Family Coverage — A single part number covers fitment across Genie GTH telehandlers (GTH-636, GTH-1048, GTH-1056) and the Z-135/70 and ZX-135/70 articulating boom lifts.
- Genuine OEM Sourcing — Supplied directly in the Genie OEM parts program, this fastener is built to the same material and dimensional standards as the hardware that left the factory with your machine.
- Structural Integrity at Every Joint — A fastener that is under-spec, cross-threaded, or incorrectly sized can allow joint movement or loosening over time. Using the correct Grade 8 OEM screw maintains the clamping load the joint was designed for.
A hex head cap screw is a fully threaded or partially threaded fastener used to clamp, secure, or align structural and mechanical components. On heavy equipment like telehandlers and large boom lifts, fasteners at structural joints, pin retention points, and cover assemblies are often specified to a particular grade because the clamping load directly affects how safely and reliably those joints perform under load and vibration. A fastener that has been stripped, corroded, or replaced with an incorrect grade can allow movement where none should exist. Replacing worn or damaged hardware with the correct Genie OEM screw restores the joint to its original specification and keeps the assembly performing as designed.
