The Genie 52927GT is a genuine OEM Hex Head Cap Screw, 5/16-18 x 2.5", GR 5, built for Genie Z-45/25 series articulating boom lifts. As a factory-sourced fastener, this screw matches the exact thread pitch, length, and grade specification called out in the Genie parts manual, ensuring a correct and secure installation every time. It is a direct replacement for the original hardware on the Z-45/25, Z-45/25J DC, and Z-45/25J Bi-Energy.
Key Features
- GR 5 Fastener Strength — Manufactured to Grade 5 specification, delivering the tensile and shear strength required for the structural and mechanical connections on Genie articulating booms.
- Exact Thread and Length Match — Cut to 5/16-18 UNC thread and 2.5" length, this screw installs directly into the factory threaded bore without modification or chasing.
- Confirmed OEM Fitment — Designed for the Z-45/25, Z-45/25J DC, and Z-45/25J Bi-Energy articulating boom lifts; cross-reference part number 52927GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm the correct application.
- Consistent Clamping Integrity — A fastener of the correct grade and dimension maintains the specified clamping load at the joint, preventing loosening or fatigue that can develop when an incorrect substitute is used.
- Genuine Genie Part — Sourced directly from Genie, this screw meets the same dimensional and material standards as the hardware originally installed at the factory.
A hex head cap screw is a threaded fastener used to clamp, secure, or locate two or more components at a bolted joint. The grade rating defines the bolt's strength class — a GR 5 screw is heat-treated to a defined minimum tensile strength, making it suitable for load-bearing connections on aerial work platforms. Using the correct grade, thread size, and length matters because an undersized or lower-grade substitute can stretch, strip, or fail under the dynamic loads and vibration a boom lift experiences in normal operation. When a screw at a critical joint is missing, stripped, or replaced with the wrong hardware, the connection it holds can work loose, leading to misalignment or component damage that takes the machine out of service.
