The Genie 123840GT Hex Head Cap Screw is a genuine OEM fastener built for Genie AL and RL light towers and GTH series telehandlers. As a Grade 8, 5/16-18x.75 fastener, this screw meets the strength and dimensional specs Genie requires at the factory, making it the correct choice when an original screw needs replacement. Cross-reference part number 123840GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the right item for your specific unit before ordering.
Key Features
- Grade 8 Strength Rating — Manufactured to Grade 8 specification, delivering the tensile strength and hardness Genie calls out for this fastener position.
- Exact Thread and Length Match — 5/16-18 thread pitch and .75-inch length conform to OEM dimensions, so this screw seats and torques correctly without modification.
- Broad Genie Fitment — Fits AL and RL series light towers, select AL models with vertical mast, and GTH series telehandlers including the GTH-636, GTH-844, GTH-1048, and GTH-1056.
- Genuine OEM Part — Sourced directly through Genie's OEM supply chain, so the material grade, plating, and thread form match what left the factory originally.
- Direct Fastener Replacement — Replaces a worn, stripped, or missing screw without reworking the mounting point, keeping the assembly torqued to spec and structurally sound.
A hex head cap screw is a fully threaded or partially threaded fastener with a six-sided head designed to be driven with a wrench or socket. It clamps two or more components together and holds them at a defined load once torqued to specification. When a screw is stripped, corroded, or missing, the joint it secures can shift or loosen under vibration and working loads, which can compromise the integrity of the assembly. Replacing a damaged fastener with the correct OEM grade and size restores the clamping load the joint was designed around.
