The Genie 6-5205-20GT is a genuine OEM Hex Head Cap Screw, 5/16-18X2.50, GR8 built for Genie GTH series telehandlers. As a direct OEM replacement, this screw is manufactured to the same dimensional and grade specifications as the original hardware installed at the factory, ensuring proper torque characteristics and joint integrity across the machines it serves. Compatible with the GTH-636, GTH-644, GTH-842, GTH-844, GTH-1048, and GTH-1056, this component is the correct part to specify when restoring fastened assemblies on these units. Always cross-reference part number 6-5205-20GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the right item for your application.
Key Features
- Grade 8 Tensile Strength — The GR8 rating means this screw meets a higher tensile and proof-load standard than general-purpose hardware, making it appropriate for the structural and mechanical demands of GTH telehandler assemblies.
- Exact Thread and Length Specification — Cut to 5/16-18 UNC thread pitch and 2.50 inches in length, this screw installs directly into the designated fastener location without modification to fit or thread engagement.
- Genuine OEM Part — Sourced directly through Genie's OEM supply chain, this screw matches the original hardware specification and maintains the dimensional conformity required for correct clamping load and assembly integrity.
- Broad GTH Telehandler Coverage — A single part number covering the GTH-636, GTH-644, GTH-842, GTH-844, GTH-1048, and GTH-1056 simplifies procurement across a mixed GTH fleet.
- Correct Hardware Prevents Assembly Failures — Substituting an incorrect grade or length screw can result in inadequate clamping force or thread stripping. Using the specified OEM fastener maintains the integrity of the assembled joint.
A hex head cap screw is a precision fastener used to clamp and secure mechanical assemblies, structural members, and attached components on the machine. The grade designation — GR8 in this case — indicates the fastener's tensile strength class, which determines how much clamping force it can reliably deliver when torqued to specification. Using a screw of the wrong grade, thread pitch, or length can result in under-clamping, thread damage, or fastener failure, any of which can compromise the assembly it holds together. Replacing a worn or damaged screw with the correct OEM part restores the joint to its designed clamping specification.
