The Genie 53909GT is a genuine OEM Hex Head Cap Screw, 5/8-11 x 4.0 GR8, built for Genie S series telescopic boom lifts, Z series articulating boom lifts, GTH series telehandlers, and TZ trailer-mounted booms. Sourced directly from Genie, this fastener meets the dimensional and grade specifications called out in the original parts manual. Cross-reference part number 53909GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the correct item for your application before ordering.
Key Features
- Grade 8 Strength Rating — The GR8 designation confirms this screw meets the high-tensile requirements for heavy-duty structural and mechanical fastening on Genie equipment.
- Exact Thread and Length Spec — 5/8-11 thread pitch and 4.0-inch length match the OEM specification exactly, so the screw engages correctly without shimming, re-tapping, or adaptation.
- Broad Genie Fitment — Compatible across S series telescopic booms (S-40, S-45, S-60, S-65, S-80, S-85), Z series articulating booms (Z-60/34, Z-80/60), GTH telehandlers (GTH-636, GTH-644, GTH-842, GTH-844, GTH-1048, GTH-1056), and TZ trailer booms (TZ-50, TZ-50/30).
- Genuine OEM Part — Supplied by Genie as an original equipment fastener, ensuring dimensional conformity and material grade consistency with the hardware used in original assembly.
- Structural Integrity — A fastener that has stretched, corroded, or been over-torqued can no longer hold a joint to spec. Replacing it with the correct grade and size restores the clamping force the connection was designed to carry.
A Hex Head Cap Screw is a structural fastener used to secure components together under significant load. The grade rating determines how much clamping force and tensile stress the fastener can handle before yielding — Grade 8 is among the highest ratings for inch-series fasteners and is specified wherever a joint must withstand heavy mechanical stress. The 5/8-11 thread designation describes the screw's diameter and thread pitch, while the 4.0-inch length determines how deep the fastener engages the mating component. When a screw of this type is damaged, corroded, or incorrectly replaced with a lower-grade fastener, the joint it secures can work loose or fail under load — making accurate replacement with the correct OEM part essential.
