The Genie 218457GT is a genuine OEM Hex Flange Screw, M5X12, DIN6921, 10.9, Z built for a wide range of Genie aerial lifts and telehandlers, including S and SX telescopic booms, Z and ZX articulating booms, and GTH telehandlers. As a direct OEM replacement, this screw is manufactured to the same DIN6921 standard and 10.9 property class as the original hardware installed at the factory. Cross-reference part number 218457GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the correct fastener for your application before ordering.
Key Features
- Integrated Flange Design — The hex flange head distributes clamping load over a wider bearing surface, reducing the risk of fastener loosening under vibration without a separate washer.
- Exact OEM Replacement — Sourced directly from Genie as a genuine OEM part, this screw matches the original M5X12 thread pitch, head geometry, and finish spec character for character.
- Broad Genie Fitment — Fits Genie S and SX telescopic booms, Z and ZX articulating booms, and GTH series telehandlers, covering a substantial portion of the Genie product line.
- Fastener Integrity Supports Structural Assembly — A fastener that is the wrong grade, size, or thread pitch can back out or fail under load; replacing it with the correct OEM screw keeps the assembly torqued to spec.
A hex flange screw combines the driving convenience of a hex head with a built-in flanged washer face that spreads the clamping force across a broader surface area. This design helps the fastener resist loosening caused by equipment vibration — a common stress on aerial lifts and telehandlers during travel and operation. When a screw of this type wears, strips, or is replaced with an incorrect grade or thread, the joint it secures may lose its specified clamping load, which can affect the integrity of the assembly. Installing the correct OEM part, confirmed by cross-referencing part number 218457GT against the machine's parts manual, restores the joint to its original specification.
