The Genie 28118GT is a genuine OEM Socket Head Cap Screw, 1/2-13 x 2.75 built for Genie equipment including the AL5HT light tower and S-60 telescopic boom lift. As a factory-supplied fastener, this screw matches the exact thread pitch, shank length, and head geometry specified for the application — no guesswork on sizing or grade. Sourced directly through DHS Equipment, part number 28118GT carries the confidence of a genuine Genie OEM part.
Key Features
- Exact Thread and Length Specification — 1/2-13 thread pitch and 2.75-inch shank length match the original hardware exactly, seating flush without shimming or modification.
- Socket Head Profile — The socket head cap design accepts a hex key drive, allowing installation in recessed or tight-clearance locations where a standard bolt head will not fit.
- Broad Genie Fitment — Confirmed for Genie AL5HT light towers and S-60 telescopic boom lifts, covering two distinct equipment families in a single OEM part.
- Structural Integrity — A fastener of the correct specification holds joints at their designed clamp load; an undersized or incorrect-grade substitute risks loosening or joint failure under load and vibration.
A socket head cap screw is a high-strength fastener that clamps two or more components together using a cylindrical head driven by an internal hex key. The socket head profile makes it the preferred choice wherever space around the fastener is limited, such as flanged joints, cover plates, and structural brackets on aerial equipment. When a fastener of the wrong thread pitch, length, or grade is substituted, it may strip threads, fail to achieve the correct clamp load, or work loose under the vibration typical of mobile equipment — making like-for-like OEM replacement the correct practice.
