The Genie 217232GT is a genuine OEM Socket Head Cap Screw, 3/8-24 x.75, BO built for Genie SX-180 super-boom telescopic lifts and ZX-135/70 articulating boom lifts. As a direct OEM replacement, this screw is manufactured to Genie's exact specifications, ensuring a correct and secure fit in the application it was designed for. Cross-reference part number 217232GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the right fastener for your unit before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Fastener Grade — Manufactured to Genie's dimensional and material specifications for the 3/8-24 x .75 thread form, delivering the correct clamp load and seating depth for the intended joint.
- Exact-Thread Replacement — The 3/8-24 fine-thread profile and socket head cap configuration match the original hardware precisely, threading directly into the existing tapped hole without rework.
- Fits SX and ZX Boom Lifts — Confirmed fitment for the Genie SX-180 telescopic boom and ZX-135/70 articulating boom, two of the largest machines in the Genie range.
- Structural Integrity at the Fastened Joint — A correctly torqued socket head cap screw maintains the clamping force that keeps assembled components aligned and secure during machine operation; a loose or damaged screw can allow unwanted movement or component separation.
- Socket Drive for Tight-Access Installation — The internal hex socket drive allows torque to be applied in confined spaces where a standard hex-head wrench may not clear surrounding structure.
A socket head cap screw is a high-strength threaded fastener with a cylindrical head and an internal hexagonal socket that accepts an Allen key or hex-bit driver. The fine 3/8-24 thread pitch provides greater thread engagement per unit of length compared to a coarse-thread equivalent, making it well suited to joints where precise clamping force and resistance to loosening under vibration are important. When a screw of this type fails — through corrosion, fatigue, or over-torque stripping — it must be replaced with a fastener of identical thread specification and grade to restore the joint to its original design condition.
