The Genie 17018GT Socket Head Cap Screw, 1/2-13 x 1 is a genuine OEM fastener built for Genie GS scissor lifts and PLC/PLI personnel lifts. Sourced directly through Genie's OEM supply chain, this screw is dimensionally matched to the factory specification — 1/2-13 thread pitch, 1-inch grip length — ensuring it seats correctly in every application it was designed for. Confirm part number 17018GT against your machine's parts manual to verify it is the correct fastener for your unit before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Fastener Grade — Manufactured to Genie's material and dimensional standards, delivering the correct thread form, head geometry, and tensile strength for this application.
- Exact-Thread Compatibility — 1/2-13 UNC thread and 1-inch length match the original hardware specification, so the screw drives in and torques down without modification.
- Broad GS Series Coverage — Fits Genie GS-3384, GS-3390, GS-4390, and GS-5390 scissor lifts, as well as PLC and PLI personnel lifts, making it a practical stocking item across multiple machine types.
- Socket Head Drive for Tight Access — The socket head cap (SHS) profile allows torquing with a hex key in confined structural locations where a standard hex-head wrench cannot reach.
- Structural Integrity Where It Counts — A fastener that has stretched, stripped, or corroded compromises the structural joints it secures. Replacing worn hardware with the correct OEM screw restores the connection to its original clamping specification.
A socket head cap screw is a high-strength fastener driven by an internal hex socket rather than an external hex head, allowing it to be installed in recessed or space-constrained locations. On scissor lifts and personnel lifts, fasteners like this one secure structural and mechanical joints that must maintain their clamping load through repeated cycles of extension, retraction, and load bearing. A fastener that is the wrong thread pitch, too short, or degraded by wear or corrosion will not hold the joint at the correct torque, which can allow movement or loosening over time. Replacing it with the correct OEM part — cross-referenced as 17018GT against your parts manual — keeps the joint performing as the machine was designed to operate.
