The Genie 217235GT is a genuine OEM Socket Head Screw, 3/4X1.5X5/8-11, ZAG built for the Z-135/70 and ZX-135/70 articulating boom lifts. Sourced directly from Genie, this fastener matches the exact thread specification, head geometry, and zinc-alloy galvanized finish called out in the original machine design. Cross-reference part number 217235GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the correct item for your unit before ordering.
Key Features
- OEM Thread and Dimensional Conformity — Manufactured to the exact 3/4X1.5X5/8-11 specification, ensuring the correct thread engagement and clamp load every time.
- Zinc-Alloy Galvanized (ZAG) Finish — The ZAG coating provides corrosion resistance suited to the demanding outdoor environments these large articulating booms operate in.
- Direct OEM Replacement — Drops in as a like-for-like swap with no rework, using the same socket drive size and seating depth as the original fastener.
- Confirmed Fitment — Designed specifically for the Z-135/70 and ZX-135/70 articulating boom lifts, keeping the replacement straightforward for technicians working from the Genie parts manual.
- Structural Integrity of Fastened Joints — A correctly specified screw maintains the designed clamping force at every joint it secures; a stripped, corroded, or incorrect fastener can allow movement or loosening in critical structural connections.
A socket head cap screw is a high-strength fastener driven by an internal hex (Allen) key, commonly used where a low-profile head is required or where clearance prevents a standard hex head wrench from fitting. On large articulating boom lifts such as the Z-135/70 and ZX-135/70, fasteners like this one secure structural, mechanical, and accessory components throughout the machine. Using the correct OEM screw — with the right thread pitch, grip length, and surface finish — ensures joints are held to the designed torque specification and that the corrosion resistance of the original assembly is preserved. A screw that is undersized, over-torqued, or made to a lower grade can fatigue, strip, or corrode prematurely, leading to loose connections that require more extensive repairs to correct.
