The Genie 235686GT is a genuine OEM Plastic Shim, 3/16X2X3-3/16 built for AL5000 and AL5 light towers. As a direct OEM replacement, this shim matches the original dimensional profile exactly, ensuring it seats correctly without any adjustment during installation. Cross-reference part number 235686GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm this is the correct item for your unit before ordering.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Plastic Construction — Manufactured to Genie's dimensional specifications, this plastic shim delivers the material grade and thickness consistency needed for a correct, repeatable fit.
- Exact Dimensional Match — The 3/16X2X3-3/16 profile matches the original part, dropping in at the intended location without trimming, grinding, or secondary fitment work.
- Confirmed Fitment — Designed for AL5000 and AL5 Genie light towers, keeping your equipment running with the correct OEM component.
- Spacing and Alignment Integrity — A shim in good condition maintains proper component spacing and alignment; a missing, worn, or incorrect shim can cause unwanted play, uneven load distribution, or premature wear on adjacent parts.
A shim is a thin, precisely sized spacer used to fill gaps, align components, or compensate for dimensional variation between mating parts. On Genie light towers, maintaining correct spacing between components prevents unwanted movement and protects surrounding hardware from accelerated wear. When a shim is lost, damaged, or replaced with an incorrectly sized piece, alignment is compromised and adjacent components may shift under load or vibration — making the correct OEM replacement the reliable choice for restoring the assembly to its intended condition.
