The Genie 823068GT is a genuine OEM Left Channel Wearpad Shim, 16G designed for SX-150 and SX-180 super-boom telescopic lifts. Sourced directly from Genie, this shim is manufactured to the same standards as the original part installed at the factory, ensuring a correct, consistent fit within the boom channel assembly. Cross-reference part number 823068GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the right item for your specific unit before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured by Genie to precise dimensional tolerances, ensuring the shim seats correctly within the channel and delivers consistent wearpad contact across the boom structure.
- Direct-Fit Left-Side Replacement — Designed specifically as the left-side channel wearpad shim; installs in the correct position without modification or adaptation.
- Purpose-Built for SX Series Super-Booms — Confirmed fitment for SX-150 and SX-180 telescopic boom lifts, keeping your parts selection straightforward on these high-reach machines.
- Maintains Boom Channel Integrity — A correctly fitted wearpad shim keeps proper clearance and alignment within the boom channel, reducing uneven wear on the wearpad and supporting smooth boom extension and retraction.
- Operational Safety on Elevated Equipment — On telescopic booms operating at significant heights, maintaining correct channel tolerances is directly tied to structural stability. Replacing a worn or out-of-spec shim with a genuine OEM part supports the lift's designed performance envelope.
A channel wearpad shim is a precision spacer that sits between the boom section and the wearpad within the boom's slide channel. It sets the correct clearance between boom sections so the wearpad contacts the channel surface evenly, allowing the boom to extend and retract smoothly while minimizing metal-to-metal contact. When a shim wears down, becomes deformed, or goes missing, the wearpad can shift position, leading to uneven wear, increased play in the boom sections, and potential damage to the channel itself. Replacing this component with the correct OEM shim restores proper fit and helps protect the surrounding boom structure from accelerated wear.
