Key Features
- Genuine OEM Dimensional Conformity — Manufactured to exact thickness and gauge specifications (5 x 1.5, 14GA), ensuring the shim seats correctly within the wear pad assembly without modification.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to install in the same position as the original, maintaining proper wear pad alignment and contact across the boom structure.
- Broad Boom Lift Compatibility — Fits a wide range of Genie S series telescopic and Z series articulating boom lifts, including the S-80, S-85, S-100HD, S-120HD, Z-45/25J, Z-60/34, and Z-80/60.
- Controls Structural Play — Wear pad shims fine-tune the clearance between the boom sections; correct shimming prevents excessive movement that can accelerate wear on boom components.
- Genuine Genie OEM Part — Supplied as an authentic Genie replacement, backed by the quality assurance of an OEM component sourced through an authorized distributor.
A wear pad shim is a thin, precision-gauge spacer fitted within the wear pad stack of a telescoping or articulating boom structure. It sets the correct clearance between boom sections, ensuring smooth extension and retraction while controlling lateral and vertical play. When shims wear down or are missing, boom sections develop excessive looseness, which accelerates wear on surrounding components and can affect the stability and smooth operation of the boom. Replacing a worn or out-of-tolerance shim with the correct gauge restores proper fit and keeps the boom assembly operating as intended.
