Key Features
- Genuine OEM Gauge Conformity — Manufactured to the specified 16-gauge thickness, delivering the precise dimensional profile required for correct wear pad seating on Genie telescopic boom lift boom sections.
- Direct OEM Replacement — Supplied by Genie as the factory replacement shim, this part installs in place of the original with no modification needed to mounting surfaces or adjacent components.
- Broad S-Series and SX-Series Coverage — Fits Genie S-60, S-80, S-85, and SX-125 XC telescopic boom lifts, covering multiple models in the straight-boom lift range.
- Maintains Boom Section Alignment — A correctly fitted shim keeps wear pads properly spaced against the boom section, preventing excessive play or contact that accelerates structural wear.
- Protects Adjacent Components — By maintaining the correct clearance between boom sections, this shim helps limit uneven loading on the wear pads, extending the service life of surrounding components.
A wear pad shim is a thin, precisely gauged spacer installed behind or beneath a wear pad on a telescopic boom's sliding sections. Its role is to set the correct clearance between the inner and outer boom sections as they extend and retract, keeping contact even and controlled. When a shim is worn, damaged, or missing, the wear pads can shift out of position, allowing the boom sections to develop unwanted movement or causing accelerated wear to the pad surfaces and the boom structure itself. Replacing a worn shim with the correct OEM part restores the specified fit and helps the boom slide smoothly through its full range of travel.
