The Genie 1252542GT Snap Ring is a genuine OEM retaining component built for Genie GTH series telehandlers, including the GTH-1048, GTH-1056, GTH-1256, and GTH-1544. As a direct OEM part, this snap ring is manufactured to the exact dimensional and material specifications Genie requires, ensuring a correct, secure fit in your machine without modification. Cross-reference part number 1252542GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the right item for your specific unit and configuration.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Dimensional Conformity — Manufactured to Genie's exact diameter and thickness tolerances, so the ring seats correctly in its groove without play or improper retention.
- Direct OEM Replacement — Replaces the original snap ring on covered GTH telehandler models; installs directly into the existing groove with no rework required.
- Broad GTH Telehandler Coverage — Fits the GTH-1048, GTH-1056, GTH-1256, and GTH-1544, covering a wide range of Genie's heavy-capacity telehandler lineup.
- Secure Component Retention — A properly seated snap ring keeps the components it retains locked in position. A worn, sprung, or missing ring allows unwanted axial movement that can lead to accelerated wear or component failure.
- Genuine Genie OEM Part — Sourced directly through the Genie OEM supply chain, giving you confidence in part authenticity and traceability for your machine's service records.
A snap ring is a thin, sprung-metal retaining ring that seats into a machined groove on a shaft or inside a bore to prevent components from shifting axially. Once installed, it holds adjacent parts — such as bearings, pins, or gears — firmly in place during operation. When a snap ring becomes worn, corroded, or loses its spring tension, it can slip from its groove, allowing the retained component to move out of position and causing rapid wear or mechanical failure elsewhere in the assembly. Replacing a failed snap ring promptly with the correct OEM part restores proper retention and protects the surrounding components it secures.
