The Genie 56295GT Gas Strut is a genuine OEM component built for Z-34/22 N, Z-34/22 DC, Z-34/22 Bi-Energy, Z-34/22 IC, and Z-34 IC articulating boom lifts. As a direct OEM replacement, this strut is manufactured to the same specification as the original part, ensuring it installs and performs exactly as intended. Cross-reference part number 56295GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm this is the correct strut for your unit before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Built to Genie's original specification, with the correct gas charge and dimensional tolerances for this strut position on the listed machines.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to match the original mounting points and connection hardware, so the strut seats correctly without modification.
- Broad Z-34 Family Fitment — Fits multiple variants of the Z-34 articulating boom lift, including the Z-34/22 N, Z-34/22 DC, Z-34/22 Bi-Energy, Z-34/22 IC, and Z-34 IC.
- Consistent Counterbalance Force — A fully charged gas strut holds components in position and assists controlled movement; a degraded or leaking strut loses holding force and can cause uncontrolled movement of the panel or cover it supports.
- Operational Safety Assurance — On aerial work platforms, components that rely on gas strut support must stay firmly held during operation and service. Replacing a failed strut with the correct OEM part restores the intended level of retention and protection.
A gas strut uses compressed gas sealed inside a cylinder to exert a controlled, consistent force along its axis. On Genie Z-34 articulating boom lifts, this strut supports and counterbalances a cover, panel, or access door — holding it open at a set position during inspection or service and closing smoothly when released. When the gas charge depletes or the seals fail, the strut loses its holding force, causing the supported component to drop or resist movement. Replacing a worn strut with the correct OEM part restores safe, predictable operation and protects technicians working around the machine.
