The Genie T114381GT is a genuine OEM Perkins Thermostat & Housing Assembly designed for the GTH-1048 and GTH-1056 telehandlers. Sourced directly from Genie, this assembly ensures the engine cooling system operates exactly as engineered, with correct coolant flow characteristics and a housing that seals to OEM tolerances. Genuine OEM status means this component is an exact match for the original part installed at the factory, giving you confidence that fitment on your GTH-1048 or GTH-1056 will be straightforward and correct. Cross-reference part number T114381GT against your parts manual before ordering to confirm applicability to your specific unit.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Thermostat Calibration — Opens and closes at the precise coolant temperature rating specified for the Perkins engine, protecting against both overheating and under-temperature running.
- Complete Assembly Replacement — Includes both the thermostat and the housing, so worn or cracked housings are replaced at the same time, eliminating a common secondary leak point.
- Direct-Fit for GTH-Series Telehandlers — Engineered specifically for the GTH-1048 and GTH-1056, matching all bolt patterns, port sizes, and gasket surfaces without modification.
- Engine Protection Under Load — Telehandlers cycle between idle and heavy-duty lifting continuously; a correctly functioning thermostat keeps coolant temperature stable across that entire duty cycle.
- Operational Safety Relevance — Uncontrolled engine temperatures on a loaded telehandler can trigger thermal shutdowns at critical moments; restoring proper thermostat function keeps the machine operating safely under full-load conditions.
A thermostat regulates engine coolant temperature by blocking or opening flow to the radiator depending on how hot the coolant has become. When the engine is cold, the thermostat stays closed so the engine reaches operating temperature quickly; once the target temperature is reached, it opens to allow hot coolant to circulate through the radiator and cool down. The housing seals the thermostat into the coolant circuit and provides the connection point between the engine block and the upper radiator hose. When the thermostat sticks open, the engine runs too cold and loses efficiency; when it sticks closed, coolant cannot reach the radiator and the engine overheats rapidly — on a working telehandler, either condition accelerates engine wear and can lead to unplanned shutdowns.
