The Genie 1698GT is a genuine OEM Black Trimlock, 3/8 designed for a range of Genie scissor lifts, trailer-mounted articulating booms, and industrial work platform models. As a direct OEM replacement, this trimlock is manufactured to the same specifications as the original component, ensuring a proper fit and correct function on the machines it was engineered for. Compatible models include Genie GS rough-terrain scissor lifts such as the GS-2668 RT, GS-3268 RT, GS-3390, GS-4390, GS-5390, and GS-3384, as well as the TZ-34/20 trailer-mounted articulating boom and the IWP industrial work platform. Cross-reference part number 1698GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm fitment before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Material and Profile — Manufactured to original Genie specifications, this trimlock matches the exact durometer, profile, and black finish of the factory-installed component — critical for a secure, gap-free seal along panel edges.
- Direct Channel-Slot Installation — The 3/8 trimlock slides into the same channel groove as the original, requiring no cutting, shimming, or modification to the panel or frame mounting point.
- Broad GS Scissor Lift Coverage — Fits multiple Genie GS rough-terrain scissor lift models, including the GS-2668 RT, GS-3268 RT, GS-3390, GS-4390, GS-5390, and GS-3384, plus the TZ-34/20 and IWP.
- Edge and Panel Protection — Properly seated trimlock prevents metal-on-metal contact, vibration wear, and debris intrusion along panel edges — preserving the structural panels it borders over the machine's service life.
- Operational Integrity on Elevated Equipment — On aerial lifts and work platforms, securely retained panels and guards are a functional safety matter. A damaged or missing trimlock can allow panels to shift or expose edges, making timely replacement important for maintaining proper machine condition.
Trimlock is a flexible edge-trim molding that clamps onto the raw or finished edge of a metal panel, guard, or structural member. It serves two primary purposes: protecting the edge itself from chipping and corrosion, and preventing contact between the sharp panel edge and adjacent components, wiring, or personnel. On Genie scissor lifts and boom machines, trimlock is commonly used along platform floor panels, control box enclosures, and access covers. When trimlock becomes cracked, brittle, or dislodged — whether from UV exposure, impact, or normal wear — the exposed edge can abrade nearby wiring or hydraulic lines and create a contact hazard. Replacing a worn trimlock promptly with the correct OEM part keeps panel edges properly dressed and the surrounding components protected.
