The Genie 81738-2200GT is a genuine OEM Aluminized Steel Round Tube, 3 x 18GA, built specifically for the Z-135/70 articulating boom lift. As a direct OEM replacement, this tube matches the original design specifications to ensure a correct, trouble-free installation on your machine. Sourced through authorized Genie supply channels, this component gives you the confidence that comes from using the exact part the manufacturer intended. Cross-reference part number 81738-2200GT against your Z-135/70 parts manual to confirm this is the correct tube for your application before ordering.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Aluminized Steel Construction — The aluminized coating bonds a heat- and corrosion-resistant aluminum-silicon layer directly to the steel substrate, providing the same protection profile as the original tube.
- Exact Dimensional Match — Produced to the same 3-inch diameter and 18-gauge wall thickness as the factory component, so it drops into place without rework or shimming.
- Purpose-Built for the Z-135/70 — Designed exclusively for the Z-135/70 articulating boom lift, eliminating compatibility guesswork on one of Genie's largest-platform articulating machines.
- Structural Integrity Where It Counts — A correctly functioning tube maintains the rigidity and load path of the boom assembly; a cracked, corroded, or deformed tube compromises structural performance across the full working range of the machine.
- Safety-Critical Structural Component — On an articulating boom operating at extreme working heights, structural tube integrity is directly tied to platform stability and operator safety — using an OEM replacement keeps the machine performing as designed and certified.
Structural tubes in a boom lift assembly serve as primary load-bearing members within the boom's framework, carrying the combined stresses of extension, articulation, and platform loading through every position of the work cycle. On a large articulating boom like the Z-135/70, these tubes must maintain their shape and surface integrity under both dynamic operating loads and outdoor environmental exposure. When a tube becomes corroded through, cracked, or structurally compromised, the affected section of the boom can no longer safely transfer load, which can lead to instability or structural failure — making timely replacement with the correct OEM component essential to keeping the machine fit for service.
