Sourced directly from Genie, this part meets the exact specifications required for proper exhaust routing on Perkins-engined machines in this lineup.

Choosing a genuine OEM component means no guesswork — the tube seats and seals exactly as the original did, restoring the exhaust system to full working condition.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Exhaust Integrity — Manufactured to Genie's exact specifications for Perkins-powered GTH telehandlers, ensuring correct tube diameter, wall thickness, and end geometry for a proper exhaust seal.
- Direct Bolt-On Replacement — This tailpipe tube is engineered to align with existing mounting points and connections on compatible GTH machines, making removal and installation straightforward.
- Broad GTH Telehandler Coverage — Fits the GTH-844, GTH-1056, GTH-1256, GTH-1044, GTH-1244, and GTH-1544, covering a wide range of Genie telescopic handler configurations.
- Exhaust Flow Restored — A damaged or deteriorated tailpipe tube can cause exhaust leaks, increased noise, and potential fume exposure in the operator environment. This part restores proper exhaust routing and flow.
- Operator Safety Compliance — Maintaining an intact exhaust path is critical on enclosed or semi-enclosed jobsites. A correctly fitted tailpipe tube keeps exhaust gases directed away from the operator cab and surrounding work area.
The tailpipe tube is the final section of the exhaust system, channeling combustion gases from the muffler and out away from the machine. On Perkins-powered GTH telehandlers, this component must maintain a gas-tight connection to prevent exhaust leaks that could expose operators to harmful fumes or mask engine warning symptoms. When the tube cracks, corrodes, or separates at a joint, exhaust gases can escape into unintended areas — making prompt replacement essential for both safe operation and engine performance monitoring.
