The Genie 80306GT is a genuine OEM U-Bolt, 3/8-16 X 3 X 2.375 designed for Genie GR-series Runabout vertical mast lifts, including the GR-8, GR-12, GR-15, and GR-20. Sourced directly from Genie, this hardware component carries the same specifications as the part originally installed at the factory, so you can restore your machine with confidence. Cross-reference part number 80306GT against your Genie parts manual to confirm fitment before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Hardware Integrity — Manufactured to Genie's exact thread pitch and dimensional spec, ensuring consistent clamping force and a secure connection without guesswork.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — The 3/8-16 X 3 X 2.375 dimensions match the original mounting points on GR-series mast lifts, so installation aligns with existing hardware and fastener patterns.
- Broad GR-Series Compatibility — Fits the GR-8, GR-12, GR-15, and GR-20 Runabout self-propelled vertical mast lifts, covering the full core range of this product family.
- Structural Clamping Performance — A correctly sized and torqued U-bolt keeps mast components, tubes, or assemblies firmly secured during operation; an undersized or worn fastener can allow unwanted movement that accelerates wear on surrounding parts.
- Operational Safety Assurance — On a vertical mast lift, fastener integrity is a load-bearing concern — using the specified OEM U-bolt helps maintain the structural reliability expected of personnel-handling equipment.
A U-bolt is a threaded fastener shaped like the letter U, with both open ends threaded to accept nuts. On Genie GR-series Runabout lifts, this hardware is used to clamp and secure tubular or cylindrical components within the mast assembly, holding them firmly in position under the stresses of repeated raising and lowering cycles. When a U-bolt stretches, strips, or fails to hold torque, the components it clamps can shift — leading to misalignment, accelerated wear on adjacent parts, and a potential safety concern on a machine designed to lift personnel.
