The Genie 6550GT is a genuine OEM U-Bolt, 3/8 x 1 YZ designed for an exceptionally wide range of Genie aerial equipment, including S and Z series boom lifts, AWP and IWP push-around personnel lifts, GR vertical mast lifts, TMZ trailer-mounted articulating booms, and several legacy personnel-lift lines. Sourced directly from Genie, this part carries the same specification as the original hardware installed at the factory, making it a straightforward drop-in replacement. Cross-reference part number 6550GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm applicability before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Hardware Spec — Zinc-yellow (YZ) finish meets the original corrosion-resistance requirement for this fastener, maintaining the integrity of the connection point it secures.
- Correct Thread and Saddle Dimensions — The 3/8 x 1 sizing matches the original mounting envelope exactly, so the part seats and torques correctly without shimming or rework.
- Broad Fleet Coverage — A single part number serves S and Z series boom lifts, AWP and IWP personnel lifts, GR Runabout mast lifts, TMZ trailer booms, and multiple legacy Genie lines, simplifying parts inventory across a mixed fleet.
- Structural Retention Function — U-bolts on aerial equipment secure cables, hoses, or structural members at critical routing points; a correctly fitted bolt maintains clamping load and prevents movement-induced wear on adjacent components.
- Safety-Critical Fastener — On boom lifts and personnel lifts, unsecured or under-torqued hardware at routing and mounting points can compromise operational integrity; using the specified OEM part supports proper torque and load compliance.
A U-bolt is a threaded fastener shaped like the letter U, with both legs passing through or around a mounting surface and secured with nuts on the flat side. On aerial work platforms and boom lifts, U-bolts are commonly used to clamp hydraulic hose bundles, cable harnesses, or structural tubes to the machine's frame or boom sections, keeping them secured against vibration and movement during operation. When a U-bolt loosens, corrodes, or fails, the lines or components it holds can shift, chafe, or detach — leading to accelerated wear, hydraulic leaks, or electrical faults that take equipment out of service.
