The Genie 1268482GT is a genuine OEM Clamping U-Bolt, 2.75" DIA, designed for the Genie Z-62/40 articulating boom lift. Sourced directly from Genie, this component delivers the exact geometry and material specification required for a correct, secure installation. As a genuine OEM part, it is manufactured to the same standards as the original hardware fitted to the machine at the factory, giving you confidence that the replacement is the right match for part number 1268482GT. Cross-reference 1268482GT against your parts manual to confirm fitment before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Clamping Integrity — Manufactured to Genie's original dimensional and material specification, ensuring the U-bolt delivers the correct clamping force and thread engagement for a 2.75" diameter application.
- Direct Bolt-On Installation — This U-bolt is engineered to seat correctly in the existing bracket and saddle on the Z-62/40, requiring no reworking of mounting hardware.
- Dedicated Z-62/40 Fitment — Confirmed for the Genie Z-62/40 articulating boom lift, so you can order with confidence that this is the correct clamping hardware for that machine.
- Sustained Clamping Performance — Proper thread form and material grade maintain consistent clamping load over time, resisting loosening from vibration and repeated boom articulation cycles.
- Structural Safety Relevance — U-bolts in boom assemblies secure hoses, tubes, and structural members along the arm. A worn, cracked, or under-torqued U-bolt can allow movement or chafing that compromises boom integrity and should be replaced promptly.
A clamping U-bolt is a curved fastener shaped like the letter "U" with threaded ends, used with a saddle plate and nuts to clamp and secure components — such as hydraulic hoses, cables, or structural tubing — firmly to a mounting surface along the boom arm. On an articulating boom like the Z-62/40, these fasteners endure constant flexing and vibration as the boom extends and articulates through its range of motion. When a U-bolt stretches, cracks, or loses its clamping load, the secured components can shift, chafe, or become damaged, making timely replacement an important part of routine boom maintenance.
