The Genie 226746GT UHMW Jib Hose Guard is a genuine OEM component designed for the SX-150 and SX-180 super-boom telescopic lifts. Sourced directly from Genie, this guard delivers the exact fit and material grade specified for these machines, so there is no guesswork on compatibility. Cross-reference part number 226746GT against your parts manual to confirm this is the correct guard for your serial range before ordering.
Key Features
- Ultra-High-Molecular-Weight Polyethylene Construction — UHMW material provides exceptional abrasion resistance and impact toughness, giving this guard the durability needed to protect hydraulic hoses through the demanding articulation cycles of a super-boom jib section.
- Genuine OEM Part — Manufactured to Genie's own specifications, ensuring the correct geometry, material grade, and mounting configuration for the SX-150 and SX-180 without any rework or shimming.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — This guard is engineered to drop into the existing mounting position on the jib, making a straightforward swap during scheduled maintenance or after damage inspection.
- Broad SX Super-Boom Compatibility — Fits the SX-150 and SX-180, Genie's highest-reaching telescopic boom platforms, covering a focused but demanding segment of the super-boom fleet.
- Hydraulic Hose Protection Where It Counts — A failed or missing jib hose guard exposes hydraulic lines to chafing, pinching, and impact damage at the jib section — one of the highest-movement points on the boom — which can lead to hydraulic fluid loss and boom function failure.
- Operational Safety Relevance — On aerial lifts operating at extreme heights, hydraulic hose integrity is directly tied to safe boom operation. Keeping this guard intact is a meaningful first line of defense for hose longevity and system reliability at elevation.
A jib hose guard is a protective channel or shield mounted along the jib section of a telescopic boom lift to route and shield hydraulic hoses from abrasion, snagging, and mechanical impact as the jib articulates and extends. The jib is the uppermost and most mobile section of the boom, meaning hoses in this area experience constant flexing and exposure. When the guard is cracked, missing, or worn through, unprotected hoses are vulnerable to chafing against structural members, which can cause slow leaks or sudden failures that compromise boom control and require the machine to be taken out of service.
