The Genie 52728GT is a genuine OEM Upper Pivot with Bearing designed for Genie Z-45 series articulating boom lifts, including the Z-45/22, Z-45/25, Z-45/25J IC Power, Z-45/25J DC, and Z-45/25J Bi-Energy. As a factory-original component, this part meets the same engineering standards as the pivot assembly installed at the time of manufacture, ensuring a correct, dependable fit within the boom's articulating joint. Cross-reference part number 52728GT against your Genie parts manual to confirm this is the correct component for your machine's serial range and configuration before ordering.
Key Features
- Factory-Original Construction — Genuine Genie OEM manufacture means the bearing insert and pivot housing are produced to the same tolerancing and material spec as the original assembly, maintaining the structural integrity of the boom's articulating joint.
- Integrated Bearing Assembly — The pivot and bearing ship as a matched unit, simplifying installation and eliminating the guesswork of sourcing separate components that may not align correctly.
- Broad Z-45 Series Coverage — Fits the Z-45/22, Z-45/25, Z-45/25J IC Power, Z-45/25J DC, and Z-45/25J Bi-Energy, covering the full range of Z-45 articulating boom variants.
- Smooth Boom Articulation — A correctly functioning upper pivot allows the boom's articulating joint to move freely and precisely through its full range of motion, supporting accurate platform positioning at height.
- Aerial Lift Safety Compliance — The upper pivot is a load-bearing structural joint. Using a genuine OEM replacement helps ensure the boom assembly continues to meet its rated structural and operational requirements — critical for safe work-at-height operations.
The upper pivot with bearing is a key structural component located at the articulating joint of the boom assembly. It allows the upper boom section to rotate and move relative to the lower structure, enabling the full range of articulated motion that makes Z-series booms effective at reaching up and over obstacles. When this pivot wears, corrodes, or the bearing fails, operators may notice slop or binding in boom movement, uneven articulation, or audible noise during operation — all signs that the joint is no longer performing as intended and that the component requires prompt replacement.
