The Genie 1256459GT is a genuine OEM Shim Washer,.938X1.37X0.048, ZA designed for Genie GTH telehandlers, including the GTH-636, GTH-844, GTH-1056, GTH-1256, GTH-1044, GTH-1244, and GTH-1544. As a direct OEM replacement, this shim washer is manufactured to the same specifications as the original component installed at the factory, ensuring an exact fit within the assembly. Cross-reference part number 1256459GT against your GTH parts manual to confirm application before ordering. This shim washer is an essential service part to have on hand when rebuilding or adjusting tolerances on your telehandler.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Material and Dimensional Accuracy — Zinc-alloy (ZA) construction and precise thickness spec (.048) maintain the correct stack tolerance in the assembly, preventing play, misalignment, or premature wear.
- Drop-In Replacement — Matches the original bore, outer diameter, and thickness exactly, so this washer seats correctly without secondary machining or fitting work.
- Broad GTH Telehandler Coverage — Fits the GTH-636, GTH-844, GTH-1056, GTH-1256, GTH-1044, GTH-1244, and GTH-1544, covering a wide range of Genie telescopic handler models.
- Correct Clearance Control — Shim washers at this tolerance class set the working clearance between mating components; using the wrong thickness shifts load distribution and accelerates wear on adjacent parts.
- Critical for Safe Boom and Carriage Operation — On a telehandler, improper shimming in boom pivot or carriage assemblies can affect structural alignment under load — using the correctly specified shim washer is essential for safe operation.
A shim washer is a precisely dimensioned spacer used to set or restore the correct clearance between two mating components — such as pivot pins, bushings, or structural brackets. In a telehandler like the GTH series, shim washers are commonly found in boom pivot points, carriage assemblies, and axle or drive-train interfaces, where controlling axial play and load distribution is critical to smooth, accurate machine operation. When a shim washer wears, deforms, or is lost during service, the resulting excess clearance causes slop in the joint, uneven loading on surrounding components, and accelerated wear that can develop into a more significant mechanical failure if left unaddressed.
