The Genie 36937GT is a genuine OEM Thrust Washer, 2.0 X 3.0 X.188, designed for Genie Z-series articulating boom lifts including the Z-45/25, Z-45/25J IC Power, Z-45/25J DC, Z-45/25J Bi-Energy, Z-45 XC, Z-25/8, Z-20/8, and Z-20/8N. As a genuine OEM component, this washer is manufactured to the same specification as the original part, ensuring an exact match for the application. Cross-reference part number 36937GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm fitment before ordering. Keeping the correct thrust washer in service is essential to the long-term integrity of the boom's pivot and rotation points.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Material and Dimensional Accuracy — Manufactured to Genie's original tolerances for the 2.0 X 3.0 X .188 spec, delivering the correct load distribution across mating surfaces.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to seat and align exactly as the original, requiring no rework of adjacent hardware or pivot assemblies during installation.
- Broad Z-Series Compatibility — Fits a wide range of Genie articulating boom lifts, including Z-45/25 variants, Z-45 XC, Z-25/8, Z-20/8, and Z-20/8N models.
- Controls Axial Load and Prevents Metal-on-Metal Contact — A correctly specified thrust washer absorbs axial forces at pivot joints, protecting mating components from accelerated wear and scoring.
- Operational Safety at Boom Pivot Points — Worn or missing thrust washers allow excessive play in articulating joints, which can compromise boom control and structural predictability at height — making correct replacement a genuine safety consideration.
A thrust washer is a flat bearing component positioned at rotating or pivoting joints to manage axial — or end-to-end — load between two moving surfaces. In an articulating boom lift, these washers are located at key pin joints throughout the boom structure, where they prevent direct metal contact between pivot components and distribute the forces generated during boom extension, articulation, and load-bearing. When a thrust washer wears thin or fails, the resulting metal-to-metal contact accelerates damage to pins and bores, introduces unwanted play into boom movement, and can lead to costly structural repairs if left unaddressed.
