The Genie 36457GT is a genuine OEM Thrust Washer,.313 X.50 X.10, designed for Genie Z-34/22 and Z-30/20 series articulating boom lifts. Sourced directly from Genie, this washer meets the exact dimensional and material specifications required for proper load transfer and joint performance in these machines. It is a confirmed fit for the Z-34/22 N, Z-34/22 DC, Z-34/22 Bi-Energy, Z-30/20 N, and Z-30/20N RJ. Cross-reference part number 36457GT against your parts manual to verify compatibility before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Dimensional Accuracy — Manufactured to the exact .313 X .50 X .10 specification, ensuring correct load distribution across the joint surface without shimming or adjustment.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — This washer seats into the original thrust position with no rework to mating components, maintaining the designed clearance and bearing interface.
- Broad Z-Series Coverage — Fits the Z-34/22 N, Z-34/22 DC, Z-34/22 Bi-Energy, Z-30/20 N, and Z-30/20N RJ articulating boom lifts from a single part number.
- Sustained Joint Integrity — A correctly sized thrust washer prevents metal-to-metal contact at pivot points, extending the service life of surrounding pins, bushings, and structural components.
- Operational Safety at Height — Worn or undersized thrust washers introduce slop into articulating boom joints, which can affect boom positioning stability — replacing this component on schedule is a genuine safety consideration for aerial work platforms.
A thrust washer is a flat bearing element positioned at a pivot or rotating joint to absorb axial (end-to-end) load and control the spacing between moving components. In an articulating boom lift, thrust washers are found at key structural pivot points where boom sections rotate or articulate under load — keeping those joints moving smoothly while preventing unwanted lateral play. When a thrust washer wears thin or fails, the result is increased clearance at the joint, which can cause uneven movement, accelerated wear on adjacent hardware, and reduced precision in boom positioning — all of which become critical concerns when the platform is elevated.
