Key Features
- OEM Material Match — Manufactured to Genie's original material specification, this wear pad delivers the same hardness, surface finish, and dimensional profile as the part it replaces, ensuring consistent contact and wear characteristics in the boom structure.
- Direct Slide-In Replacement — At 5.5 X 1.75 X .5, this pad installs directly into the boom section wear pad pocket with no trimming or rework required.
- Broad Boom Lift Coverage — Fits a wide range of Genie telescopic and articulating boom lifts, including S-60, S-65, S-80, S-85, SX-135 XC, SX-150, SX-180, Z-135/70, ZX-135/70, and Z-80/60 models, as well as multiple XC, TRAX, HF, and XC FE variants.
- Smooth Boom Extension — A properly seated wear pad reduces metal-to-metal contact between boom sections, allowing the boom to telescope or articulate smoothly and evenly. A worn or missing pad causes binding, uneven extension, and accelerated structural wear.
- Structural Integrity at Height — In aerial boom lifts, worn wear pads can introduce unwanted play and lateral movement in the boom sections, directly affecting platform stability at working height. Replacing this pad on schedule is a critical part of maintaining safe machine operation.
Wear pads are sacrificial components positioned between the inner and outer sections of a telescoping or articulating boom. Their job is to provide a controlled sliding surface that absorbs the friction and side-load forces generated as the boom extends, retracts, or articulates under load. By cushioning metal-to-metal contact, they protect the boom section walls from scoring and premature wear. When a wear pad wears through or becomes damaged, it allows the boom sections to shift and rattle against each other, leading to rough or uneven travel, abnormal noise, and eventual damage to the boom structure itself — making timely replacement essential for both performance and safety.
