The Genie 74044GT is a genuine OEM Ext Boom Wear Pad designed for Genie Z-series articulating boom lifts, including the Z-40/23N, Z-40/23N RJ, Z-30/20N, and Z-30/20N RJ. As a factory-sourced component, this wear pad meets Genie's original design and material specifications, making it a direct-replacement part for the extending boom section on these machines. Cross-reference part number 74044GT against your parts manual to confirm fitment before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Material Grade — Sourced directly from Genie, this wear pad is manufactured to the same material hardness and dimensional tolerances as the original, ensuring consistent sliding performance across the boom extension surface.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to seat into the existing wear pad channel on the extending boom section without reworking or shimming the mounting location.
- Confirmed Fitment for Z-Series Articulating Booms — Compatible with the Z-40/23N, Z-40/23N RJ, Z-30/20N, and Z-30/20N RJ, covering both standard and rotating-jib variants of these articulating boom platforms.
- Protects Structural Boom Surfaces — A correctly functioning wear pad absorbs the friction and contact load during boom extension and retraction, protecting the boom tube's steel surfaces from accelerated wear and scoring.
- Operational Safety at Height — On an articulating boom lift, worn or missing wear pads can introduce unwanted play and instability into the extending boom section. Replacing this pad on schedule helps maintain the structural integrity of the boom at working height.
A boom wear pad is a replaceable low-friction insert positioned between the inner and outer boom tube sections where they slide against each other during extension and retraction. Its job is to take on the contact stress and abrasion that would otherwise be transferred directly to the boom's structural steel. As the pad wears down over time, metal-on-metal contact begins to occur, which causes scoring of the boom tubes, introduces slop and misalignment into the extension mechanism, and can ultimately compromise the smooth, controlled movement of the boom at elevation. Inspecting and replacing wear pads at the intervals specified in the machine's maintenance schedule is one of the most cost-effective ways to preserve boom tube condition and keep the extension system operating correctly.
