The Genie 50552GT is a genuine OEM Extension Boom Wear Pad designed for Genie Z-series articulating boom lifts, including the Z-45/25, Z-45/25J, Z-45/22, and Z-51/30J families. As a direct OEM replacement, this wear pad is manufactured to the same specification as the original component, ensuring a proper fit without the guesswork. It is compatible across multiple Z-45 variants — including IC Power, DC, and Bi-Energy configurations — as well as the Z-51/30J, making it a versatile service part for fleets running mixed Z-series equipment. Cross-reference part number 50552GT against your parts manual to confirm fitment for your specific machine configuration before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Material Grade — Manufactured to the same wear-resistance specification as the original pad, maintaining the correct friction and slide characteristics for the extension boom channel.
- Drop-In Replacement — Seats directly into the extension boom slide position on supported Z-series models, requiring no machining or custom fitting.
- Broad Z-Series Fitment — Fits Genie Z-45/25, Z-45/25J (IC Power, DC, and Bi-Energy), Z-45/25 IC, Z-45/25J IC, Z-45/22, and Z-51/30J articulating boom lifts.
- Preserves Boom Extension Smoothness — A correctly functioning wear pad allows the extension boom to slide cleanly and evenly; a worn pad causes slop, uneven extension, and accelerated wear on surrounding boom components.
- Safe Operation at Height — On an articulating boom lift, proper boom slide control is directly tied to platform stability. Replacing worn pads on schedule helps maintain the controlled, predictable boom movement that safe operation at elevation depends on.
Extension boom wear pads are low-friction slide inserts fitted between the telescoping boom sections of an articulating boom lift. They act as sacrificial bearing surfaces — designed to absorb the contact stress as the inner boom section extends and retracts, protecting the steel boom tubes from direct metal-on-metal wear. Over time, these pads wear down through normal use, leading to increased play in the boom, rougher extension movement, and eventual damage to the boom channel itself if left unaddressed. Replacing the wear pad at the first sign of slop or uneven travel restores smooth, controlled boom extension and protects the more costly structural components from premature wear.
