The Genie 71840GT is a genuine OEM Lower Ext Inner Wear Pad designed for GS-2668 RT, GS-3268 RT, GS-2668 DC, and GS-3268 DC rough-terrain and electric drive scissor lifts. As a direct Genie OEM component, this wear pad is manufactured to the same specifications as the original part, ensuring a correct fit within the scissor arm extension assembly. Cross-reference part number 71840GT against your Genie parts manual to confirm suitability for your specific machine before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Material Grade — Sourced directly from Genie, this wear pad is produced from the same wear-resistant material as the original, maintaining the low-friction sliding characteristics the scissor extension system depends on.
- Drop-In Extension Fit — Engineered to seat correctly within the lower inner extension channel, this pad installs without reworking mounting points or hardware.
- Confirmed Fitment for GS RT and DC Models — Compatible with GS-2668 RT, GS-3268 RT, GS-2668 DC, and GS-3268 DC scissor lifts, covering both rough-terrain and electric drive variants in the GS heavy-duty range.
- Preserves Smooth Extension Travel — A properly functioning wear pad prevents metal-on-metal contact between scissor arm components, keeping extension movement smooth and protecting surrounding structural surfaces from accelerated wear.
- Operational Safety on Rough Terrain — On RT-series scissor lifts working across uneven surfaces, a worn or missing inner wear pad can introduce unwanted play into the extension assembly, affecting platform stability. Replacing this component on schedule supports safe, controlled operation at height.
Wear pads are sacrificial components positioned between sliding metal surfaces inside the scissor arm extension assembly. Their job is to absorb friction and distribute load as the extension deploys and retracts, preventing direct steel-to-steel contact that would rapidly damage more costly structural components. When a lower inner extension wear pad wears thin or breaks down, operators may notice roughness or binding during extension travel, increased play in the arm assembly, or visible scoring on the surrounding channel surfaces — all signs that replacement is overdue.
