The Genie 73887GT is a genuine OEM Top Rod Wear Pad designed for Genie S-80 and S-85 telescopic boom lifts. Sourced directly from Genie, this pad delivers the exact material grade and dimensional fit required to protect the boom's telescoping rod and maintain smooth, controlled extension. As a genuine OEM component, it meets the same specifications as the part installed at the factory, ensuring a direct, hassle-free swap with no guesswork on compatibility. Cross-reference part number 73887GT against your Genie parts manual to confirm fitment for your specific machine configuration before ordering.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Wear Material — Manufactured to the same material hardness and thickness spec as the original, so the pad absorbs rod friction consistently without accelerating wear on surrounding boom components.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Engineered to seat correctly in the boom assembly without trimming or rework, keeping installation straightforward for technicians familiar with the platform.
- Confirmed S-Series Fitment — Fits Genie S-80 and S-85 telescopic boom lifts; verify against your serial number and parts manual for exact applicability.
- Smooth Boom Extension — A properly seated wear pad reduces metal-on-metal contact during telescoping, preserving cylinder rod integrity and maintaining precise, consistent boom travel.
- Operational Safety Relevance — Worn or missing wear pads can allow lateral rod movement during extension, introducing instability at height. Replacing this pad at the correct service interval supports safe boom operation on the S-80 and S-85.
A top rod wear pad is a sacrificial component positioned in the boom's telescoping section to cushion and guide the inner rod as it extends and retracts. It bears the friction and lateral load that would otherwise act directly on the boom's structural rod and cylinder surfaces. When the pad wears through, metal contact accelerates damage to both the rod and the boom housing, leading to rough extension, scoring, and potentially costly structural repairs — making timely replacement an important part of boom lift maintenance.
