The Genie 108869GT Wearpad, 2x7x.75 LD is a genuine OEM component designed for the GTH-1048 and GTH-1056 telehandlers. Sourced directly from Genie, this wearpad matches the original material grade, dimensions, and profile specified for these machines — so it seats and bears load exactly as intended. This part is confirmed to fit the GTH-1048 and GTH-1056; cross-reference 108869GT against your parts manual before ordering to ensure correct application. Keeping a fresh wearpad in place is one of the most straightforward ways to protect the boom structure and maintain smooth, controlled extension and retraction on the job.
Key Features
- OEM Material Match — Manufactured to the same material composition and load-bearing grade as the original, ensuring the wearpad absorbs boom contact forces without premature compression or cracking.
- Exact Profile Fit — Cut to the 2x7x.75 LD specification, this wearpad drops into the boom slide channel without trimming or shimming.
- Confirmed Telehandler Fitment — Designed specifically for the GTH-1048 and GTH-1056, two of Genie's most widely used telescopic handler models on commercial and industrial sites.
- Protects Boom Structure — A correctly sized wearpad cushions metal-on-metal contact inside the boom sections, limiting scoring and wear on structural components that are far more costly to replace.
- Smooth Boom Travel — Worn or missing wearpads allow boom sections to shift laterally, creating uneven extension, unwanted play, and excessive stress on pins and cylinders. Replacing this part restores tight, consistent boom movement.
- Operational Safety Compliance — On a telehandler, boom section stability directly affects load control at height. Maintaining serviceable wearpads is a recognized part of safe lift operation and routine inspection protocols.
Wearpads are sacrificial wear components positioned between the nested boom sections of a telescopic handler. As the boom extends and retracts under load, these pads bear the sliding friction and lateral forces that would otherwise act directly on the steel boom tubes — absorbing wear so the structural sections are protected. When a wearpad wears thin or breaks down, boom sections develop side-to-side play, extension becomes less smooth, and the increased metal contact can score or gouge the boom tubes themselves. Replacing the wearpad at the correct service interval is a low-cost, high-impact maintenance task that preserves the integrity of the entire boom assembly.
