The Genie 108870GT is a genuine OEM Wearpad, 3x3x.875, LD designed for the GTH-1048 and GTH-1056 telehandlers. Sourced directly from Genie, this wearpad delivers the exact material grade, dimensions, and load rating specified for these machines — ensuring the boom sections slide, align, and bear load exactly as engineered. This genuine OEM component fits directly into place on compatible GTH telehandler boom assemblies, with no reworking or adaptation needed to match the original mounting points. Confirm fitment by cross-referencing part number 108870GT against your GTH-1048 or GTH-1056 parts manual before ordering.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Material and Load Rating — Manufactured to Genie's specified load designation (LD) and dimensional tolerances, so the wearpad provides the correct bearing surface and compression resistance under working boom loads.
- Exact 3x3x.875 Dimensions — Cut to the precise profile required for the GTH-1048 and GTH-1056 boom sections, seating flush in the slide channel without shimming or trimming.
- Direct Replacement for GTH Telehandlers — Verified for the GTH-1048 and GTH-1056, making this the correct part for those machines' boom wear surfaces without substitution or guesswork.
- Protects Boom Structural Surfaces — A serviceable wearpad sacrifices itself to protect the boom's steel slide surfaces. Replacing worn pads on schedule prevents metal-on-metal contact that causes costly boom section damage.
- Operational Safety of Boom Extension — Worn or missing wearpads allow boom sections to shift laterally under load, affecting load control and boom alignment. Keeping this component in good condition is directly tied to safe telehandler operation.
Wearpads are consumable wear components positioned between the telescoping boom sections of a telehandler. They act as a low-friction buffer layer that guides each boom section as it extends and retracts, keeping the sections centered and preventing direct metal contact between the inner and outer boom tubes. As the pads wear down over time and operating cycles, boom sections can develop lateral play, leading to uneven load distribution, increased stress on the boom structure, and reduced control accuracy. Replacing the wearpad with the correct OEM part restores the designed clearance and slide behavior, keeping the boom operating smoothly and predictably under load.
