The Genie 5-2101-4GT is a genuine OEM Wearpad, 5X3X.50 designed for Genie GTH-series telehandlers, including the GTH-644, GTH-844, and GTH-842. Sourced directly from Genie, this wearpad matches the original component in material grade, thickness, and profile — so it seats correctly the first time without shimming or modification. Genuine OEM sourcing means you get the exact spec Genie engineering intended for these machines, keeping the boom extension system operating within proper tolerances. Cross-reference part number 5-2101-4GT against your parts manual to confirm application before ordering.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Wear Material — Manufactured to Genie's original material and hardness spec, delivering the same service life expected from the factory-installed wearpad on GTH telehandler boom sections.
- Direct Boom Section Fit — Sized at 5X3X.50 to drop into the original mounting position on GTH boom slides without reworking the contact surface or hardware.
- Broad GTH Telehandler Coverage — Fits the GTH-644, GTH-844, and GTH-842, covering multiple load capacities within the Genie telescopic handler line.
- Protects Structural Boom Surfaces — A properly conditioned wearpad absorbs the metal-on-metal contact between boom sections, preventing scoring and gouging on the primary structural tubing that would be costly to repair.
- Safe Boom Extension Performance — Worn or missing wearpads allow boom sections to shift laterally during extension and retraction. Replacing this component at the correct service interval is essential for controlled, predictable boom movement on an aerial telehandler.
A wearpad is a sacrificial low-friction pad positioned between the telescoping sections of a boom, designed to carry the load of one section sliding against another. On GTH telehandlers, the boom must extend and retract under load repeatedly throughout the workday — the wearpads guide this movement smoothly while absorbing the metal contact forces that would otherwise damage the boom tubes themselves. When a wearpad wears through or breaks down, boom sections can develop slop, bind under load, or make metal-to-metal contact that scores the structural steel. Replacing wearpads on schedule preserves boom geometry and keeps the machine operating safely within its rated capacity.
