The Genie 162194GT is a genuine OEM B4 Ret Cable Equalizer Weldment designed for the SX-150 and SX-180 telescopic super-boom lifts. As a factory-sourced component, this weldment meets the same specifications as the original part installed on the machine, ensuring a direct, reliable installation with no guesswork. Cross-reference part number 162194GT against your parts manual to confirm fitment before ordering. Whether you are restoring a boom that has lost retract cable tension or replacing a damaged equalizer assembly, this part is the correct solution for supported SX-series machines.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Fabricated to Genie's original weld and material specifications, so the equalizer geometry and cable contact points match what the retract system was engineered around.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Mounts in the same position as the original weldment on SX-150 and SX-180 booms, with existing hardware attachment points that align without rework.
- Confirmed SX Super-Boom Compatibility — Verified fitment for the SX-150 and SX-180 telescopic super-boom lifts, Genie's highest-reaching straight-boom platforms.
- Restores Even Cable Load Distribution — A functioning equalizer weldment keeps tension balanced across the retract cables; a bent or cracked unit causes uneven loading that accelerates cable wear and can impair smooth boom retraction.
- Structural Integrity Supports Safe Boom Operation — On high-reach telescopic booms, the retract cable system is critical to controlled boom movement at elevation. Replacing a compromised equalizer weldment with a genuine OEM part helps maintain the structural integrity the retract system depends on.
The cable equalizer weldment is a structural bracket within the boom's retract cable system that distributes tension evenly across multiple cables as the boom sections telescope in. By keeping load balanced, it prevents any single cable from bearing disproportionate stress during retraction, which protects both the cables and the sheaves they run across. When the weldment is cracked, bent, or worn at its contact surfaces, cable tension becomes uneven, leading to jerky or sluggish boom retraction, accelerated cable fatigue, and in severe cases an inability to fully retract the boom sections — all of which take a high-reach machine out of productive service until the component is replaced.
