The Genie 161712GT is a genuine OEM Jib Cover Weldment designed for Genie SX-150 and SX-180 super-boom telescopic lifts. Sourced directly from Genie, this weldment delivers the exact structural geometry and finish required for a correct, lasting installation on these high-reach machines. Cross-reference part number 161712GT against your parts manual to confirm fitment before ordering. As a genuine OEM component, this weldment is manufactured to the same standards as the original part it replaces, giving you confidence that the jib assembly will seat, align, and perform as intended.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Structural Integrity — Fabricated to the original weld specification for the jib section, ensuring the cover fits flush and maintains the structural profile of the boom assembly.
- Direct Bolt-On Replacement — Matches the original mounting points and contours of the jib on SX-150 and SX-180 super-boom lifts, allowing straightforward installation without rework or modification.
- Purpose-Built for SX Super-Boom Lifts — Confirmed fitment for the Genie SX-150 and SX-180, the tallest telescopic boom models in the Genie range, where precision in every structural component is critical.
- Protects Internal Jib Components — The cover shields hydraulic lines, cylinders, and structural members at the jib from debris, impact, and environmental exposure that can accelerate wear on exposed components.
- Safety-Relevant Structural Component — A damaged or missing jib cover on a super-boom lift can leave load-bearing and hydraulic elements vulnerable; replacing it promptly helps keep the boom assembly operating safely at height.
The jib cover weldment is a fabricated steel enclosure that surrounds and protects the jib section at the end of the telescopic boom. On super-boom lifts like the SX-150 and SX-180, the jib carries the platform and its associated hydraulic and electrical connections at extreme working heights, making the cover's role in shielding those components from damage especially important. When this weldment cracks, corrodes, or is damaged by impact, internal components are exposed to debris and stress that can lead to more costly repairs if left unaddressed.
