Counter Balance Valve 43937GT / 43937 (Hydraulic Load Holding Valve) – Optimized Product Page Content

🔹 Product Overview
The Counter Balance Valve with part numbers 43937GT and 43937 is a crucial, high-specification hydraulic safety component used extensively in the main lift and boom functions of various Genie Articulating (Z-Series) and Telescopic (S-Series) Boom Lifts. This valve is a load-holding device that is typically mounted directly onto a critical hydraulic cylinder. Its primary function is to lock the cylinder’s position, preventing it from moving or collapsing under external load (like the weight of the boom and platform) or due to a sudden loss of hydraulic pressure (like a hose rupture).
This counterbalance valve is essential for the safety, stability, and control of the boom movement. The part number 43937GT is the necessary replacement for addressing dangerous issues such as boom drift, uncontrolled lowering, or jerky, unstable motion when operating the associated cylinder circuit. Proper installation of this valve is paramount for operator safety and machine compliance.
🔹 Key Features & Benefits
✅ Load-Holding Safety: Essential safety device that prevents cylinder creep, drift, or catastrophic collapse under load.
✅ Controlled Movement: Ensures smooth, controlled, and predictable movement when lowering or retracting the associated boom section.
✅ Broad Z/S-Series Fitment: Essential replacement for critical cylinders on popular models like the Z-34/22N, S-60, and S-65.
✅ Direct OEM Cross-Reference: High-quality aftermarket equivalent for Genie part numbers 43937GT and 43937.
