Run Tee Fitting 48906GT – Optimized Product Page Content

🔹 Product Overview
The Run Tee Fitting with Genie Part Numbers 48906 and 48906GT is a specialized hydraulic connector used to create a branch-off point within a hydraulic circuit, primarily in Genie Mobile Elevated Work Platforms (MEWPs). This component is defined by the industry-standard specification 520428-4, which signifies its tee shape, size, and thread configuration.
In a Run Tee configuration, the two ports forming the main “run” are parallel, while the third port (the “branch”) is typically positioned on one of the main ports, allowing a secondary connection to be added directly along the main fluid path. This is crucial for applications such as installing pressure sensors or gauge lines without interrupting the main hydraulic flow.
Due to its role in maintaining high-pressure integrity, any compromise to the 48906GT fitting—such as physical damage or thread wear—must be addressed immediately. Replacement with a quality component is essential to prevent hydraulic leaks, maintain system pressure, and ensure the precise operation of connected components.
