The Bomag 05540996 Adapter is a genuine OEM component designed for Bomag BC-series refuse/landfill compactors and soil compactors, including the BC 671 RS, BC 771 RS, BC 772 RB, BC 772 RS, BC 672 RB, BC 572 RB-2, BC 473 RB-4, BC 473 RS-4, BC 772 EB-2, BC 672 EB-2, BC 473 EB-4, and related generation variants. Sourced directly from Bomag, this adapter carries the same manufacturing tolerances and material standards as the part originally installed on your machine. With coverage spanning multiple compactor generations — from RB and RS refuse/landfill models to EB soil compactor variants — part number 05540996 is a straightforward, direct-fit replacement that keeps your machine back in service without guesswork.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Dimensional Accuracy — machined to Bomag's original interface specifications, ensuring the adapter seats and connects exactly as intended without rework or shimming
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — engineered to match the original mounting geometry on BC-series machines, so installation follows standard service procedures
- Broad BC-Series Coverage — fits BC 671 RS, BC 771 RS, BC 772 RB/RS, BC 672 RB, BC 572 RB-2, BC 772 RB-2/RS-2, BC 772 RB-3/RS-3, BC 772 RB-4/RS-4, BC 672 RB-2/RB-3/RB-4, BC 473 RB-3/RB-4, BC 473 RS-4, and EB soil compactor variants BC 772 EB-2, BC 772 EB-4, BC 672 EB-2, BC 473 EB-3, and BC 473 EB-4
- Correct Material and Load Ratings — manufactured from materials selected to handle the operating stresses present on heavy refuse and soil compactors, maintaining the mechanical integrity of the connected system
- Multi-Generation Compatibility — a single part number covers RB, RS, and EB variants across multiple production generations, simplifying parts management for mixed fleets
An adapter serves as a precision interface component that connects two separate assemblies or fittings, allowing them to mate correctly when their thread types, diameters, or port configurations differ. On heavy BC-series compactors, adapters appear throughout hydraulic, drivetrain, and attachment systems where standardized hardware must interface with machine-specific ports or mounting points. A worn, damaged, or incorrect adapter can cause fluid leaks, misalignment, or mechanical play that compromises both performance and the integrity of adjacent components — making an exact-fit OEM replacement the safest and most reliable choice when service is required.
