The Bomag 05557142 Air Conditioning Hose is a genuine OEM component designed for BC 972 RB-4 and BC 1172 RB-4 refuse and landfill compactors. Sourced directly from Bomag, this hose matches the original routing, diameter, and end-fitting specifications of the factory-installed part. It fits the BC 972 RB-4 and BC 1172 RB-4 exactly as installed at the factory, so there is no guesswork on compatibility. When the cab climate system needs attention, replacing this hose with a genuine Bomag part keeps the system performing as intended in demanding landfill environments.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — manufactured to Bomag's original material and pressure specifications for HVAC hose integrity in heavy compactor duty cycles
- Correct End-Fitting Geometry — matches the factory connection points on the AC system, allowing straightforward installation without adapters or modifications
- Confirmed Fitment — verified for BC 972 RB-4 and BC 1172 RB-4 refuse and landfill compactors using Bomag's OEM parts catalog
- Cab Comfort in the Field — a sound AC hose maintains refrigerant flow and system pressure, keeping the operator cab cool during long compaction shifts in hot, demanding conditions
- System Integrity Protection — using the correct hose routing and diameter prevents refrigerant leaks that can damage the compressor and other AC components over time
The air conditioning hose carries refrigerant between the major components of the cab HVAC system — the compressor, condenser, and evaporator — under cycling pressure. A cracked, kinked, or deteriorated hose allows refrigerant to escape, causing the AC system to lose cooling capacity or fail entirely. On large refuse and landfill compactors like the BC 972 RB-4 and BC 1172 RB-4, where operators spend extended hours in the cab, a properly sealed hose is essential to maintaining a controlled cabin environment and protecting the broader AC system from secondary damage.
