The Bomag 05713939 Conrod is a genuine OEM connecting rod built for BC 972 RB and BC 1172 RB refuse and landfill compactors. Sourced directly from Bomag, this conrod matches the original engineering specifications of the engine it serves, ensuring correct dimensions, tolerancing, and material grade. This component is confirmed to fit the BC 972 RB and BC 1172 RB — two of Bomag's heavy-duty landfill compaction machines — making part number 05713939 a straightforward, confidence-inspiring choice for engine rebuilds and overhauls on this equipment.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Engine Integrity — manufactured to Bomag's original connecting rod specifications, with the precise bearing bore dimensions and rod weight tolerances required for balanced engine operation
- Direct Engine Replacement — engineered to install in place of the original conrod without reworking or shimming, maintaining correct piston-to-crank geometry throughout the stroke
- Confirmed Fitment — validated for BC 972 RB and BC 1172 RB refuse and landfill compactors, so you can order with confidence knowing this conrod is the right match
- Sustained Power Delivery — a sound conrod transfers combustion force efficiently from piston to crankshaft; a worn or cracked rod leads to power loss, abnormal vibration, and rapid engine failure
- Critical Engine Safety Component — connecting rod failure can cause catastrophic engine damage; using a genuine OEM replacement rated for this application is essential when servicing high-load landfill compactor engines
A conrod — short for connecting rod — is the engine component that links the piston to the crankshaft, converting the up-and-down motion of combustion into the rotational force that drives the machine. In the heavy-duty operating environment of a refuse and landfill compactor, the conrod endures extreme cyclical stress with every engine revolution. When a conrod wears, bends, or fails, the result is typically severe internal engine damage — including crankshaft and cylinder wall destruction — making prompt replacement with a correctly specified part essential to restoring safe, reliable engine operation.
