The Bomag 57010196 Covering Plate is a genuine OEM component designed for BC 1172 RB-3 and BC 972 RB-3 refuse/landfill compactors. Sourced directly from Bomag, this covering plate matches the original in material, profile, and mounting geometry — ensuring a drop-in fit with no guesswork. It is confirmed compatible with both BC 1172 RB-3 and BC 972 RB-3 machines, so you can order with confidence knowing part number 57010196 is the correct choice for your compactor.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — manufactured to Bomag's exact material and dimensional standards, delivering the same service life as the original covering plate
- Direct Bolt-On Replacement — matches the original mounting pattern and profile, fitting flush without rework or shimming
- Confirmed Compactor Fitment — verified for BC 1172 RB-3 and BC 972 RB-3 refuse/landfill compactors; part number 57010196 cross-references directly to these machines
- Structural Protection — shields underlying components from impact, debris, and material ingress that are constant hazards in landfill and refuse compaction environments
- Maintains Machine Integrity — a damaged or missing covering plate exposes internal assemblies to accelerated wear; replacing it promptly keeps critical components protected and the machine running at full capacity
A covering plate serves as a protective barrier over internal or exposed mechanical areas of the compactor, guarding against the debris, compacted material, and heavy-duty impacts inherent to landfill and refuse compaction work. Without this plate in place, adjacent components are left vulnerable to contamination, corrosion, and physical damage that can escalate into costly repairs. Replacing a worn, cracked, or missing covering plate with a genuine Bomag part like the part restores that protective envelope and helps keep the surrounding assemblies in serviceable condition.
