The Bomag 05718583 Deflection Pulley is a genuine OEM component designed for BC 572 RB-2 and BC 473 RB-3 refuse/landfill compactors, as well as the BC 473 EB-3 soil compactor. Sourced directly from Bomag, this deflection pulley delivers an exact fit with no guesswork on compatibility. It is the correct service replacement to restore proper belt or cable routing on these BC-series machines and keep driveline systems running as engineered.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — manufactured to Bomag's original design tolerances, ensuring the pulley's bearing load rating, groove profile, and rotational alignment match the original component exactly
- Direct-Fit Replacement — engineered to drop into the existing mounting position on BC-series compactors, matching original bolt patterns and shaft dimensions for a straightforward installation
- Confirmed Fitment — verified for the BC 572 RB-2 refuse/landfill compactor, BC 473 RB-3 refuse/landfill compactor, and BC 473 EB-3 soil compactor
- Belt Path Integrity — a correctly seated deflection pulley maintains proper belt tension and tracking; a worn or seized pulley causes belt misalignment, accelerated belt wear, and potential driveline failure
- Authentic Bomag Part Number — listed and sold as part number 05718583, so you can order with confidence that you are receiving the correct component for your machine
A deflection pulley redirects a belt or cable along a specific path within the machine's drive or auxiliary system, maintaining the correct angle of wrap and tension across other driven components. It works in conjunction with drive pulleys and tensioners to keep the belt tracking true under load. When a deflection pulley wears, seizes, or develops bearing play, belt slippage, noise, and uneven wear follow quickly — and left unaddressed, a failed pulley can cause belt breakage and unplanned downtime on the compactor.
