The Bomag 05714571 Exhaust Elbow is a genuine OEM component designed for BC 972 RB and BC 1172 RB refuse and landfill compactors. Sourced directly from Bomag, this exhaust elbow matches the original part in material, geometry, and fitment — no guesswork, no adaptation. It installs directly into the exhaust system of these heavy-duty compactors, restoring correct exhaust routing and engine ventilation. Confirmed fitment covers the BC 972 RB and BC 1172 RB refuse and landfill compactor models.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Heat and Corrosion Resistance — manufactured to Bomag's original material specification, this exhaust elbow withstands the high temperatures and harsh operating conditions common to refuse and landfill compactor applications.
- Exact Replacement Geometry — the elbow matches the original bend angle and connection dimensions, allowing it to seat and seal correctly against adjoining exhaust components without modification.
- Confirmed Fitment for BC-Series Refuse Compactors — verified for the BC 972 RB and BC 1172 RB refuse and landfill compactors, so you can order with confidence knowing this is the right part for your machine.
- Proper Exhaust Flow Maintained — a correctly fitted exhaust elbow keeps combustion gases routed away from the engine bay efficiently; a cracked or misaligned elbow can cause heat buildup, emissions issues, and potential engine strain.
- Exhaust Integrity and Operator Safety — a failed or leaking exhaust elbow can allow hot gases to escape into the cab environment or near fuel and hydraulic lines; replacing it with a genuine OEM part restores safe, sealed exhaust routing.
The exhaust elbow is a curved pipe fitting that connects sections of the exhaust system, directing combustion gases away from the engine and out of the machine safely. On heavy refuse and landfill compactors like the BC 972 RB and BC 1172 RB, the exhaust system operates under sustained high heat and vibration, making the integrity of every joint and fitting critical. When an exhaust elbow cracks, warps, or develops a leak, it disrupts proper exhaust flow, can expose nearby components to dangerous heat, and may trigger emissions or engine performance issues that take the machine out of service.
