The Bomag 72400174 Flat Steel is a genuine OEM component designed for the BPH 80/65 S reversible vibratory plate and the BMP 851 and BMP 8500 trench compactors. As a direct factory replacement, this flat steel meets Bomag's original material and dimensional standards, ensuring it seats and functions exactly as the original did. Sourcing a genuine OEM part means no guesswork on fitment — part number 72400174 is the correct specification for these machines straight from Bomag.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Material Integrity — manufactured to Bomag's original steel grade and thickness specifications, so this flat steel delivers the same structural performance as the factory-installed component
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — dimensioned to match the original mounting points and profiles on the BPH 80/65 S, BMP 851, and BMP 8500, allowing straightforward installation without rework
- Confirmed Fitment Coverage — verified for the BPH 80/65 S reversible vibratory plate, BMP 851 trench compactor, and BMP 8500 trench compactor
- Structural Consistency Under Load — a correctly fitted flat steel maintains the alignment and rigidity of the assembly it supports; a worn or bent piece can cause misalignment, uneven compaction force, or accelerated wear on surrounding components
- OEM Part Number Assurance — ordering by part number 72400174 confirms you are receiving the exact Bomag-sourced component, eliminating the risk of receiving a dimensionally incompatible substitute
A flat steel is a precision-cut structural member used within the frame or working assembly of compaction equipment to provide a rigid mounting surface, spacer, or load-bearing interface between components. On machines like the BPH 80/65 S reversible vibratory plate and the BMP 851 and BMP 8500 trench compactors, these elements help maintain the geometry and integrity of key assemblies under continuous vibration and compaction forces. When a flat steel becomes bent, cracked, or worn, it can compromise the alignment of adjacent parts and reduce the effectiveness of the compaction system, making timely replacement important to keeping the machine performing as intended.
