The Bomag 57162184 Footboard is a genuine OEM component designed for BC 972 RB and BC 1172 RB refuse and landfill compactors. Sourced directly from Bomag, this footboard matches the original part in dimensions, material, and mounting configuration — ensuring a straight swap with no fitment guesswork. It is confirmed compatible with BC 972 RB and BC 1172 RB machines, making it the correct choice for operators maintaining these compactors to OEM standards.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — manufactured to Bomag's original material and dimensional specifications, delivering the same structural integrity as the part it replaces
- Direct Bolt-On Replacement — matches the original mounting points and profile on BC 972 RB and BC 1172 RB compactors for a clean, straightforward installation
- Confirmed Fitment — verified for BC 972 RB and BC 1172 RB refuse and landfill compactors, so you can order with confidence
- Durable Platform Integrity — a sound footboard gives operators a stable, secure surface for mounting and dismounting; a cracked or worn board creates unnecessary hazard during daily operation
- Operator Safety — as a step and standing surface on heavy compaction equipment, a properly fitted OEM footboard supports safe machine access in demanding landfill and refuse-site conditions
The footboard on a refuse and landfill compactor serves as the operator's primary step and standing platform when entering or exiting the cab. It bears repeated load cycles under harsh conditions — compacted refuse, uneven terrain, and constant vibration — and must remain structurally sound to keep access safe and consistent. When a footboard cracks, corrodes, or breaks away from its mounts, it creates a slip and fall risk and should be replaced promptly with a part built to the original specification.
