The Bomag 05581179 Gas Spring is a genuine OEM component designed for a wide range of Bomag single drum rollers, refuse and landfill compactors, soil compactors, and recyclers/stabilizers. Sourced directly from Bomag, this gas spring delivers an exact fit for machines including BW 145 D-5, BW 145 DH-5, BW 145 PDH-5, BW 177-5, BW 177 D-5, BW 177 DH-5, BW 177 PDH-5, BW 177BVC-5, BC 462 EB, BC 462 RB, BC 472 RB, BC 472 RS, MPH 125, MPH 600, MPH 600 3B/4i-PB, MPH 600 EU-FLEX, and RS 650. Using the correct OEM part number 05581179 ensures the spring operates at the proper extension force and travel length for your specific machine configuration.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Force Calibration — engineered to Bomag's specified compression and extension force ratings, so the spring performs exactly as the machine's design demands
- Drop-In Fitment — mounts to existing attachment points with no modification, retaining OEM hardware and bracket geometry
- Broad Equipment Coverage — fits BW 145 and BW 177 series single drum rollers, BC 462 and BC 472 refuse, landfill, and soil compactors, and MPH 125, MPH 600, MPH 600 3B/4i-PB, MPH 600 EU-FLEX, and RS 650 recyclers/stabilizers
- Sustained Holding Force — maintains consistent preload over the service life of the assembly, preventing access panels, hoods, or hinged covers from sagging or failing to stay open during maintenance
- Sealed Gas Chamber Construction — the pressurized internal cylinder resists contamination from dust, moisture, and vibration common to compaction and stabilization worksites
A gas spring is a sealed, nitrogen-charged cylinder that uses internal gas pressure to provide controlled, consistent force across its stroke — typically used to assist in opening and holding hoods, engine compartments, cab doors, or access covers in the open position without the need for manual props or latches. When a gas spring weakens or fails, covers may drop unexpectedly during maintenance or fail to stay open under their own weight, creating a safety hazard for operators and technicians. Replacing a worn gas spring with the correct OEM unit restores the intended holding force and smooth, damped travel that the machine was built with.
