Key Features
- Genuine OEM Pressure Rating — manufactured to Bomag's exact extension force and stroke specifications, so the gas spring delivers the same controlled assist as the original component it replaces
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — matches the original mounting brackets and end fittings on BC-series machines, allowing straightforward installation without modification
- Broad BC-Series Coverage — fits BC 772 RB, BC 672 RB, BC 572 RB, BC 772 RS, BC 672 RB, BC 772 EB, and BC 672 EB variants across -2, -3, and -4 generation refuse/landfill compactors and soil compactors
- Consistent Assisted Motion — a properly charged gas spring provides smooth, controlled opening and holding force for access panels and doors; a failed spring leaves heavy panels unsupported and creates a safety hazard for operators
- Operator Safety — keeping the gas spring in sound working condition ensures panels and hoods remain securely propped during inspection and service, protecting personnel from unexpected closures
A gas spring is a sealed, nitrogen-charged cylinder that uses compressed gas to generate a controlled extension force, typically used to counterbalance heavy access doors, hoods, or inspection panels on large compactors. On BC-series machines, the gas spring holds panels open at the correct angle during routine service and inspection, reducing the physical effort required by operators. When a gas spring loses pressure or the seals degrade, the panel it supports can drop unexpectedly — making prompt replacement essential for both safe machine operation and efficient daily servicing.
