The Bomag 05581223 Gas Spring is a genuine OEM component designed for the RS 500, RS 460, and RS460 Stage V recycler/stabilizers. Sourced directly from Bomag, this gas spring delivers an exact match to the original part in dimensions, pressure rating, and mounting interface — ensuring it installs correctly the first time without modification. This replacement is the right call when an aging or failed gas spring can no longer hold panels, hoods, or access doors reliably in position on your machine.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Pressure Consistency — manufactured to Bomag's original gas charge specification, so this spring holds its designated load force across the full range of motion without sagging or overextending
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — matches the original end fittings, stroke length, and body diameter for a straightforward swap on RS 500, RS 460, and RS460 Stage V recycler/stabilizers
- Broad RS-Series Coverage — a single part number covers the RS 460, RS460 Stage V, and RS 500, making it the go-to spring across Bomag's professional recycler/stabilizer lineup
- Operator Safety Support — a correctly charged gas spring holds heavy access doors and engine covers securely open during service, protecting technicians working beneath them
- OEM Part Number Assurance — ordering by Bomag part number 05581223 confirms you receive the correct spring for your machine, eliminating the risk of receiving a mismatched unit
A gas spring is a sealed pneumatic strut that uses compressed gas to generate a controlled, consistent pushing or holding force. On heavy recycler/stabilizers like the RS 500 and RS 460, gas springs are typically used to support engine hoods, service panels, or other heavy hinged covers, keeping them safely propped open during inspection and maintenance. When a gas spring loses its charge or its seals deteriorate, the supported panel can drop unexpectedly — creating a safety hazard and disrupting service intervals until the spring is replaced.
