The Bomag 05581224 Gas Spring is a genuine OEM component designed for the RS 500, RS 460, and RS460 Stage V recycler/stabilizer machines. Sourced directly from Bomag, this gas spring meets the exact specifications required for proper operation on these stabilizer platforms. It is a direct-fit replacement for worn or failed units, restoring correct function without modification to the host assembly.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Pressure Consistency — engineered to Bomag's exact gas charge and stroke specifications, ensuring the spring delivers the correct resistive force throughout its travel range
- Direct-Fit Replacement — matches the original mounting points and end fittings on RS-series recycler/stabilizers, dropping in where the original unit was installed
- Confirmed Fitment — compatible with RS 500, RS 460, and RS460 Stage V recycler/stabilizers, covering diesel and Stage V emission-compliant variants in the RS family
- Sustained Support Force — a correctly functioning gas spring holds panels, covers, or assemblies securely in the open position during service, keeping access safe and hands-free
- Extended Service Life — genuine OEM construction uses seals and gas charge matched to Bomag's design life expectations, resisting premature pressure loss in demanding field conditions
A gas spring is a self-contained pneumatic strut that uses compressed gas — typically nitrogen — sealed inside a cylinder to generate a controlled, consistent extension force. On heavy recycler/stabilizer equipment like the RS 500 and RS 460, gas springs are commonly used to support access panels, hoods, or hinged covers, holding them open during inspection and service without requiring a prop rod. When a gas spring loses its charge or the internal seals fail, the supported component can drop unexpectedly, creating a service hazard and interrupting maintenance workflow. Replacing a failed unit with the correct Bomag part number 05581224 restores the intended support force and keeps the machine ready for routine servicing.
