The Bomag 05554246 Hose is a genuine OEM hose designed for BC 972 RB, BC 1172 RB, BC 972 RB-2, and BC 1172 RB-2 refuse and landfill compactors. Sourced directly from Bomag, this hose matches the original equipment specification, ensuring correct routing, connection sizing, and pressure compatibility right out of the box. Whether you are restoring a machine after a line failure or completing a scheduled fluid system service, this hose delivers the exact fit your compactor demands. Confirm your model against part number 05554246 before ordering to ensure a straight swap with no adaptations needed.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — built to the same pressure ratings and material grade as the original hose, maintaining the integrity of your machine's fluid system
- Direct-Fit Replacement — matches the original routing path, end fittings, and hose diameter for a clean installation on compatible BC-series refuse and landfill compactors
- Broad BC-Series Coverage — fits BC 972 RB, BC 1172 RB, BC 972 RB-2, and BC 1172 RB-2 refuse and landfill compactors, covering both standard and second-generation variants
- Fluid System Reliability — a correctly seated hose prevents leaks, maintains line pressure, and keeps hydraulic or fluid circuits operating within spec during heavy compaction cycles
- Verified Part Number Fit — ordering by Bomag part number 05554246 eliminates guesswork and reduces the risk of sourcing an incompatible hose for your compactor
A hose in a heavy compactor routes pressurized fluid — hydraulic oil, coolant, or another operating fluid — between system components such as pumps, cylinders, and coolers. On large refuse and landfill compactors like the BC 972 RB and BC 1172 RB, these lines operate under sustained pressure and exposure to heat, debris, and vibration. When a hose degrades, cracks, or fails at a fitting, it can cause fluid loss, pressure drops, and system shutdowns that halt compaction operations entirely. Replacing a worn hose promptly with the correct OEM part restores proper flow and pressure, protecting downstream components from damage caused by fluid starvation or contamination.
