- Structural Integrity Under Load — an insertion piece that is worn, cracked, or out of spec allows movement and stress concentration that can accelerate damage to surrounding components

An insertion piece is a precision-fit interface component that locates or connects two assemblies, transmitting load and maintaining alignment between mating parts. On heavy compactors like the BC 572 RB-2, BC 473 RB-3, and BC 473 EB-3, this component must hold its shape and position under continuous vibration and compaction stress. When an insertion piece wears or fails, surrounding components lose proper support, leading to accelerated wear, misalignment, and potential structural damage that is far more costly to repair.
