The Bomag 05985609 Seal Kit is a genuine OEM component designed for BC 972 RB-2 and BC 1172 RB-2 refuse/landfill compactors. Sourced directly from Bomag, this seal kit delivers the exact material grades, dimensions, and compression tolerances specified for these machines. It is the correct, catalog-verified replacement for BC 972 RB-2 and BC 1172 RB-2 compactors operating in demanding landfill and refuse environments where hydraulic integrity is critical to continuous operation.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Sealing Materials — manufactured to Bomag's exact compound and durometer specifications, ensuring the seals resist the hydraulic pressures, temperatures, and fluid types present in these heavy-duty compactors
- Direct-Replacement Assembly — every seal, o-ring, and backing ring in this kit is sized to match the original hardware, allowing technicians to reinstall without modification or improvisation
- Confirmed Fitment — verified for BC 972 RB-2 and BC 1172 RB-2 refuse/landfill compactors; using part number 05985609 ensures you are ordering the correct kit for these specific models
- Hydraulic System Integrity — worn or damaged seals allow hydraulic fluid to bypass or leak, causing pressure loss and erratic cylinder performance; a fresh seal kit restores full system pressure and consistent actuator response
- Complete Kit Convenience — all required sealing elements are packaged together, so technicians have everything needed to complete the service in a single repair event without hunting for individual components
A seal kit bundles all the sealing elements — o-rings, lip seals, backup rings, and related components — needed to rebuild a hydraulic cylinder, pump, motor, or valve body back to a leak-free condition. In a refuse and landfill compactor like the BC 972 RB-2 and BC 1172 RB-2, hydraulic systems power the compaction wheel drives, articulation, and auxiliary functions that keep the machine productive under constant heavy-duty cycling. When seals degrade from heat, pressure cycling, or contamination, fluid loss and pressure drop follow, leading to sluggish or uncontrolled movement. Replacing the seals promptly with a correct-specification kit like this one restores hydraulic efficiency and prevents further damage to cylinder bores and valve components.
