The Bomag 05985708 Seal Kit is a genuine OEM component designed for BC-series refuse/landfill compactors and soil compactors, including the BC 472 RB, BC 472 RS, BC 462 RB, BC 462 EB, BC 972 RB-2, BC 972 RB-3, BC 972 RB-4, BC 1172 RB-2, BC 1172 RB-3, BC 1172 RB-4, BC 473 RB-3, BC 473 RB-4, BC 473 RS-4, BC 473 EB-3, and BC 473 EB-4. Sourced directly from Bomag, this seal kit matches the original specifications for a drop-in replacement with no guesswork on fitment. Keeping seals in sound condition is critical on heavy compactor equipment operating under sustained load and exposure to debris, and this genuine OEM kit ensures every seal in the set meets Bomag's original material and dimensional requirements.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Seal Material — each seal in this kit is manufactured to Bomag's original compound and compression specifications, ensuring proper sealing pressure and resistance to heat, hydraulic fluid, and operating stress on heavy compactor equipment.
- Complete Kit Format — all required seals are bundled together in a single part number 05985708, so technicians can complete the service in one pass without sourcing individual components separately.
- Broad BC-Series Coverage — fits Bomag BC 462, BC 472, BC 473, BC 972, and BC 1172 model variants across both refuse/landfill compactor and soil compactor configurations.
- Prevents Fluid Loss and Contamination — worn or damaged seals allow hydraulic fluid to bypass or leak, leading to pressure loss, component wear, and potential system failure; replacing with this kit restores correct fluid containment.
- Direct OEM Replacement — this kit installs directly in place of the original seals with no adaptation, using the same geometry and tolerances as the parts fitted at the factory.
A seal kit consolidates the sealing elements used within a hydraulic or mechanical assembly — typically including O-rings, lip seals, and gaskets — that prevent fluid leakage and keep contaminants out of precision components. On BC-series compactors, which operate under high hydraulic pressure and in demanding landfill or soil compaction environments, seal integrity is essential to maintaining system pressure and protecting internal components from premature wear. When seals degrade, fluid loss accelerates, performance drops, and unaddressed leaks can cause cascading damage to pumps, cylinders, and drive components.
