The Bomag 05904539 Oil Cooler is a genuine OEM component designed for BC 972 RB-4 and BC 1172 RB-4 refuse and landfill compactors. Sourced directly from Bomag, this oil cooler matches the original unit in every respect, ensuring a correct, confidence-inspiring installation. This part is confirmed compatible with both the BC 972 RB-4 and BC 1172 RB-4 — so you can order knowing it will drop right into your machine.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Thermal Performance — manufactured to Bomag's original heat-dissipation specifications, this oil cooler maintains the precise operating temperature range your compactor's hydraulic and drivetrain systems depend on
- Direct-Fit Replacement — matches the original mounting points, port sizes, and line connections of the BC 972 RB-4 and BC 1172 RB-4, allowing a straightforward swap with no cutting or adapting
- Confirmed Fitment — verified for BC 972 RB-4 and BC 1172 RB-4 refuse and landfill compactors, covering both models in this heavy-duty compactor series
- Protects Critical Drivetrain Components — a properly functioning oil cooler keeps hydraulic fluid and lubricants within their safe temperature range, preventing accelerated wear on pumps, motors, and bearings during demanding landfill compaction cycles
- Stops Overheating Before It Starts — a degraded or blocked oil cooler allows fluid temperatures to spike, leading to fluid breakdown, seal failures, and potential drivetrain damage; replacing it promptly keeps the machine operating at full capacity
The oil cooler is responsible for drawing excess heat out of the hydraulic fluid and engine oil as they circulate through the machine. On heavy refuse and landfill compactors like the BC 972 RB-4 and BC 1172 RB-4, which operate under sustained high loads in demanding environments, maintaining proper fluid temperature is essential to protecting pumps, valves, and other hydraulic components. When an oil cooler becomes blocked, corroded, or develops a leak, fluid temperatures rise quickly — causing accelerated fluid degradation, seal failures, and costly downstream damage to the hydraulic system.
