Key Features
- Genuine OEM Precision — manufactured to exact Bomag specifications, this return socket delivers the dimensional accuracy and material grade that hydraulic and fluid return circuits demand
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — engineered to match the original socket configuration, this part connects to existing lines and fittings without reworking the surrounding system

- Leak-Free System Integrity — a correctly seated return socket maintains proper return-line flow and pressure, preventing fluid loss that can lead to system overheating or component damage
- Verified Part Number — ordering by Bomag part number 05711188 confirms you receive the correct socket for your specific machine, eliminating costly mis-fit returns
A return socket serves as a threaded or press-fit connection point within a machine's fluid return circuit, channeling hydraulic or cooling fluid back to the reservoir or tank after it has completed its working cycle. Maintaining a sound return socket is critical — a cracked, stripped, or improperly seated socket will leak fluid, disrupt return-line back pressure, and can starve downstream components of adequate flow. On Bomag tandem and single drum rollers, where hydraulic systems power drum drive, vibration, and steering functions, a failed return socket can quickly cascade into broader drivetrain or vibration-system issues if left unaddressed.
