The Bomag 05747246 Return Spring is a genuine OEM component designed for Bomag BP-series vibratory plates and BPR-series reversible vibratory plates. Sourced directly from Bomag, this return spring meets the exact specifications of the original part it replaces, ensuring consistent mechanical response and correct tension across every operating cycle. This spring is confirmed to fit a wide range of Bomag plate compactors, including the BP 20/48, BP 25/50, BPR 25/40, BPR 35/60, BPR 35/42, BVP 18/45, BR 95, and many additional BP and BPR models. When a return spring wears or breaks, throttle or control linkage response becomes sluggish or fails entirely — replacing it with the correct OEM part restores proper machine feel and control precision.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Spring Tension — manufactured to the exact coil rate and free-length specification Bomag engineers for this spring position, so control linkage snaps back with the correct force every time
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — matches the original hook geometry and wire diameter for tool-free installation into the existing mounting points
- Broad Plate Compactor Coverage — fits BP-series forward vibratory plates and BPR/BVP-series reversible vibratory plates, including the BP 15/36-2, BP 20/48, BP 23/60, BPR 25/32, BPR 30/38, BPR 35/60 H, BR90, BR 95, and the full range listed under part number 05747246
- Restored Control Response — a functioning return spring keeps throttle or engagement linkage positively reset between operator inputs, maintaining predictable compaction passes and consistent machine behavior
- Corrosion-Resistant Construction — spring steel material resists the dust, moisture, and vibration environment typical of plate compactor jobsite use, extending service life between replacements
A return spring in a vibratory plate compactor is responsible for pulling a lever, linkage, or control mechanism back to its neutral or rest position after the operator releases it. Without adequate spring tension, the linkage may stick, drag, or fail to disengage cleanly, leading to erratic throttle behavior or loss of directional control on reversible models. Replacing a fatigued or broken return spring is a straightforward service item that restores the crisp, predictable control response operators depend on for accurate compaction work.
