The Bomag 72040102 Screw Plug is a genuine OEM component designed for Bomag BMP 851, BW 1050 T, BW 850 T, BW 850 TR, and BW 85 T trench compactors. Sourced directly from Bomag, this screw plug matches the exact material, thread specification, and sealing profile of the original part. It installs directly in place of the factory component with no fitment issues, ensuring a proper seal every time. If you are servicing any of the compatible Bomag trench compactors, part number 72040102 is the correct OEM replacement to have on hand.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Sealing Integrity — manufactured to Bomag's exact thread form and material spec, delivering the leak-free seal this plug is designed to maintain under operating pressures
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — threads match the original port dimensions on compatible trench compactors, so installation is straightforward without rework or adaptation
- Broad Trench Compactor Coverage — fits the BMP 851, BW 1050 T, BW 850 T, BW 850 TR, and BW 85 T, covering multiple Bomag trench compactor models with a single part
- Protects Critical Fluid Systems — a correctly seated screw plug prevents fluid loss and contamination ingress, keeping hydraulic or lubrication circuits operating at the correct pressure and cleanliness level
- Fluid Containment Assurance — a failed or missing plug can lead to immediate fluid leakage, pressure loss, and potential damage to downstream components; replacing it promptly with the correct OEM part protects the wider system
A screw plug is a threaded closure used to seal access ports, drain points, or unused hydraulic and lubrication passages within a machine's fluid systems. It maintains internal pressure, prevents fluid from escaping, and keeps contaminants from entering sensitive circuits. When a screw plug is damaged, cross-threaded, or missing, the machine can suffer fluid leaks, loss of hydraulic pressure, or lubricant contamination — all of which can escalate quickly into more serious mechanical failures if left unaddressed.
