The Bomag 05523001 Shim is a genuine OEM replacement designed for the BC 601 RB refuse/landfill compactor. Sourced directly from Bomag, this shim matches the original factory component in material grade, thickness, and form, ensuring a correct fit in the assembly it supports. Contractors and fleet technicians running BC 601 RB machines can order with confidence knowing this is the same component installed at the point of manufacture.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Material Match — precision-manufactured to the exact thickness and material specification of the original shim, eliminating the tolerance stack-up that undersized or oversized shims can introduce
- Drop-In Replacement — conforms to the original dimensional profile, fitting directly into the same position as the factory component without rework or machining
- Verified Fitment for the BC 601 RB — confirmed compatible with the BC 601 RB refuse/landfill compactor; part number 05523001 is cross-referenced directly to this machine
- Maintains Critical Clearances — correct shim thickness keeps mating components properly aligned and preloaded, protecting adjacent parts from accelerated wear caused by improper spacing
- OEM Sourced for Long-Term Durability — manufactured to Bomag's own standards, this shim holds its dimension under the compressive loads typical of heavy refuse compaction duty cycles
A shim is a thin, precisely dimensioned spacer used to set and maintain the correct gap, alignment, or preload between two mating components. In heavy compaction equipment like the BC 601 RB, shims are critical wherever tight tolerances must be held — such as in drive assemblies, pivot points, or wheel and drum mounting arrangements. When a shim wears, deforms, or is installed at the wrong thickness, the resulting misalignment puts abnormal stress on surrounding components, leading to premature wear or mechanical failure in those adjacent parts.
