The Bomag 05272163 Spherical Plain Bearing is a genuine OEM component designed for Bomag BC-series refuse/landfill compactors, BC-series soil compactors, MPH-series recyclers/stabilizers, and RS-series recyclers/stabilizers. Sourced directly from Bomag, this bearing delivers the exact dimensional and load-rating specifications required for correct operation across a wide range of heavy compaction and stabilization equipment. Confirmed fitment includes models such as the BC 601 RB, BC 772 RB-4, BC 473 RS-4, MPH 122, MPH 600, RS 500, RS 460, RS 650, and RS460 STAGE V, among others.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Load Rating — manufactured to Bomag's original radial and angular load specifications, ensuring the bearing handles the high-stress articulation demands typical of heavy compactors and stabilizers
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — matches the original bore, outer diameter, and width of the factory-installed bearing, allowing straightforward installation without machining or shimming
- Broad Fitment Coverage — fits BC-series refuse/landfill compactors (including BC 472 RB through BC 772 RS-4), BC-series soil compactors (BC 462 EB, BC 473 EB-4, BC 772 EB-4), and MPH/RS-series recyclers/stabilizers including the MPH 121, MPH 122-2, MPH 125, MPH 600, RS 500, RS 460, RS 650, and RS460 STAGE V
- Articulation Joint Integrity — a worn or failed spherical plain bearing allows excessive play in pivot and articulation joints, leading to imprecise steering response and accelerated wear on surrounding linkage components; this part restores full joint control
- Verified Part Number Traceability — ordering by Bomag part number 05272163 confirms you receive the correct bearing grade and geometry for your machine, not a mismatched substitute
A spherical plain bearing is a pivot-style bearing designed to accommodate angular misalignment between two connected components — typically used at articulation joints, steering linkages, and pivot pins on heavy equipment. Unlike a standard ball or roller bearing, its inner ring can tilt relative to the outer ring, allowing smooth motion even when the joined parts are not perfectly aligned. On large compactors and recyclers/stabilizers, these bearings carry substantial radial loads while continuously flexing through steering and frame-articulation cycles; when one wears out, joint play increases, steering becomes unpredictable, and surrounding hardware is put under abnormal stress that accelerates further damage.
