The Bomag 05272165 Spherical Plain Bearing is a genuine OEM component designed for Bomag BC-series refuse/landfill compactors and soil compactors, spanning models from the BC 462 RB through the BC 1172 RB-4. As a direct factory replacement, this bearing delivers the dimensional accuracy and load-rating consistency that heavy compactor articulation and linkage systems demand. Compatible across a wide range of BC RB, RS, and EB variants, this spherical plain bearing is the correct OEM choice for restoring pivot and joint connections to specification.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — manufactured to Bomag's own bearing geometry, load tolerance, and surface-hardness specifications, ensuring the angular misalignment capacity that compactor pivot joints require under continuous high-load cycling
- Drop-In Replacement — matches the housing bore, inner diameter, and spherical seat dimensions of the original, allowing direct installation without reworking mounting bores or adjacent hardware
- Broad BC-Series Coverage — fits a wide range of Bomag refuse/landfill compactors including the BC 462 RB, BC 601 RS, BC 672 RB, BC 772 RB, BC 972 RB, BC 1172 RB-4, and related generation variants, as well as BC-series soil compactors including the BC 462 EB, BC 672 EB-2, BC 772 EB-2, and BC 772 EB-4
- Articulation and Linkage Integrity — a worn or seized spherical plain bearing introduces play into steering, blade, or linkage pivot points, accelerating wear on surrounding components and degrading control precision; replacing it restores smooth, controlled articulation
- Verified Part Number Fit — ordering by part number 05272165 confirms you are receiving the correct bearing for the application, eliminating the risk of substituting a dimensionally similar but incompatible aftermarket unit
A spherical plain bearing is a maintenance and pivot-joint component that accommodates angular misalignment between connected parts while transferring radial and axial loads. On heavy compactors like the BC series, these bearings are commonly found in articulation joints, blade linkages, and suspension pivot points — areas subject to constant shock loading, contamination, and oscillation. When a spherical plain bearing wears, the resulting looseness causes uneven load transfer, accelerated wear on pins and housings, and loss of steering or implement response, making timely replacement essential for safe and effective machine operation.
