The Bomag 05851523 Spherical Plain Bearing is a genuine OEM component designed for Bomag BC-series refuse/landfill compactors and soil compactors, including the BC 472 RB, BC 472 RS, BC 462 EB, BC 462 RB, BC 473 RB-4, BC 473 RS-4, BC 473 EB-4, BC 473 RB-3, and BC 473 EB-3. Sourced directly from Bomag, this spherical plain bearing meets the exact dimensional and load tolerances specified for these machines. Confirm your model against part number 05851523 to ensure a correct, compatible installation.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Load Tolerance — manufactured to Bomag's exact radial and angular load specifications for this bearing position, ensuring consistent articulation and pivot performance under heavy compaction stress
- Direct-Fit Replacement — matches the original bore diameter, outer race dimensions, and housing interface so this spherical plain bearing seats correctly without machining or shimming
- Broad BC-Series Coverage — fits BC 472 RB, BC 472 RS, BC 462 EB, BC 462 RB, BC 473 RB-4, BC 473 RS-4, BC 473 EB-4, BC 473 RB-3, and BC 473 EB-3 compactors across both the refuse/landfill and soil compactor lines
- Sustained Articulation Integrity — a worn spherical plain bearing allows slop in pivot joints, leading to uneven compaction force and accelerated wear on surrounding linkage components; this genuine replacement restores tight, controlled movement
- Genuine Bomag Part — supplied as an authentic OEM component under part number 05851523, backed by Bomag's part verification and quality assurance
A spherical plain bearing is a pivot-type sliding bearing that allows rotational movement in multiple directions while carrying both radial and axial loads. In heavy compactors like the BC-series, these bearings are typically found in steering linkages, articulation joints, and working attachment pivot points — locations that endure continuous shock loading and contamination exposure. When a spherical plain bearing wears, the joint it supports develops excessive play, which translates into imprecise steering response, uneven weight transfer, and increased stress on adjacent pins and bushings. Replacing a failed bearing promptly with the correct OEM part restores the tight tolerances the machine was engineered to operate within.
