The Bomag 72470174 Spiral Cable is a genuine OEM component designed for the BMP 8500 trench compactor. Sourced directly from Bomag, this spiral cable matches the original specification exactly, ensuring a correct, trouble-free installation without adaptation. As a genuine OEM part, it carries the same build quality and material standards as the cable fitted at the factory, giving operators confidence that the machine's control and power circuits will perform as intended. If your BMP 8500 is showing wiring faults, intermittent signal loss, or visible cable damage, replacing it with part number 72470174 restores full electrical function to the machine.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Electrical Integrity — manufactured to Bomag's exact conductor gauge, insulation grade, and connector specification, so signal transmission and current capacity match the original cable precisely
- Direct-Fit Replacement — connectors and routing length are identical to the factory-installed cable, allowing a straightforward swap on the BMP 8500 with no splicing or modification
- Confirmed BMP 8500 Fitment — verified for the BMP 8500 trench compactor, so you can order with confidence knowing this is the correct part for your machine
- Coiled Design Handles Articulation — the spiral construction flexes and extends through the full range of the machine's articulated movement without stressing the conductor or causing premature wear
- Protects Remote-Control Operation — a damaged or failing spiral cable can cause loss of remote-control signal on the BMP 8500, bringing compaction work to a halt; replacing it promptly keeps the machine fully operational and safe to run
A spiral cable — sometimes called a coiled cable or curly cord — carries electrical signals and power between two points on a machine that move relative to each other, such as the front and rear frames of an articulated unit. The coiled construction allows the cable to extend and retract as the machine steers through its full articulation range without stretching or pinching the internal conductors. On the BMP 8500 trench compactor, this cable is critical to maintaining uninterrupted communication between the remote-control receiver and the machine's operating systems. When the cable is damaged, corroded, or worn, operators may experience intermittent control response or complete loss of remote function, making prompt replacement essential for both productivity and safe operation.
