The Bomag 09231600 Spring Ring is a genuine OEM component designed for BC 972 RB and BC 1172 RB series refuse and landfill compactors. Sourced directly from Bomag, this spring ring is engineered to exact OEM specifications, ensuring a correct, like-for-like replacement every time. This part fits the full BC 972 RB and BC 1172 RB model range — including the RB-2, RB-3, and RB-4 generation variants — making it the right choice across multiple production years of these heavy-duty refuse compactors.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Retention Integrity — manufactured to Bomag's exact spring tension and dimensional tolerances, ensuring the spring ring seats and retains components as originally designed
- Direct OEM Replacement — replaces the original spring ring with no rework or adaptation, dropping into the same position with the correct engagement profile
- Broad Generation Coverage — fits BC 972 RB, BC 972 RB-2, BC 972 RB-3, BC 972 RB-4, BC 1172 RB, BC 1172 RB-2, BC 1172 RB-3, and BC 1172 RB-4 refuse and landfill compactors
- Retention and Operational Stability — a properly functioning spring ring holds assemblies securely under the high shock and vibration loads these machines generate during landfill compaction cycles; a worn or missing ring can allow components to shift or disengage
- Verified Part Number Traceability — order with confidence using Bomag part number 09231600, cross-referenced directly against the Bomag OEM catalog for these compactor families
A spring ring is a retaining fastener used to secure components in a bore or on a shaft, preventing axial movement under load and vibration. On heavy refuse and landfill compactors like the BC 972 RB and BC 1172 RB, where machines operate across rough, shifting terrain under continuous stress, a correctly installed spring ring is critical to keeping assemblies properly located. When a spring ring wears, deforms, or fails, the components it retains can shift out of position — leading to accelerated wear, assembly looseness, or mechanical failure of the surrounding system.
