The Bomag 05933046 Star Knob is a genuine OEM component designed for BC 473 refuse/landfill compactors and BC 473 soil compactors. As a direct OEM replacement, this star knob matches the original part exactly, ensuring a correct fit on the 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, part number 05933046 gives you confidence that the component you're installing meets the same standard as the part that left the factory floor.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — manufactured to Bomag's original material and dimensional standards, so the knob maintains the correct grip geometry and engagement feel for operator use on BC 473 compactors
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — designed to install in the original mounting position without alteration, matching the thread, profile, and torque characteristics of the part it replaces
- Broad BC 473 Coverage — fits the BC 473 RB-4 and BC 473 RS-4 refuse/landfill compactors, along with the BC 473 EB-4 and BC 473 EB-3 soil compactors and the BC 473 RB-3
- Operator Control Integrity — a correctly fitted star knob ensures secure, repeatable adjustment and setting retention; a worn or missing knob can compromise operator adjustments and slow productive operation
A star knob is a hand-operated fastener or adjustment control that allows the operator to tighten, loosen, or set a component position without tools, using its multi-point profile for a firm manual grip. On heavy compactors like the BC 473 series, star knobs are typically used to secure panels, guards, or adjustable assemblies that require routine access or repositioning during operation and servicing. When a star knob becomes cracked, stripped, or missing, secure adjustment is lost, which can allow covers or components to shift during machine operation and slow routine service tasks.
