The Bomag 05802604 Travel Motor is a genuine OEM component designed for BC-series refuse/landfill compactors and soil compactors, including the BC 472 RB, BC 472 RS, BC 462 EB, BC 462 RB, and BC 473 RB-4. Sourced directly from Bomag, this travel motor delivers an exact match to the original unit — no guesswork on fitment. It is the correct replacement for operators and fleet managers who need to restore full propulsion capability to their compactors with confidence in part authenticity and long-term durability.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Hydraulic Precision — manufactured to Bomag's original hydraulic specifications, ensuring correct displacement, pressure rating, and rotational output for heavy-duty compactor propulsion
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — matches the original mounting configuration and porting layout, allowing straightforward installation without custom adapters or modifications
- Broad BC-Series Coverage — fits the BC 472 RB, BC 472 RS, BC 462 EB, BC 462 RB, and BC 473 RB-4, covering both refuse/landfill compactors and soil compactors in the BC family
- Full Propulsion Performance Restored — a worn or failed travel motor causes loss of drive power and reduced machine mobility; replacing with this OEM unit restores the machine's designed travel speed and tractive effort
- Verified Part Number 05802604 — cross-reference against your Bomag parts manual to confirm fitment before ordering; using the correct part number eliminates the risk of installing a mismatched hydraulic motor
The travel motor is a hydraulic motor that converts pressurized hydraulic fluid from the machine's hydrostatic transmission into the rotational force that drives the compactor's wheels or drum. On large BC-series refuse and soil compactors, the travel motor is a core propulsion component — it determines how the machine moves across the landfill face or compaction site under load. When a travel motor begins to fail, symptoms typically include sluggish or uneven travel, loss of pulling power on grades, and hydraulic fluid bypassing internally, which generates heat and accelerates wear throughout the drive system. Replacing a failing unit promptly with a genuine OEM travel motor protects the broader hydraulic circuit and keeps the machine operating at its rated capacity.
