The Bomag 05718996 Turbocharger is a genuine OEM component designed for the BC 972 RB refuse/landfill compactor. Sourced directly from Bomag, this turbocharger meets the exact specifications of the original unit installed at the factory, ensuring a correct, hassle-free installation. If your BC 972 RB is showing signs of turbocharger wear — reduced power, excessive exhaust smoke, or sluggish throttle response — this is the confirmed replacement part for that machine.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Boost Performance — matched to the exact pressure ratios and flow characteristics specified for the BC 972 RB engine, so the machine delivers full rated power output from day one
- Direct OEM Replacement — engineered to the same mounting dimensions, inlet/outlet geometry, and turbo shaft tolerances as the original, installing directly in place of the worn unit
- Confirmed Fitment — verified for the BC 972 RB refuse/landfill compactor under part number 05718996
- Protects Engine Longevity — a correctly operating turbocharger maintains proper air-fuel ratios and exhaust scavenging, guarding the engine against the heat stress and carbon buildup caused by a failing unit
- Fuel System Compliance — restores the intake boost pressure the engine management system expects, keeping combustion within safe operating parameters and preventing over-fueling
A turbocharger uses exhaust gas energy to drive a compressor that forces more air into the engine's combustion chambers, allowing the engine to burn more fuel and produce significantly more power than it could naturally aspirate. On a high-demand machine like the BC 972 RB refuse/landfill compactor, the turbocharger works continuously under heavy thermal and mechanical stress, and a worn or failed unit will cause a noticeable drop in pushing force, increased fuel consumption, and elevated exhaust temperatures. Replacing a degraded turbocharger promptly with the correct OEM part restores full engine output and protects downstream components from the damage that under-boost conditions can cause.
