The Bomag 05713912 V-Belt is a genuine OEM replacement designed for BC 972 RB, BC 1172 RB, BC 972 RB-2, and BC 1172 RB-2 refuse and landfill compactors. Sourced directly from Bomag, this V-Belt matches the original specification for correct tension, length, and cross-section — eliminating the guesswork of fitment. If your machine is showing signs of belt slippage, squealing, or visible wear, replacing this component with part number 05713912 restores proper drive performance and protects the systems it serves.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — manufactured to Bomag's original material and dimensional spec, ensuring the correct flex, grip, and heat resistance for heavy-cycle compactor operation
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — matched to the original belt routing and pulley geometry on covered BC-series refuse compactors, so installation follows the standard service procedure without modification
- Confirmed Fitment — fits BC 972 RB, BC 1172 RB, BC 972 RB-2, and BC 1172 RB-2 refuse and landfill compactors
- Drive System Integrity — a correctly tensioned V-Belt keeps auxiliary drive systems running at full efficiency; a worn or stretched belt causes slippage, overheating, and accelerated wear on driven components
- Built for Demanding Cycles — refuse and landfill compactors operate in punishing conditions; this belt is built to handle the sustained load and temperature demands of that environment
A V-Belt transmits rotational power from the engine or motor to driven accessories and systems by gripping between two angled pulley faces. On a refuse and landfill compactor like the BC 972 RB or BC 1172 RB, this belt plays a critical role in keeping auxiliary drive systems — such as hydraulic pumps or cooling fans — operating at the correct speed and torque. When a V-Belt stretches, cracks, or loses its profile, drive slip increases, output drops, and the added heat generated can damage pulleys and connected components. Replacing a worn belt promptly with an OEM-spec part like the part keeps the drivetrain tight and the machine working at full capacity.
