The Bomag BMP8500 Hub Bearing (OEM 72310170) is a genuine replacement bearing designed for use on the Bomag BMP8500 multipurpose trench compactor. It forms a vital part of the drive hub assembly, supporting the rotating hub while allowing smooth wheel movement and ensuring efficient transmission of drive power during machine operation.
Manufactured to OEM specifications, the hub bearing is engineered from high-quality bearing steel to withstand heavy radial and axial loads, shock, vibration, and the demanding conditions encountered in trench compaction and construction applications. Its precision construction helps minimise friction, maintain accurate hub alignment, and maximise the service life of the drive assembly.

Always verify compatibility using the machine model and serial number before ordering, as hub components may vary between production revisions.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Always confirm the correct OEM part number, machine model, serial number, and hub assembly specification before ordering, as hub bearings are manufactured to precise dimensions and load ratings. Installing the correct bearing is essential to maintain smooth operation, accurate hub alignment, and reliable drive performance.
Common signs of a worn hub bearing include excessive play, rumbling or grinding noises, vibration during operation, overheating, or uneven wear within the drive hub assembly. When replacing the hub bearing, it is recommended to inspect the hub, shaft, seals, retaining components, and surrounding mounting surfaces for signs of wear or damage. Replacing worn associated components at the same time will help maximise the service life and reliability of the complete drive hub assembly.
