The Bomag 87240398 Assembled Basic Weight is a genuine OEM component designed for BW 184 AD and BW 184 AD-2 tandem rollers. Sourced directly from Bomag, this part meets the original engineering specifications for the BW 184 AD series, ensuring consistent performance and proper machine balance. This assembled unit arrives ready to install, built to match the exact dimensions and weight tolerances of the original component on your roller.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Mass Specification — manufactured to Bomag's original weight and dimensional tolerances, ensuring the assembled unit performs exactly as the machine was engineered to operate
- Complete Assembled Unit — supplied as a fully assembled weight, eliminating the need to source and assemble individual components before installation
- Direct Fitment for BW 184 AD Series — confirmed compatibility with BW 184 AD and BW 184 AD-2 tandem rollers, dropping into the original mounting position without modification
- Preserves Drum Balance and Compaction Output — correct ballast weight directly affects drum loading and compaction force; a missing or incorrect weight compromises asphalt compaction results across the full drum width
- Verified Bomag Part Number — ordering by part number 87240398 confirms you receive the correct assembly for your specific machine configuration, avoiding costly fitment errors
The basic weight on a BOMAG tandem roller is a ballast assembly used to adjust or establish the static drum load on the machine. Correct drum weight directly influences the compaction pressure applied to the asphalt surface, which determines mat density and finish quality. When this component is damaged, missing, or replaced with an incorrectly sized unit, the roller's compaction performance and drum loading will fall outside the designed operating range, leading to inconsistent or substandard results.
