The Bomag 05660163 Centrifugal Weight is a genuine OEM component designed for Bomag BT and BVT series tampers. Sourced directly from Bomag, this centrifugal weight meets the exact tolerances required to deliver consistent impact frequency and compaction force. This part fits the BT 50, BT 60, BT 60/4, BT 60 G, BT 65, BT 65/4, BT 65 G, and BVT 65 tampers, making it the correct replacement across a broad range of Bomag's tamper lineup. When the original component wears or fails, installing a genuine OEM replacement restores the machine to its designed operating performance without guesswork.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Impact Mass Accuracy — manufactured to Bomag's exact weight and balance specifications, ensuring the tamper generates its rated centrifugal force with every stroke
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — engineered to the original dimensions for straightforward installation into the exciter assembly of compatible Bomag tampers
- Broad Tamper Coverage — fits the BT 50, BT 60, BT 60/4, BT 60 G, BT 65, BT 65/4, BT 65 G, and BVT 65 tampers, covering multiple generations of Bomag's tamper range
- Sustained Compaction Output — a correctly weighted centrifugal weight maintains the consistent blow energy that trench and backfill compaction demands; a worn or imbalanced unit reduces compaction depth and can accelerate wear on surrounding exciter components
- Genuine Part Assurance — supplied under Bomag part number 05660163, confirming you are receiving the correct OEM component rather than a close-but-not-exact substitute
The centrifugal weight is a core element of a tamper's exciter mechanism. As the engine drives the exciter shaft, the centrifugal weight rotates and generates the oscillating impact force that is transferred through the tamper foot into the ground. The mass and balance of this weight directly determine blow frequency and compaction energy — if the weight is worn, cracked, or out of specification, the tamper loses strike force, compacts unevenly, and places additional stress on the crankshaft and exciter bearings. Replacing a failed centrifugal weight with a genuine Bomag part is the most direct way to bring a tamper back to its rated performance.
