The Bomag 05747983 Cylinder Head Gasket is a genuine OEM component designed for BW 900 AD tandem rollers and BW 900-2 walk-behind rollers. Sourced directly from Bomag, this cylinder head gasket delivers the exact material grade, thickness, and sealing profile specified for these machines. It installs as a direct replacement, restoring proper compression and coolant containment to the engine. Confirmed fitment covers the BW 900 AD and BW 900-2 — verify your model before ordering to ensure part number 05747983 matches your application.
Key Features
- OEM Sealing Integrity — manufactured to Bomag's original material and compression specifications, ensuring correct head-to-block sealing pressure specific to these engines
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — matches the original gasket's bore pattern, thickness, and port alignment for a straightforward installation on covered models
- Confirmed Fitment — designed for the BW 900 AD tandem roller and the BW 900-2 walk-behind roller; reference part number 05747983 when ordering
- Compression and Coolant Retention — a correctly seated cylinder head gasket maintains engine compression and prevents coolant from entering the combustion chamber, protecting the engine from overheating and power loss
- Combustion Safety — a failed or improperly rated head gasket can allow combustion gases to escape or coolant to mix with oil, creating serious engine damage and operational hazards; using the correct OEM gasket mitigates this risk
The cylinder head gasket forms a critical seal between the engine block and the cylinder head, containing combustion pressure and preventing the mixing of engine oil, coolant, and exhaust gases. On compaction equipment like these Bomag rollers, engines operate under sustained load and vibration, placing constant stress on this seal. When the gasket fails, the result is lost compression, white exhaust smoke, coolant loss, or internal engine contamination — any of which will take a machine out of service quickly. Replacing a worn or blown gasket with a genuine Bomag part restores the engine's integrity and avoids the deeper damage that follows from running on a compromised seal.
