The Bomag 05585873 Differential Housing is a genuine OEM component designed for the BW 172 D-2 single drum roller. Sourced directly from Bomag, this housing meets the exact engineering tolerances required to maintain proper drivetrain alignment and function. As an OEM part, it carries the same specifications as the original unit, ensuring a direct, like-for-like replacement on the BW 172 D-2.
Key Features
- OEM-Matched Housing Geometry — Cast and machined to the exact tolerances specified for the BW 172 D-2 drivetrain, ensuring correct gear engagement and bearing seating within the differential assembly.
- Direct Replacement Fit — Engineered to mount and align with the existing differential components on the BW 172 D-2 single drum roller without modification or custom fitting.
- Confirmed Fitment — Verified genuine OEM part for the Bomag BW 172 D-2 single drum roller; use part number 05585873 to confirm compatibility when ordering.
- Drivetrain Protection — A sound housing keeps differential gears and bearings properly contained and lubricated; a cracked or damaged housing leads to lubricant loss, accelerated gear wear, and potential drivetrain failure.
- Genuine Bomag Quality — Manufactured to Bomag's production standards, delivering the same service life and structural integrity as the original part it replaces.
The differential housing is the structural enclosure that surrounds and supports the differential gear set in the roller's drivetrain. It holds the gears, bearings, and lubricant in precise alignment, allowing torque to be distributed correctly to the drum or drive wheels. When the housing becomes cracked, warped, or damaged, it can no longer retain gear oil or maintain proper component alignment — leading to rapid internal wear, overheating, and eventual drivetrain failure that takes the machine out of service.
