The Bomag 54220222 Drive Shaft is a genuine OEM component designed for Bomag BT and BVT series tampers, including the BT 50, BT 60, BT 60 G, BT 60 e, BT 65, BT 65 G, and BVT 65. Sourced directly from Bomag, this drive shaft matches the original specification exactly, ensuring a direct, trouble-free installation. If your tamper is experiencing loss of power transfer or irregular ramming action, replacing the drive shaft with part number 54220222 restores proper mechanical operation and gets your machine back to work.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Power Transfer Integrity — manufactured to Bomag's original tolerances for precise torque transmission through the tamper's drive train, eliminating the slop or misalignment that worn components introduce
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — engineered to the same dimensions and connection points as the original, so this drive shaft installs into the tamper's drive assembly without modification
- Broad BT and BVT Tamper Coverage — fits the BT 50, BT 60, BT 60 G, BT 60 e, BT 65, BT 65 G, and BVT 65, covering both standard and specialty variants across the Bomag tamper range
- Restored Ramming Performance — a fully functional drive shaft ensures consistent, rhythmic compaction strokes; a worn or damaged shaft causes erratic impact frequency, uneven compaction, and accelerated wear on connected components
The drive shaft is a core mechanical link in a tamper's drivetrain, transferring rotational power from the engine to the exciter mechanism that generates the machine's compaction strokes. When this shaft is in good condition, the tamper delivers consistent, controlled impact energy into the ground — critical for achieving proper compaction density in trenches and backfill applications. A worn, cracked, or failed drive shaft disrupts that power transfer, resulting in weak or irregular ramming action, and if left unaddressed, can cause secondary damage to the engine output and exciter assembly.
