The Bomag 05742973 Air Filter Element is a genuine OEM component designed for Bomag BW-series tandem rollers and single drum rollers. Sourced directly from Bomag, this air filter element meets the exact specifications required to maintain proper air intake across the BW 100 AD-5, BW 100 AC-5, BW 120 AD-5, BW 120 AC-5, BW 124 DH-5, BW 124 PDH-5, BW 135 AD-5, BW 138 AD-5, and BW 138 AC-5. As a genuine OEM part, it carries the same engineering tolerances and filtration rating as the original, ensuring your machine performs the way it left the factory floor.
Key Features
- OEM Filtration Rating — engineered to the same micron-level filtration specification as the original element, keeping contaminants out of the engine air intake
- Direct Drop-In Fit — seats and seals exactly like the original element, eliminating gaps or bypass paths that compromise filtration
- Broad Tandem and Single Drum Coverage — confirmed fitment across BW 100, BW 120, BW 124, BW 135, and BW 138 series rollers, including AD-5, AC-5, DH-5, and PDH-5 variants
- Engine Protection — a clean, properly sealing air filter element prevents abrasive dust and debris from reaching engine cylinders, preserving compression and engine life on high-vibration compaction equipment
- Genuine Bomag OEM Part — supplied under part number 05742973 with full Bomag OEM traceability, so you order with confidence
The air filter element is a critical engine protection component that captures airborne dust, silica, and debris before they can enter the combustion chamber. On compaction equipment like tandem and single drum rollers, which operate in dusty, high-vibration environments, the air filter works under constant demand and degrades faster than in lighter-duty applications. A clogged or improperly seated element restricts airflow, causing the engine to run rich, lose power, and overheat, while a damaged element allows fine abrasive particles to bypass filtration entirely — accelerating cylinder and valve wear. Replacing this element on schedule with a correct-specification part is one of the most effective ways to protect the engine investment in your Bomag roller.
