Key Features
- OEM-Specified Heating Performance — manufactured to Bomag's exact resistance and tip-temperature specifications, ensuring the combustion chamber reaches ignition temperature within the designed preheat cycle
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — matches the original thread pitch, shank length, and connector type for straightforward installation in the cylinder head without modification
- Broad Tandem Roller Coverage — fits BW 80, BW 90, BW 100, and BW 131 series tandem rollers, including the BW 80 AD-5, BW 90 SC-5, BW 100 ACM-5, and BW 131 AD-3 among others
- Cold-Start Reliability — a properly functioning glow plug allows the diesel engine to fire quickly in low-temperature conditions; a failed or weakened plug causes hard starts, excessive cranking, and incomplete combustion
- Fuel System Compliance — using the correct OEM glow plug protects injectors and combustion components from the stress of prolonged cranking and unburned fuel accumulation
A glow plug is an electrically heated element threaded into each cylinder of a diesel engine. Before the engine cranks, it pre-heats the air in the combustion chamber to the temperature needed for diesel fuel to ignite — a critical function in cool or cold ambient conditions where compression alone may not be sufficient. When a glow plug weakens or fails, the engine becomes difficult to start, runs rough on initial warm-up, and can produce excess white smoke from unburned fuel. Replacing a worn plug with a correctly specified unit like the Bomag 05740248 restores fast, clean starts and reduces strain on the starter motor and battery.
