The Bomag 05742181 Glow Plug is a genuine OEM component designed for Bomag BF 300-series pavers, BW-series tandem rollers, BW-series single drum rollers, and BW 11 RH-5 pneumatic tyred rollers. As a direct OEM replacement, this glow plug is sourced to the same specification as the part installed at the factory, ensuring a correct electrical and mechanical fit in the engine's pre-combustion system. Compatible models include the BF 300 P, BF 300 C, BW 141 AD-5, BW 151 AD-5, BW 154 AD-5, BW 145 D-5, BW 177 D-5, and the full range of BW 154 AP-4 and BW 154 ACP-4 tandem roller variants, among others. Using part number 05742181 confirms you are ordering the correct OEM-specified glow plug for these machines.
Key Features
- OEM Heating Element Specification — matched to the exact resistance and heat-up curve required by the diesel engine fitted to these Bomag machines, so the combustion chamber reaches operating temperature at the correct rate
- Drop-In Engine Fit — threaded to the OEM specification for direct installation into the engine head with no re-tapping or adapter needed
- Broad Bomag Fleet Coverage — fits BF 300-series pavers, BW 141, BW 145, BW 151, BW 154, and BW 177 tandem and single drum rollers, and the BW 11 RH-5 pneumatic tyred roller, covering a wide range of diesel-powered Bomag equipment
- Cold-Start Reliability — a correctly functioning glow plug ensures prompt ignition in cold or low-ambient-temperature conditions, preventing hard starts, excessive cranking, and unburned fuel buildup in the cylinders
- Fuel System and Emissions Compliance — proper pre-heat protects fuel injectors from the stress of cold misfires and helps the engine meet its rated emissions profile from start-up
A glow plug is a heating element threaded into the combustion chamber or pre-chamber of a diesel engine. Because diesel engines rely on compression heat to ignite fuel rather than a spark, a glow plug provides supplemental heat at start-up — especially in cold weather — to raise the air temperature enough for reliable ignition. When a glow plug fails or burns out, the engine may crank without firing, start roughly, produce excessive white or black smoke, or run unevenly until fully warmed. Replacing a worn glow plug with a genuine OEM unit like the Bomag 05742181 restores proper cold-start performance and reduces the strain placed on the starter, battery, and fuel injection system during every start cycle.
