The Bomag 05748208 Governor Spring is a genuine OEM component designed for Bomag BT 60, BT 60/4, BT 65, BT 65/4, and BVT 65 tampers. Sourced directly from Bomag, this part meets the exact specifications required to keep engine speed regulation operating correctly on these machines. It installs as a direct replacement for the original spring, requiring no modification to fit. If your tamper is hunting, surging, or failing to hold a steady RPM, a worn or broken governor spring is a common cause — this OEM replacement restores proper throttle response and engine stability.
Key Features
- OEM Spring Tension Accuracy — manufactured to Bomag's exact load and rate specifications, ensuring the governor mechanism responds correctly across the engine's operating range
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — engineered to match the original mounting points and dimensions on BT and BVT series tampers for a clean, straightforward swap
- Broad Tamper Coverage — fits BT 60, BT 60/4, BT 65, BT 65/4, and BVT 65 tampers, covering multiple variants in Bomag's rammer lineup under a single part number 05748208
- Steady Engine Speed Restored — a correctly tensioned governor spring maintains consistent RPM under load, keeping compaction output uniform and preventing the engine from surging or stalling
- Genuine Bomag Part — backed by Bomag's OEM supply chain, so the material grade and coil geometry match what came out of the machine originally
The governor spring is a small but critical component inside the engine's mechanical governor assembly. It works against centrifugal flyweights to regulate fuel delivery and hold the engine at a set RPM regardless of load changes. When the spring weakens, stretches, or breaks, the governor loses the ability to balance those forces — causing the engine to hunt, surge, or lose power under compaction load. Replacing a faulty governor spring with the correct OEM part restores precise throttle control and consistent performance from the tamper.
