The Bomag 05718245 Piston is a genuine OEM component designed for Bomag BW 211, BW 213, BW 214, BW 216, and BW 218 series single drum rollers. Sourced directly from Bomag, this piston meets the same manufacturing standards as the part originally installed at the factory, ensuring a correct, direct fit with no guesswork. Compatible across a wide range of single drum roller variants — including the BW 211 D-4, BW 213 D-40, BW 216 DHC-4, BW 216 PD-40, BW 218 D-40, and the C850D — this replacement covers one of Bomag's most widely deployed compaction platforms. When it's time to restore engine performance and protect your investment, genuine OEM parts like this piston are the straightforward choice.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — manufactured to Bomag's original piston geometry, alloy grade, and surface finish specifications, ensuring proper compression and ring seal from the first start
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — engineered to match the bore diameter, pin bore, and crown profile of the original, so this piston installs into the cylinder bore without modification
- Broad Single Drum Roller Coverage — fits BW 211, BW 213, BW 214, BW 216, and BW 218 single drum rollers across multiple generation variants, including D-4, D-40, DHC-4, PD-4, PD-40, and EU-Flex configurations, as well as the C850D
- Sustained Engine Output — a correctly fitted piston maintains proper compression ratio and combustion efficiency, keeping the engine delivering the torque and drum force these rollers depend on for consistent soil compaction
- Verified Part Number — ordering by part number 05718245 confirms you are receiving the exact Bomag piston specified for these machines, eliminating the risk of sourcing a dimensionally incorrect substitute
The piston is a core reciprocating component inside the engine cylinder, translating combustion pressure into the crankshaft rotation that powers the machine. It works in tight tolerance with the cylinder wall and piston rings to seal combustion gases and manage heat transfer away from the combustion chamber. When a piston wears, cracks, or scores, compression drops, oil consumption rises, and the engine loses the power needed to drive the vibratory drum and propulsion system — making timely replacement essential to keeping a single drum roller productive on the compaction site.
