The Bomag 05520405 Shim is a genuine OEM component designed for the BW 55 E walk-behind roller. Sourced directly from Bomag, this shim delivers the exact thickness and material specification required to maintain correct component alignment and spacing within the machine. Contractors and service technicians working on BW 55 E equipment can order with confidence knowing this is an authentic Bomag part, matching the original assembly requirements precisely.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Material Consistency — manufactured to Bomag's original thickness tolerances, ensuring the shim seats and functions exactly as the factory assembly requires for the BW 55 E
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — matches the original profile and dimensions, slotting into the existing assembly without rework or modification to surrounding components
- Confirmed Compatibility — verified fitment for the BW 55 E walk-behind roller, so you can order part number 05520405 with full confidence it belongs in your machine
- Preserves Correct Clearances — a worn or missing shim allows unwanted play between components, leading to accelerated wear and misalignment; this part restores the clearances the drivetrain depends on
- Long-Term Assembly Integrity — using an authentic Bomag shim prevents the gradual tolerance creep that imprecise substitutes introduce over a machine's service life
A shim is a precisely machined spacer used to fill gaps, set clearances, or adjust the alignment between two mating components inside a machine's drivetrain, drum assembly, or bearing housing. In a walk-behind roller like the BW 55 E, correct shimming is critical to keeping rotating and sliding parts operating within their designed tolerances. When a shim wears down, deforms, or goes missing, the resulting play or misalignment puts additional stress on adjacent components, accelerating wear and potentially causing further mechanical damage if left unaddressed.
