The Bomag 05521801 Shim is a genuine OEM component designed for a wide range of Bomag single drum rollers and walk-behind rollers, including the BW 211, BW 177, and BW 179 series. Sourced directly from Bomag, this shim delivers the exact thickness, material grade, and dimensional tolerancing required for correct assembly and bearing or shaft alignment. This part fits an extensive lineup of BW-series machines, spanning walk-behind light rollers such as the BW 60 S, BW 65 S, BW 65 HS, BW 75 S, and BW 90 S, through to heavy single drum rollers including the BW 177 D-3, BW 177 DH-4, BW 179 PDH-4, BW 211 D-5, BW 211 PD-5, and BW 212 D-40, among many others. Choosing a genuine OEM part number 05521801 ensures the shim seats correctly and maintains proper component spacing without the guesswork of sizing an aftermarket alternative. It also fits BW 35 and BW 35 W trench compactors.
Key Features
- OEM-Exact Thickness Tolerance — manufactured to Bomag's precise dimensional specification, ensuring correct spacing and load distribution at the installation point
- Drop-In Replacement — matches the original shim's profile and material grade, installing directly into the same position without modification or re-machining
- Broad BW-Series Coverage — fits BW 177, BW 178, BW 179, BW 211, and BW 212 single drum rollers, BW 60 S, BW 65 S, BW 65 HS, BW 75 S, BW 75 S-2, BW 90 S walk-behind rollers, and BW 35 trench compactors, including multiple generation variants
- Proper Alignment Restored — a correctly fitted shim maintains the designed clearance between mating components, preventing premature wear on adjacent bearings, shafts, or housings
- Genuine Bomag Part — part number 05521801 is an authentic OEM component, backed by Bomag's quality standards and traceable to the original equipment specification
A shim is a precision-thickness spacer inserted between mating components to set or restore the correct clearance, preload, or alignment during assembly. In compaction equipment like Bomag rollers, shims are commonly used in drum drive assemblies, gearboxes, and bearing housings to ensure rotating components run true and loads are transferred evenly. When a shim is missing, worn, or incorrectly sized, adjacent components experience uneven loading that accelerates bearing and seal wear, causes vibration, and can lead to more extensive drivetrain damage over time.
