The Bomag 05522903 Shim is a genuine OEM component designed for Bomag single drum rollers and walk-behind rollers, including the BW 124, BW 225, BW 226, and BW 55 series. Sourced directly from Bomag, this shim delivers the exact thickness tolerances required to maintain proper component spacing and alignment within the machine. It is a direct-fit replacement for all covered models, including BW 226 DH-4, BW 226 DH-5, BW 124 DH-5, BW 124 PDH-5, BW 225 D-3, BW 55 E, and the full range of variants listed in the fitment data. Keeping the correct shim in place is essential to protecting the drivetrain and maintaining smooth, consistent compaction performance.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Thickness Accuracy — machined to Bomag's exact dimensional specification, ensuring correct component spacing and preventing premature wear caused by stack-up error
- Drop-In Replacement — matches the original shim profile and seat geometry, installing directly in place of the factory part with no reworking of adjacent components
- Broad Fitment Coverage — fits BW 124, BW 225, and BW 226 single drum rollers across multiple generation variants, as well as BW 55 E and BW 55 walk-behind rollers
- Alignment-Critical Performance — a worn or incorrect shim allows unwanted play between mating components, leading to accelerated bearing and housing wear and uneven compaction output
- Verified Bomag Part Number — order with confidence using part number 05522903 to confirm you are receiving the correct OEM shim for your machine
A shim is a precisely dimensioned spacer used to set and maintain the correct clearance or preload between two mating components — such as bearings, gears, shafts, or housings. In a compaction roller, shims are critical to keeping rotating and load-bearing assemblies properly aligned so that force is transferred efficiently without creating excessive friction or play. When a shim is missing, damaged, or replaced with one of the wrong thickness, the result is misalignment that accelerates wear across surrounding components and can cause vibration, noise, or loss of compaction effectiveness.
