The Bomag 48230105 Shim is a genuine OEM component designed for Bomag BW-series walk-behind and tandem rollers, as well as the BMP 8500 trench compactor. Sourced directly from Bomag, this shim delivers the exact thickness and material specification required for proper mechanical alignment and clearance. This part fits a broad range of Bomag compaction equipment, including the BW 75 ADL walk-behind light roller, BW 135 AD, BW 138 AD, BW 100 AC-3, BW 100 AD-3, BW 120 AC-3, BW 120 AD-3, BW 120 AD 3, BW 120 AD-3, BW 125 ACH, BW 125 ADH, BW 135 AC, BW 138 AC, BW 138-AD tandem rollers, and the BMP 8500 trench compactor. As a genuine OEM part, it meets Bomag's original engineering tolerances for a drop-in installation.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Dimensional Accuracy — manufactured to Bomag's exact thickness tolerances, ensuring correct mechanical spacing and preventing misalignment that can accelerate component wear
- Direct-Fit Replacement — matches the original shim's geometry and material grade, installing without modification under part number 48230105
- Broad Bomag Fitment — compatible with the BW 75 ADL walk-behind light roller, BW-series tandem rollers including the BW 100 AC-3, BW 120 AD-3, BW 125 ADH, BW 135 AD, BW 138 AD, and the BMP 8500 trench compactor
- Precise Clearance Control — maintains the correct gap or preload between mating components, supporting consistent compaction performance and smooth machine operation
- Long-Term Fit Retention — made from durable shim stock that resists compression set and deformation under the cyclic loads typical of vibratory compaction equipment
A shim is a thin, precision-machined spacer inserted between two mating components to set or adjust the clearance, preload, or alignment between them. In compaction equipment like Bomag rollers and trench compactors, shims are used in drivetrain assemblies, bearing housings, and drum mounting systems to maintain exact tolerances as components are assembled or rebuilt. When a shim is worn, deformed, or the wrong thickness, the resulting misalignment or improper preload can cause premature bearing failure, uneven drum wear, vibration anomalies, and accelerated damage to surrounding components — making correct shim selection and replacement essential to a successful rebuild or service.
