The Bomag 05712907 Starter is a genuine OEM component designed for BW 216 and BW 218 series single drum rollers. Sourced directly from Bomag, this starter delivers an exact match to the original unit, ensuring correct electrical and mechanical fitment with no guesswork. This genuine OEM part is confirmed compatible with the BW 216 D-4, BW 216 DHC-4, BW 216 PD-4, BW 216 D-40, and BW 218 D-40 single drum rollers. When your machine needs a dependable restart, this is the correct part to reach for.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Electrical Specification — matched to the original starter's voltage, torque output, and drive engagement spec, so the engine cranks correctly every time
- Direct Bolt-On Replacement — mounts to the same bolt pattern and connects to the same wiring harness as the original, keeping installation straightforward
- Confirmed Fitment — verified for the BW 216 D-4, BW 216 DHC-4, BW 216 PD-4, BW 216 D-40, and BW 218 D-40 single drum rollers
- Consistent Cold and Hot Starting — a properly functioning starter delivers the cranking force needed to fire the engine in all operating conditions; a worn unit causes slow or failed starts that halt production
- Electrical Safety Compliance — built to OEM tolerances for proper current draw and pinion engagement, reducing the risk of wiring or flywheel ring-gear damage from an undersized or worn-out unit
The starter is responsible for cranking the engine each time the machine is keyed on. It draws power from the battery and uses a pinion gear to engage the engine's flywheel ring gear, spinning the engine fast enough to achieve combustion and start the machine. A failing starter may produce slow cranking, a grinding noise, or a complete no-start condition — any of which will take a single drum roller out of service immediately. Replacing a worn starter with an exact OEM-specification unit like part number 05712907 restores dependable engine starting and protects the flywheel ring gear from the damage that an under-performing starter can cause.
