The Bomag 05747122 Starter Rope is a genuine OEM replacement designed for Bomag vibratory plates, reversible vibratory plates, and the BW 55 E walk-behind roller. Sourced directly from Bomag, this starter rope matches the exact length, diameter, and material spec of the original component, ensuring a correct fit without any guesswork. Compatible machines include the BP 10/36, BP 15/45, BP 18/53, BP 20/48, BP 20/53, BPR 25/32, BPR 25/40, and BW 55 E. Whether you are servicing a forward vibratory plate or a reversible plate on a busy compaction crew, this OEM rope keeps your equipment pulling strong and starting reliably.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Material Integrity — Manufactured to Bomag's original rope construction spec, delivering the correct tensile strength and wear resistance needed to withstand repeated pull-start cycles on compact compaction equipment.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Sized and terminated to match the original recoil starter assembly, threading through the housing and anchoring exactly as the factory rope did.
- Broad Bomag Plate and Roller Coverage — Fits the BP 10/36, BP 15/45, BP 18/53, BP 20/48, BP 20/53 vibratory plates; BPR 25/32 and BPR 25/40 reversible vibratory plates; and the BW 55 E walk-behind roller.
- Restored Pull-Start Performance — A frayed or snapped starter rope makes an engine impossible to hand-start; this replacement restores full recoil function so operators can get back to compacting without delay.
- Verified Part Number Fit — Ordering by Bomag part number 05747122 eliminates cross-reference errors and confirms you receive the rope built for these specific machines.
The starter rope is the pull cord inside the recoil starter assembly that allows an operator to manually crank the engine. Each pull rotates the crankshaft, building the compression needed for ignition. Over time, repeated use causes the rope to fray, stiffen, or snap entirely — leaving the machine unable to start until the rope is replaced. Fitting a correct-spec replacement restores the proper recoil action and protects the internal starter pawls and spring from the stress caused by a damaged or incorrectly sized cord.
