The Bomag 10040216 Steering Rod is a genuine OEM component designed for BW 65 HS, BW 65 S, and BW 65 S-2 walk-behind light rollers. Sourced directly from Bomag, this steering rod matches the original part in every dimension and material specification, ensuring it connects and seats exactly as the factory intended. If you're restoring steering response or completing a scheduled service on one of these compact rollers, part number 10040216 is the correct, confirmed replacement.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — manufactured to Bomag's original engineering tolerances, delivering the same material strength and dimensional accuracy as the part that came off the production line
- Direct-Fit Replacement — engineered to connect directly to the steering linkage on BW 65 HS, BW 65 S, and BW 65 S-2 walk-behind light rollers without modification or adaptation
- Confirmed Fitment — verified for the BW 65 HS, BW 65 S, and BW 65 S-2; always cross-reference part number 10040216 against your machine's serial number before ordering
- Restored Steering Precision — a worn or bent steering rod causes vague, unpredictable directional control; replacing it with this OEM rod restores crisp, accurate steering response across the full range of drum travel
- Operator Safety — steering linkage integrity is critical to safe machine operation; using a correctly rated OEM rod ensures the steering system performs within designed load and deflection limits
The steering rod is a structural link within the machine's steering linkage assembly, transmitting the operator's input at the handlebar into precise directional movement of the drum. On walk-behind light rollers like the BW 65 series, this rod must withstand repeated lateral loads across uneven terrain without bending or wearing at its joints. When the steering rod is damaged or worn, operators experience looseness, pulling, or complete loss of directional control — conditions that affect both compaction quality and safe machine handling.
