The Bomag 10040217 Steering Rod is a genuine OEM replacement designed for the BW 65 S-2 walk-behind roller. Sourced directly from Bomag, this steering rod matches the original component specification, ensuring a direct, hassle-free installation. If you're maintaining or restoring the steering response on your BW 65 S-2, this is the correct OEM part to get the job done right.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — manufactured to Bomag's original design tolerances, ensuring the same material strength and dimensional accuracy as the part it replaces
- Direct Bolt-On Replacement — engineered to connect exactly as the original steering rod on the BW 65 S-2, with no reworking of mounting points or linkage hardware
- Confirmed Fitment — verified for the Bomag BW 65 S-2 walk-behind roller; use part number 10040217 to confirm compatibility before ordering
- Restored Steering Precision — a correctly functioning steering rod transfers operator input accurately to the machine's direction control, keeping the roller tracking true on the compaction pass
- Long-Term Structural Integrity — OEM-grade rod material resists the bending loads and vibration stress that steering linkage components experience during continuous compaction work
The steering rod is a critical linkage component that connects the operator's steering input to the directional mechanism of the roller. On a walk-behind machine like the BW 65 S-2, it transmits the physical force from the handle assembly to guide the drum accurately across the work surface. When the steering rod is bent, worn, or damaged, the operator loses precise directional control, which can lead to uneven compaction patterns and reduced safety during operation.
