The Bomag 05580162 Steering Wheel is a genuine OEM replacement designed for Bomag BW 115 and BW 131 tandem rollers. Sourced directly from Bomag, this steering wheel matches the original component in every dimension and mounting specification, ensuring a direct, hardware-compatible installation. This part fits the BW 131 ACW-2, BW 115 AC-3, BW 115 AD-3, BW 131 ACW-3, and BW 131 AD-3 tandem rollers, giving operators across the BW 115 and BW 131 series a verified OEM solution. When a worn or damaged steering wheel compromises control, replacing it with the correct genuine part restores full operator input and confident machine handling.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — manufactured to Bomag's original design standards, with correct hub dimensions, spoke geometry, and grip profile specific to the BW 115 and BW 131 operator station
- Direct-Fit Installation — mounts to the existing steering column without modification, matching the original bolt pattern and spline interface for a clean swap
- Broad BW 115 and BW 131 Coverage — confirmed fit for BW 131 ACW-2, BW 115 AC-3, BW 115 AD-3, BW 131 ACW-3, and BW 131 AD-3 tandem rollers
- Restored Operator Control — a properly fitted steering wheel maintains precise, responsive directional input, which is essential for accurate pass alignment on asphalt finishing work
- Verified Part Number Fit — ordering by Bomag part number 05580162 eliminates guesswork and ensures you receive the correct wheel for your specific tandem roller variant
The steering wheel is the operator's primary interface for directing the roller during compaction passes. On tandem rollers like the BW 115 and BW 131 series, accurate steering is critical for maintaining consistent overlap and achieving uniform mat density across asphalt surfaces. A cracked, slipping, or worn steering wheel reduces the operator's ability to make precise corrections, increasing the risk of misaligned passes and surface defects. Replacing a degraded steering wheel with a genuine OEM component restores direct, predictable control and keeps the operator working efficiently through long compaction runs.
