The Bomag 05816244 Travel Motor is a genuine OEM component designed for BW 115 AC-3, BW 115 AD-3, BW 115 AC-5, and BW 138 AC-5 tandem rollers. Sourced directly from Bomag, this travel motor meets the original engineering specifications for your machine, ensuring a correct, direct-fit installation without guesswork. If your tandem roller is showing sluggish travel response, uneven drum drive, or a complete loss of propulsion, replacing the travel motor with an authentic OEM unit is the right call. Verify your model against the fitment list and order with confidence — part number 05816244 is the correct replacement for these Bomag tandem roller applications.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Hydraulic Precision — manufactured to Bomag's original specifications, this travel motor delivers the correct displacement, torque output, and port configuration for your tandem roller's hydraulic drive circuit.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — the motor mounts and connects using the original hydraulic ports and mechanical interfaces, dropping in as a true like-for-like replacement on the machines it serves.
- Confirmed Tandem Roller Fitment — compatible with BW 115 AC-3, BW 115 AD-3, BW 115 AC-5, and BW 138 AC-5 tandem rollers; check your model before ordering.
- Restored Propulsion Performance — a worn or failing travel motor causes loss of drive power, erratic drum speed, or complete travel failure; installing this OEM unit restores full, balanced propulsion to both drums.
- Hydraulic System Integrity — as a fuel and hydraulic-system component, using the correct OEM part guards against pressure mismatches and seal incompatibility that can cascade into broader hydraulic damage.
The travel motor is a hydraulic-driven component responsible for converting hydraulic pressure from the machine's propulsion circuit into mechanical rotation, driving the drums forward and in reverse. On tandem asphalt rollers like the BW 115 and BW 138 series, consistent and balanced travel motor performance is critical to maintaining uniform drum speed and achieving even compaction passes across the mat. When a travel motor begins to wear or fails internally, the result is reduced drive force, jerky or asymmetric travel, and ultimately a machine that cannot move under its own power — bringing compaction operations to a halt.
