The Bomag 05818700 Travel Motor is a genuine OEM component designed for BMP 8500 trench compactors and BM 1000/35, BM 1200/35, and BM 1300/35 cold milling machines. Sourced directly from Bomag, this travel motor meets the exact specifications required for proper hydraulic drive performance on these demanding machines. Whether you're restoring propulsion to a trench compactor or getting a cold milling machine back on grade, this is the correct OEM replacement for the job.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Hydraulic Precision — engineered to Bomag's exact displacement and pressure ratings, ensuring the hydraulic drive circuit operates within spec for consistent ground speed and traction response
- Direct-Replacement Fitment — mounts to the existing hydraulic and mechanical interfaces without adaptation, maintaining the correct port configuration and shaft geometry for a clean installation
- Broad Machine Coverage — fits the BMP 8500 and BMP 8500 Kubota trench compactors, as well as the BM 1000/35, BM 1200/35, and BM 1300/35 cold milling machines
- Restored Propulsion Output — a worn or failed travel motor causes loss of drive power, erratic ground speed, or complete machine immobility; replacing it with this OEM unit restores full, controlled propulsion
- Hydraulic System Integrity — built to handle the operating pressures of Bomag's heavy-duty drive systems, helping prevent internal bypass leakage that degrades tractive effort and machine responsiveness
The travel motor is the hydraulic component responsible for converting pressurized fluid from the machine's hydraulic system into rotational force, which drives the machine's wheels or tracks forward and in reverse. On heavy equipment like cold milling machines and trench compactors, the travel motor must sustain high pressure loads continuously while delivering precise, controllable movement across varying terrain and cutting conditions. When a travel motor begins to fail, operators typically notice a drop in ground speed, sluggish response, or a complete loss of drive — conditions that bring the machine to a standstill and halt production until the unit is replaced.
