The Bomag 53870182 Water Tank is a genuine OEM Water Tank designed for the BW 11 RH-5 pneumatic tyred roller. Sourced directly from Bomag, this component matches the original in form, fit, and material construction, ensuring it installs correctly without modification to existing hardware or plumbing connections. Whether you are replacing a cracked, leaking, or degraded tank, this part restores full water-system capacity to your machine and gets your BW 11 RH-5 back to productive operation.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — manufactured to Bomag's original material and dimensional specifications, delivering the same storage capacity and sealing integrity as the tank fitted at the factory
- Direct-Fit Replacement — engineered to match the mounting points, port locations, and dimensions of the original Water Tank on the BW 11 RH-5, so installation is straightforward
- Confirmed Fitment — verified for the Bomag BW 11 RH-5 pneumatic tyred roller; reference part number 53870182 when ordering to ensure an accurate match
- Sustained Tire Wetting Performance — a fully intact tank maintains consistent water supply to the spray system, preventing rubber tire pickup and asphalt adhesion during compaction passes
- Durable Material Integrity — built to resist the vibration and operational stresses common to pneumatic tyred rollers, helping the tank maintain a leak-free seal over extended service life
The water tank on a pneumatic tyred roller holds the supply of water delivered to the machine's tire-wetting system. During asphalt compaction, the spray system continuously wets the rubber tires to prevent hot mix from sticking to them — without an adequate water supply, material buildup on the tires damages the mat surface and reduces compaction quality. A cracked or leaking tank depletes the water supply quickly, leaving operators unable to maintain consistent tire coverage and forcing unplanned stoppages to manage the problem. Replacing a failed tank with a correct-fit OEM component like this one restores full system operation and protects both the asphalt mat and the tires themselves.
