The BOMAG BW 120 SL-5 is a compact, static smooth drum roller designed for asphalt patching, footpaths, and finishing work in road construction. It features a hydrostatic drive system coupled with an intelligent vibration control (IVC) exciter, delivering a vibration frequency of 72 vibrations per minute to ensure consistent and reliable compaction. The roller is powered by a Tier 4 Final Kubota diesel engine producing 25 HP at 2,200 rpm, providing efficient performance without the need for an exhaust after-treatment system. The machine has a drum width of 47.2 inches and an operating width of 50 inches, with the drum diameter measuring 27.6 inches and a shell thickness of 0.4 inches. It provides a linear drum load of 58.2 lb/inch, ensuring optimal soil and asphalt compaction. The BW 120 SL-5 weighs approximately 5,622 lbs and offers a compact footprint with an overall length of 99.6 inches, an overall width of 47.2 inches, a height with ROPS of 101 inches, a 69-inch wheelbase, and 10 inches of ground clearance. The inside turning radius is 96.5 inches, allowing excellent maneuverability in confined spaces. This roller includes a spacious operator platform with ergonomic controls and a soft-responsive control lever for intuitive operation. The patented BOMAG ECONOMIZER system provides real-time feedback on compaction quality to avoid over or under-compaction, enhancing efficiency. Maintenance is simplified by a lubrication-free articulated joint and easy access to key components. Additional features include a sprinkler system for drum bandage wetting, a crabwalk function, and integration with BOMAG Fleet Management for optimized uptime and monitoring.
