BOMAG BW 120 AC-5 STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

Technical Description

The BOMAG BW 120 AC-5 is a compact tandem vibratory smooth drum roller designed for efficient soil and asphalt compaction, especially suited for footpaths, repair work, and finishing tasks in road construction. It features a 47.2-inch drum width with front and rear drums both measuring 2.3 feet in diameter, delivering a high centrifugal force of 9,217 lbs to ensure effective compaction. The roller operates a nominal amplitude of 0.1 inches and vibration frequencies between 60 and 67 vpm for optimal ground contact and uniform compaction. Powered by a water-cooled Kubota D1803 three-cylinder engine producing 33 hp at 2,600 rpm, it offers reliable performance with low emissions. This model has an operating weight of 5,401 lbs and a maximum travel speed of 6.2 mph, making it highly maneuverable in confined spaces and urban settings. Its hydrostatic steering system with oscillatory articulation provides a 32-degree steering angle and a 2.8-degree oscillating angle, enhancing operator control and stability on uneven terrain. The BW 120 AC-5 utilizes hydromec parking brakes and hydrostatic service brakes for safe operation. Dimensions include an overall length of 99.6 inches, width of 50 inches, ground clearance of 10 inches, and a cab height of 6 feet, supporting comfortable operator visibility and access. The roller runs on 9.5/65-15 tires designed for durability and traction. Advanced features include the BOMAG ECONOMIZER for real-time compaction monitoring, maintenance-free articulated joints, and easy access to key components for streamlined servicing. This tandem roller is well suited for landscaping, road repair, and medium-sized construction projects demanding precision compaction and operator efficiency.
