Bomag single-drum rollers BW 124 to BW 219 – from Boppard, world market leader in compaction: the final digits as weight class, D for smooth, PD for padfoot drum, H for drum drive, 35 to 120 kW
Bomag of Boppard on the Rhine is the world's largest maker of compaction equipment – founded in 1957, part of the French Fayat group since 2005 – and the single-drum rollers are the earthwork programme: vibratory rollers with a driven rear axle for embankments, base courses and landfills. The type logic: BW stands for Bomag Walze, the final digits give the weight class in tonnes – BW 145 about 4.5 t, BW 177 about 7 t, BW 211 about 11 t, BW 213 about 13 t, BW 219 about 19 t – the letters the drum and the drive: D for the smooth drum, PD for the padfoot drum for cohesive soils, H for the version with additionally driven drum for gradients, B for the dozer blade; -2, -3, -4 and -40 are generations up to Stage IV. The engines come from Deutz – F3L and BF4L 2011, TCD 2013, BF6L 913 – and Cummins QSB3.3.

The register lists 13 versions with 35 to 119.7 kW from three- to six-cylinders at 2,200 to 2,800 rpm and operating weights from 3,350 to 19,476 kg.
Bomag's hallmarks are the Terrameter compaction meter and Variocontrol, which automatically matches vibration amplitude and direction to soil stiffness – introduced in 1998 as the first automatic compaction control and today the standard of continuous compaction control.
On used rollers, operating hours, the condition of vibration bearings and rubber buffers, leak-free travel and vibration hydraulics, play in the articulation joint, pad wear on PD rollers and Deutz parts supply are what count.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
