Equipment Overview
The BOMAG BW90 is an articulated tandem double drum roller built for light asphalt and soil compaction, part of BOMAG’s AD-5 range of tandem rollers under 5 tonnes. It has an operating weight of 1,600 kg (up to 2,000 kg gross) and a 900 mm drum width, suited to footpaths, patching and finishing work on smaller road construction sites.
Power comes from a Kubota D902 diesel engine producing 20.2 hp (15.1 kW), driving both drums hydrostatically through an oscillating, articulated joint. The machine reaches a centrifugal force of up to 3,822 lb (17 kN) on its front drum, and a hydrostatic service brake pairs with a mechanical parking brake for controlled stops on grade.
