Overview:
This damper / gas strut is a heavy-duty replacement part for the scraper bar mechanism on Bomag BW161 rollers. Built around a gas-charged steel cylinder with a durable black finish, it provides controlled movement to support and steady moving assemblies, helping to prevent sudden drops and impact loads. Rated at 400 N, it is suitable for counterbalancing and stabilising medium-weight panels and linkages. Key dimensions are A: 225 mm, B: 170 mm, and C: 60 mm (as per the original specification). Supplied to match Manufacturer Part Number (MPN) 991 294, it is designed as a straightforward swap for a worn or failed unit. In service, it helps the scraper bar operate smoothly and can also be used on bonnet or canopy assemblies where specified on the BW161.
