Description
Overview:
This water tap is a spare part for the spray bar on Bomag and Benford vibrating rollers, providing reliable control of water flow to the roller drums. It helps maintain a steady water film to reduce asphalt pick-up and dust during compaction. Built with a robust, corrosion-resistant metal body for site conditions, it is suitable as a direct replacement on common spray bar assemblies. The tap features a 3/8" BSP thread (9.525 mm BSP) for connection to the bar or manifold and a 5/8" hose tail (15.875 mm) for the outlet hose. It is widely used on compact rollers such as the Bomag MBR71 and Benford 1-71, restoring dependable water delivery and keeping machines productive.
