A new generation for more efficiency: With its cordless drill/driver GSR 18V-55 Professional and the cordless combi drill GSB 18V-55 Professional Bosch offers professionals brushless motors in the entry-level segment for the first time. They have a high level efficiency, are more durable than DC motors commonly used in this class and are maintenance-free at the same time. Carpenters, electrical, sanitary and air-conditioning installers, performing screwdriving applications and drilling in wood, metal and masonry on a daily basis, can thus use two particularly powerful entry models. With a maximum torque of 55 newton meters and up to 1,800 revolutions per minute, both tools ensure a fast work progress. They are suitable for mid-range applications or screw diameters of up to eight millimeters, drill diameters up to 35 millimeters in wood and 13 millimeters in metal. Furthermore, the GSB 18V-55 Professional reliably drills up to 10 millimeters in masonry. The cordless screwdrivers are also more robust than comparable competitor models: They are the only cordless drill/drivers and combi drills in the entry-level segment with metal drill chuck ensuring the best possible torque transfer. The two-speed gearbox is made of metal too and contributes to the robustness of the tools. The equipment is rounded off by an integrated worklight and a belt clip.
