Bosch is expanding its range of demolition tools and is presenting its first cordless demolition hammer – the GSH 18V-5 Professional. The new tool using the Professional 18V System combines the power of corded tools with the freedom that only a rechargeable battery can offer, all while setting new standards: The GSH 18V-5 Professional is the lightest and most-compact cordless demolition hammer in the five-kilo class thanks to its improved impact mechanism with higher impact energy and reduced drive-train weight. It offers an impact energy of 8.5J and is therefore on par with comparable corded tools such as the GSH 5 CE Professional. This performance is best achieved with a 12.0 Ah battery. The Professional 18V System covers all other major 18V applications – and even goes beyond the Bosch range, thanks to multiple partners in the multi-brand AmpShare battery alliance. Many brands. Many tools. One battery system: All tools – from compact screwdriver to miter saw – can run on the same 18V lithium-ion battery and charger, thus saving tradespeople time, space, and money.

Cordless freedom with corded performance

Thanks to its optimal power-to-weight ratio, the GSH 18V-5 Professional is suitable for use in hard-to-reach or confined working areas. It has an SDS max holder so professionals can precisely adapt their chisels from Bosch’s extensive range of accessories to the task at hand. With the Pro SDS max-5C flat chisel, for example, cable channels can be created particularly quickly and precisely.

Maximum user protection: Low-dust and low-vibration chiselling

The GSH 18V-5 Professional offers maximum power with minimum weight while providing a high level of user protection at the same time. Its vibration control minimizes vibrations so that users can work for longer. In addition, the matching accessories can be used to create a low-dust construction site: The new M-Class dust extractor GAS 18V-12 MC Professional, for example, can be connected to both the Expert SDS Clean Set and the GDE max Professional. The dust produced is extracted directly where it is generated. This provides professionals with the best possible protection.

Simple operation thanks to optimal tool control

Chiselling is particularly precise and easy thanks to the Adaptive Speed Control (ASC) soft start. The GSH 18V-5 Professional reduces the speed when idling and quickly ramps up to the set speed when the chisel is applied. This function enables tradespeople to position the chisel precisely and work with pinpoint accuracy. The integrated user interface offers two working modes that can be set at the touch of a button. For hard breakthrough applications, users can select 100 percent of the power. For lighter work such as removing plaster residue or tiles, they can switch to 70-percent power, which gives the battery an even longer runtime. In addition, users always have an overview of the tool and battery status via the integrated user interface. The Vario-Lock allows the chisel to be locked in twelve different positions, making it possible to select the most suitable and comfortable working position for each task. The Lock-on button ensures comfortable chiselling during continuous operation.

The GSH 18V-5 Professional cordless demolition hammer will be available starting in May. Many different accessories are available as part of the Bosch accessory range. The prices are recommended retail prices and do not include VAT.
