Weight is important on the jobsite, especially for jobs in concrete that require long periods of drilling or chiseling. The Bosch GBH18V-20 ¾" SDS-plus® Rotary Hammer brings big power at 5,850 bpm, but weighs only 5.7 lbs. (bare tool) – a combination that assures rotary hammer toughness to get the job done, but not at the expense of user fatigue.
The Bosch GBH18V-20 rotary hammer delivers 1.3 Ft.-Lbs. of torque in a tool with three modes for drilling, hammer drilling and chiseling. No-load speed for drilling comes in at 1,800 rpm. An efficient DC motor is easy to maintain with long-lasting carbon brushes.
