Breakthrough in the 18 Volt class: Bosch is launching the GBH 18V-34 CF Professional, the most powerful SDS plus rotary hammer ever. Its specially developed, brushless high-performance motor is perfectly coordinated with the electronics and battery, so that the high efficiency of the recommended ProCore18V batteries with 8.0 Ah and 12.0 Ah can be used to their full potential. The Biturbo hammer is therefore clearly different to all previous SDS plus models: It has been optimized for larger drilling diameters and drills with a diameter of 25 millimeters 85 percent faster in concrete than the best competitor. This has been confirmed by an independent test institute. The GBH 18V-34 CF Professional combines its enormous impact energy of 5.8 Joules with optimum tool control: It weighs 5.9 kilograms and thus offers the best power-to-weight ratio of all cordless rotary hammers with SDS plus on the market. Bosch has also transferred the robust design of SDS max hammers to the SDS plus tool for complex tasks: Its replaceable keyless chuck, which also allows it to drill into masonry, wood and metal without impact, has been specially reinforced to absorb the stresses that occur. Craftsmen such as electricians, plumbers, heating and air-conditioning installers can thus rely on a robust all-rounder with top performance.
