Bosch GST 18 V-LI S 18V Barrel Grip Jigsaw, 120mm Wood Capacity

Bosch GST 18 V-LI S Barrel Grip Jigsaw

The Bosch GST 18 V-LI S is a high-performance 18V cordless power tool engineered for contractors requiring precision in wood, aluminum, and non-alloy steel. This barrel-grip variant offers superior control when executing curved cuts or working from underneath the workpiece. It integrates seamlessly with the Bosch Professional 18V battery ecosystem, providing the runtime needed for high-volume site work without the restriction of power cables.

Built for the Job

This saw is specifically designed for trade professionals who prioritize maneuverability and visibility. The barrel handle allows the operator’s hand to stay closer to the cutting line, which significantly improves accuracy during intricate scrollwork or template following. Site supervisors and kitchen fitters frequently specify this model for sink cutouts and back-splash trimming where a standard D-handle might obstruct the view or limit movement in tight cabinets. The robust base plate ensures stability across various materials, maintaining a square edge even during aggressive feed rates.

• Precise curve cutting in timber framing and cabinetry installations.

• Underside cutting of worktops to prevent splintering on the finished surface.

• On-site resizing of aluminum profiles and thin-gauge metal sheeting.
