Bosch GSB 16 RE 750W Impact Drill, 13mm Keyed Chuck

Bosch GSB 16 RE Impact Drill

The Bosch GSB 16 RE is a high-performance corded power tool engineered for professional masonry, wood, and metal drilling applications. This 750W unit provides the high torque and impact rate required for consistent penetration in tough substrates. It is a standard requirement for electricians and plumbers who need a reliable tool for wall-plug installations and structural fastening.

Built for the Job

Contractors often face diverse drilling requirements on a single site, ranging from soft timber to high-density concrete. This corded unit bridges the gap between light drilling and heavy-duty masonry work with a robust metal gear housing that ensures heat dissipation during prolonged use. Site supervisors value the compact design, which allows for overhead work or operation in tight corners without causing excessive operator fatigue. The variable speed trigger allows for clean holes in delicate surfaces like ceramic tiles before the impact mechanism engages for the primary substrate. The rotating brush plate ensures constant power in both forward and reverse rotations, which is essential for removing stuck bits or driving fasteners.

• Installation of conduit and pipe clips into brickwork or concrete blocks using masonry bits.

• Drilling through structural timber and framing for bolt and screw placement.

• Precision drilling into metal profiles and steel plates using high-speed steel bits.
