Bosch GSB 162-2 RE 1500W 2-Speed Impact Drill

Bosch GSB 162-2 RE Impact Drill

The Bosch GSB 162-2 RE 1500W 2-Speed Impact Drill provides the high torque required for large-diameter drilling and heavy-duty site applications. This corded power tool handles dry diamond core drilling up to 162mm in masonry and concrete. It features a robust 1500W motor designed to maintain performance under significant load during professional installations.

Built for the Job

This machine is a staple for HVAC installers, plumbers, and electricians who need to create large penetrations for pipes and ductwork. The high torque output allows for efficient core drilling without stalling in tough materials like brickwork and stone. Site supervisors often specify this model for its durability in structural modifications. It replaces the need for multiple smaller units when tackling high-resistance surfaces. The mechanical two-speed gearbox ensures you have the right balance of speed and power for different bit sizes. Whether you are boring through thick masonry or setting large fasteners, this tool provides the necessary stability and force.

• Dry diamond core drilling up to 162mm for plumbing and ventilation ducts.

• Heavy-duty drilling in non-reinforced concrete and natural stone.

• High-torque applications in timber and structural steel frames.

Product Highlights

High-Performance 1500W Motor

The motor delivers a high overload capacity to prevent burnout during continuous core drilling.

Advanced Safety Systems

• Rotation Control Clutch prevents kickback if the core bit jams in the substrate.
• Restart protection stops the unit from automatically starting after a power interruption.

On-Site & Workshop Notes

• Always use the auxiliary handle to manage the high torque levels during core drilling operations.

• Ensure the core bit is correctly seated in the 16mm keyed chuck before starting any penetration.

• For masonry work, engage the impact function to increase penetration speed into harder materials.

• When core drilling, disengage the impact mode to protect the diamond segments from premature wear.

• Keep the motor vents clear of dust to prevent the internal components from overheating during extended run times.
