Bosch GSH 500 Demolition Hammer, 1100W, 7.5J SDS-Max

Bosch GSH 500 Demolition Hammer

The Bosch GSH 500 Hammer provides high-impact performance for professional masonry and concrete demolition. This 1100W corded tool utilizes an SDS-max bit system to deliver 7.5 Joules of impact energy. It handles medium-duty chipping, channeling, and tile removal on commercial construction sites.

Built for the Job

This unit bridges the gap between light rotary hammers and heavy floor breakers. Site supervisors often specify this model for wall breakthroughs and surface preparation where precision and power are both required. The 5.7kg weight provides enough mass for effective vertical demolition without causing excessive operator fatigue during overhead or shoulder-height tasks. The internal hammer mechanism is engineered for high impact rates, ensuring consistent material removal in cured concrete and brickwork.

• Chipping out channels for electrical conduit and plumbing pipes.

• Removing floor tiles and mortar beds in renovation projects.

• General demolition of masonry walls and concrete reinforcements.

Product Highlights

Impact Performance

The 1100W motor generates 7.5 Joules of impact force to penetrate high-density building materials.

Vario-Lock System

• Offers 12 distinct chisel positions to match the work angle.
• Allows for one-handed adjustment without removing the bit.

Extended Tool Life

• Sealed front cap prevents abrasive dust from entering the SDS-max holder.
• Optimized grease sealing prevents leakage during high-temperature operation.

Technical Specifications

What’s Included

• 1 x GSH 500 Demolition Hammer

• 1 x Auxiliary handle

• 1 x SDS-max pointed chisel (280 mm)

• 1 x Heavy-duty carrying case

On-Site & Workshop Notes

• Always apply a small amount of Bosch shank grease to the chisel end before insertion to maintain the SDS-max chuck.

• The tool does not require heavy downward pressure; let the 7.5J impact mechanism do the work to prevent motor overheating.

• Check the carbon brushes periodically if the tool is used daily for heavy chipping to maintain electrical continuity.

• Ensure the side handle is securely tightened to manage the reactive torque during deep channeling.
