Bosch GDS 18V-400 Professional 18 V Brushless Impact Wrench Kit - Includes 2 x 5.0 Ah Batteries, Quick Charger and Carry Case (06019K0003)

High Torque Performance with Intelligent Control

 

The Bosch GDS 18V-400 Professional is the most powerful tool in the Bosch mid-torque class, delivering a robust 400 Nm of torque. This brushless impact wrench is engineered to handle heavy-duty applications, such as tightening M20 bolts or removing stubborn automotive fasteners, while remaining compact enough for tight workspaces. Its brushless motor ensures a longer tool life, more runtime, and higher efficiency compared to standard motors.

What sets the GDS 18V-400 apart is its Auto Bolt Release (ABR) technology. This intelligent feature automatically stops the tool when a nut is loosened, preventing it from falling off and getting lost—a critical advantage when working at heights or in complex engine bays. Encased in a robust aluminum housing and featuring a balanced ergonomic design, this tool is built to withstand the harshest jobsite conditions while providing maximum user comfort.

Top 3 Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the Auto Bolt Release (ABR) function work? When the tool is in reverse and the nut is fully loosened, the ABR sensors detect the drop in resistance and stop the motor automatically. This ensures the nut stays in the socket rather than falling to the ground.

2. Is this tool suitable for heavy industrial bolting? Yes, the 400 Nm torque is specifically rated for bolt diameters up to M20, making it suitable for scaffolding, structural steel, and commercial automotive work.

3. Does the aluminum housing make the tool heavier? While the aluminum head adds durability and helps cool the motor during high-load tasks, the tool remains relatively lightweight at 1.25 kg (bare tool), allowing for comfortable overhead work.
