Key Features of Bosch Professional SDS Drills

• Brushless motors: Models such as the GBH 18V-22, GBH 18V-28 D and GBH 18V-36 C BITURBO use brushless motors, which means more work from each charge and less motor wear.
• Corded power: The GBH 12-52 D uses a 1,700W motor to deliver 19 J of impact energy, suited to heavy chiselling and large-diameter drilling.
• 3-mode operation: The GBH 2-26 and GBH 2-28 offer rotary-only, hammer drilling and chiselling modes, so one machine handles drilling, fixing and light chasing.
• Quick-change chucks: The "F" models, such as the GBH 2-28 F and GBH 18V-26 F, add a quick-change chuck. The GBH 18V-18 X ONECHUCK is built for fast switching between accessory types.
• Vibration control: The GBH 12-52 DV adds Vibration Control to the SDS Max format, helping reduce hand-arm vibration over a long day on site.

• Demolition and refurbishment crews: breaking out concrete and stripping floors with SDS Max machines.
• Serious DIYers: extensions, patios and renovation work that standard hammer drills struggle with.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I choose SDS Plus or SDS Max?

SDS Plus suits most trade drilling, from small fixings up to medium-diameter holes. SDS Max is for large-diameter drilling and heavy breaking, as with the GBH 12-52 D. If you mostly fix and drill, SDS Plus is lighter and easier to handle.

Is a cordless Bosch Professional SDS drill powerful enough for site work?

For most daily drilling, yes. Brushless 18v models such as the GBH 18V-22 and GBH 18V-26 are built for professional use. For sustained heavy chiselling, a corded 240v machine or the GBH 18V-36 C BITURBO is the better fit.

What does the "F" in a model name mean?

On models such as the GBH 2-28 F and GBH 18V-26 F, it indicates a quick-change chuck. This makes swapping accessories quicker and suits users who move between different bit types.

Can I use other makes of SDS bits?

Yes. SDS Plus and SDS Max are standard fittings, so bits and chisels from other makers will fit. Make sure you match the system to your drill: SDS Plus bits for SDS Plus machines and SDS Max accessories for SDS Max machines.
