Description

You can't get through concrete with just any drill. But with the Bosch Professional GBH 5-40 DCE hammer drill, you can be sure the toughest material is no problem. The very high 1150W power and a 8.8J impact power are properties that make this hammer drill very powerful. This way, it's suitable to drill 90mm holes in concrete. In the chisel mode, the drill hammer makes up to 3050 impacts per minute to easily demolish any stone wall. You can adjust the speed and the number of impacts manually, so you keep full control over the job. The drill chuck has an SDS Max connector, so your concrete drill bit or chisel stays in place firmly during heavy jobs. The Vibration Control mutes the vibrations during these jobs as much as possible.

Bosch blue lasts for many years and is therefore ultimately more affordable than cheaper brands. This also prevents wastage.
