Bosch GDR 18V-200 Professional 3400 RPM Black, Blue

The Bosch GDR 18V-200 Professional impact driver combines a compact pistol-handle design with battery-powered mobility, offering an idle speed up to 3400 RPM and a maximum torque of 200 N⋅m. Designed for trade and site use, this 18 V tool is supplied with two batteries for extended runtime and features an integrated light and reversible drive to support fastening and loosening operations in confined or poorly lit areas. With a stated weight around 1.1 kg and a blue-and-black housing, the unit balances maneuverability and control for a wide range of fastening tasks.

Advantages

The tool delivers high torque output for demanding fastening jobs while remaining portable thanks to its battery power. The pistol-handle ergonomics improve grip and reduce operator fatigue during repeated use. An integrated LED light enhances visibility at the work point, and the reversible function allows quick switching between driving and removal of fasteners. Compact dimensions and a relatively low weight contribute to easier handling in overhead or tight-space applications.

Suitable for

• Driving and removing screws, bolts and fasteners in construction and carpentry
• Assembly and disassembly tasks in mechanical and maintenance work
• Installations where cordless operation and mobility are required
• Work in confined or poorly lit areas thanks to the built-in light

How to use

Fit a compatible screwdriver or impact bit securely into the tool's chuck or quick-release holder, insert a charged 18 V battery into the battery compartment and engage the lock if present. Select the desired rotation direction using the reverse control, position the bit on the fastening head, and apply steady pressure while operating the trigger to achieve controlled driving. For removal, reverse the rotation and apply slow, steady trigger control to avoid cam-out. Use the built-in LED to illuminate the task area when needed and monitor battery charge to maintain consistent performance.

Recommendations

For safe and effective use, match the bit type and size to the fastener, use batteries charged according to manufacturer guidance, and wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as eye protection and gloves. Avoid excessive side loading on the bit; allow the impact mechanism to deliver torque. For repetitive heavy-duty fastening, permit cooling intervals to preserve tool life and keep ventilation openings clear of debris.
