Impact Wrench Bosch GDS 18V-1000 Professional, Width: 268 mm, Depth: 292 mm, Height: 102 mm

The Bosch GDS 18V-1000 Professional is a cordless 1/2" impact wrench with BITURBO Brushless technology designed for heavy-duty fastening and loosening. The tool combines a brushless motor optimised for ProCORE18V batteries with a compact body (268 mm width, 292 mm depth, 102 mm height) to deliver high tightening and breakaway torque while remaining portable for on-site metal, truck and wood construction work.

Advantages

The impact wrench delivers a maximum tightening torque of 1,000 Nm and a maximum breakaway torque of up to 1,600 Nm via a new impact mechanism, providing strong performance for demanding applications. Brushless motor and BITURBO technology ensure efficient power use, especially when paired with Bosch ProCORE18V batteries. Three selectable speed/torque settings enable precise control for a range of tasks. Built-in features include Electronic Cell Protection (ECP), Electronic Motor Protection (EMP), a tool status indicator, LED work light, a 1/2" tool holder with friction ring and a ladder clip.

Suitable for

• Structural steel construction and metal assembly
• Pipe fitting and mechanical installations
• Truck maintenance and heavy vehicle work
• Wood construction where high torque fastening is required

How to use

Install a compatible Bosch Professional 18 V battery (ProCORE18V ≥ 5.5 Ah recommended for maximum performance). Fit the required 1/2" socket onto the friction-ring tool holder. Select one of the three speed/torque settings to match the fastener and material, then operate the trigger to tighten or loosen bolts. Use the LED light for improved visibility in low-light conditions and monitor the tool status indicator for battery and motor alerts.

Recommendations

For best results in heavy-duty applications, use ProCORE18V batteries with 5.5 Ah or higher. Match the torque setting to the fastener size (M10–M24 range suggested for metal applications) and allow the tool to cool under continuous heavy load. Follow all safety guidelines for impact wrench operation and wear appropriate protective equipment.
