Product Launch Announcement
Bosch Power Tools announced the addition of two professional‑grade metalworking tools to its Indian portfolio: the GBM 38 Professional Magnetic Core Drill and the GRS 18V‑330 Professional Right‑Angle Impact Wrench. Both devices are engineered for fabricators, maintenance crews and automotive technicians, combining high power, precision and ergonomic design to improve productivity in demanding environments.
GBM 38 Magnetic Core Drill Details
The GBM 38 weighs 10.5 kg, making it roughly 40 % lighter than conventional magnetic core drills, which reduces operator fatigue during overhead or high‑elevation work. It incorporates thermal overload protection and a dedicated current fuse for reliable operation, and it ships with a complete accessory kit that enables immediate on‑site use.
GRS 18V‑330 Right‑Angle Impact Wrench Details
The cordless GRS 18V‑330 features a brushless motor that delivers 330 Nm of fastening torque and 560 Nm of breakaway torque, allowing it to handle bolts up to M18 with ease. Its compact head measures only 78 mm × 56 mm, facilitating access in extremely tight spaces such as engine bays, pipe flanges and structural frameworks.
Executive Comment
Sanmay Dasgupta, Regional President of Bosch Power Tools India, stated that the GBM 38 and GRS 18V‑330 embody the company’s focus on power, precision and operator comfort, and that the tools are designed to boost productivity without compromising safety.
