Bosch GDX 180-LI Professional Cordless Impact Driver

PRIMARY USES

1. Dual-Function Fastening and Drilling for Construction and Maintenance
Primary Use: An 18V cordless impact driver/wrench (180 Nm torque) with a unique 2-in-1 tool holder featuring both a ¼-inch hexagon bit holder for screwdriving and drilling, and a ½-inch square drive for bolting applications. Essential for electricians, plumbers, HVAC installers, and maintenance technicians requiring the versatility of both an impact driver and a wrench in a single tool.
How it helps: For tradespeople, the dual bit holder eliminates the need for two separate tools, allowing them to switch between screwdriving, drilling, and bolting tasks instantly. The high torque of 180 Nm, combined with a fast rotation speed of 0–2,800 rpm and 0–3,600 impacts per minute, ensures fast and efficient working progress on a range of applications. The compact design and lightweight construction (1.1 kg without battery) make it ideal for operation in confined spaces, tight corners, and at height where manoeuvrability is crucial.
2. Soft and Light-Duty Bolting
Primary Use: Designed for bolting applications and light maintenance tasks requiring up to 180 Nm of torque, such as external unit installation and more complex piping work.
How it helps: The impact wrench function, using the ½-inch square drive, provides the controlled force needed to tighten and loosen nuts and bolts efficiently, making it a valuable tool for HVAC and installation work.
