Bosch Power Tools, a global power tools and accessories provider, announced the launch of a new tool category for the company in the drywall sector. Bosch is supporting the industry with the innovative GTB18V-45 18V Brushless 1/4-inch Hex Screwgun and GCU18V-30 18V Brushless Cut-Out Tool.
The new tools include the technology for precise performance in an ergonomic design for convenience and comfort. The GTB18V-45 18V includes variable speed for controlled operating speed and the GCU18V30 18V includes soft-start technology to reduce startup torque.
“We are excited to break into the drywall category with two new tools, created to elevate the workers’ user experience across drywall projects,” said Corey Hinkel, product manager for Bosch Power Tools. The GTB18V-45 screw gun’s well-balanced design allows users to operate it comfortably between thumb and index finger, while the GCU18V-30 cut-out tool features an ergonomic slim grip designed to provide comfort when holding the product.”
Both tools also offer brushless motor technology, providing the power to effectively cut through drywall and get the job done with ease. They’re designed for efficiency that brings the power of a corded product — without the cord.
