The Bosch GDX18V-285 is an 18V brushless mid-torque 2-in-1 tool that works as both an impact wrench and an impact driver. It has a ½ in. square drive anvil with a friction ring and a ¼ in. hex shank drive, so it takes sockets or bits. Because the anvil is square, it delivers torque directly without a socket adapter.
The brushless motor delivers up to 2,500 in-lbs. of driving torque and 360 ft-lbs. of max breakaway torque, at 0-3,600 impacts per minute. Two speed/torque settings and a variable speed trigger give control over the work. Auto Bolt Release stops rotation when there is no load on the tool, which helps prevent dropping bolts and nuts during removal. Auto Driving Modes halt the tool once the fastener is flush with the workpiece to help prevent damage.
The friction ring has a pin hole for quick socket changes and a secure fit. An intuitive user interface activates the tool's features. A belt clip keeps the tool within reach, and an LED light illuminates dimly lit work areas. The kit includes one 18V lithium-ion 2 Ah standard power battery.
