- Is the GSB 18V-55 good for masonry?
- It handles light masonry and brick in hammer mode. For regular work in hard concrete, a corded or SDS rotary hammer is the better tool.
- Does it come with batteries?
- It is sold both as a bare tool and as a kit with batteries and a charger. Check which version you are buying, since the bare tool needs Bosch Professional 18V batteries.
- How does it compare with the GSB 18V-50?
- The 18V-55 adds a brushless motor and a bit more torque over the older brushed model, so it runs longer and needs less maintenance.
- What size chuck does it have?
- It has a 13 mm (about 0.51 inch) keyless chuck, which takes standard drill and screwdriver bits up to that shank size.
- Is it too heavy for overhead work?
- It is heavier than compact combi drills, so long sessions overhead can tire your arm. For light overhead jobs a smaller compact drill is easier to handle.
- Can it be used for screwdriving?
- Yes. The two-speed gearbox and clutch make it usable for driving screws, though a dedicated impact driver is faster for long screws.
