Bosch GSC 18V-16 E sähköleikkuri 3200 iskua/min 700 W

The Bosch GSC 18V-16 E power shear is a cordless metal-cutting tool designed for precise trimming and contour work. It features a brushless motor and a high idle stroke rate of 3,200 spm, delivering steady cutting performance on thin sheet steel up to 0.7 mm. Weighing approximately 1.6 kg and powered by an 18 V battery platform, this shear combines mobility with control for tasks that require tight radii and clean edges, with a minimum cutting radius of 2 cm.

Advantages

The brushless motor increases efficiency and service life while reducing maintenance needs. The high stroke rate ensures smooth cuts and consistent feed through thin metal sheets. Compact and lightweight construction improves maneuverability and reduces operator fatigue during extended use. The tool’s design supports accurate contour cutting and clean edge quality, suitable for professional sheet metal work and renovation tasks.

Suitable for

• Trimming and contour cutting of thin steel sheets
• Roofing and flashing adjustments on site
• HVAC ductwork and sheet metal fabrication
• Repair and renovation tasks requiring tight cutting radii
• Mobile work where cordless operation is needed

How to use

Before use, install a compatible charged 18 V battery and ensure the cutting blades are properly fitted and tightened according to the manufacturer’s guidance. Mark the cutting line on the sheet and position the shear so the blade follows the layout; start the tool and advance it steadily along the line while maintaining a consistent feed speed. For curved cuts, proceed slowly to respect the minimum cutting radius and avoid forcing the tool. After finishing, switch off the tool, remove the battery and perform any recommended blade cleaning or inspection.

Recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves and eye protection and secure the workpiece before cutting. Match battery capacity to the expected workload to maintain cutting performance. Replace blades when dull to preserve cut quality and reduce motor load. For tasks beyond the specified cutting capacity, choose a machine suited to thicker materials.
