Bosch GDR18V-1950CN 18V Brushless 1/4" Hex Impact Driver (Bare Tool)

The Bosch GDR18V-1950CN 18V cordless brushless impact driver delivers 1,950 in-lbs of rotational torque and 4,000 impacts per minute for heavy-duty structural fastening across timber, sheet metal, and masonry anchors. Engineered with an ultra-compact 4.45-inch head length and an electronic 3-speed digital user interface, this 1/4-inch quick-insert hex driver fits into tight framing bays and between narrow stud cavities. Featuring integrated Auto Stop and Auto Slow Down modes, it prevents workpiece overdriving, fastener head stripping, and material shearing under high-speed assembly conditions.

**Battery and charger sold separately.

Best Used For:

  • Structural Fastening in Confined Spaces: Driving heavy lag screws and structural fasteners between narrow 16-inch framing studs and tight mechanical chases.
  • Precision Sheet Metal Driving: Utilizing Auto Slow Down modes to prevent stripping self-drilling screws during metal roofing and HVAC duct installation.
  • High-Speed Decking and Framing: Sinking construction screws rapidly into dense lumber with 3,400 RPM top speed and 4,000 IPM impact rates.

Key Performance & Safety Features

  • Efficient Brushless Motor: Delivers 1,950 in-lbs of max fastening torque and extended runtime while eliminating carbon brush maintenance.
  • 3-Speed Digital Interface: Selectable speed stages (800 / 2,300 / 3,400 RPM) tailor power output and prevent over-torquing small fasteners.
  • Auto Stop & Slow Down Modes: Advanced algorithmic shutoff protects work surfaces by preventing screw breakage and cam-out damage.
  • One-Handed Quick-Insert Chuck: 1/4-inch hex collet enables rapid, tool-free power bit insertion directly into the locking sleeve.
  • Compact 4.45-Inch Profile: Ultra-short head design provides superior maneuverability in awkward orientations and cramped cabinet boxes.
  • Dual LED Illumination: Twin bright worklights illuminate the immediate work surface to eliminate shadows in unlit jobsites.
