Bosch GDS18V-740CB14 PROFACTOR 18V 1/2" High-Torque Impact Wrench Kit with CORE18V 8.0Ah Battery and Connectivity Module
The Bosch GDS18V-740CB14 PROFACTOR 18V cordless 1/2-inch high-torque impact wrench kit removes stubborn, corrosion-seized commercial wheel lug nuts, drives heavy structural timber lag screws, and tightens large anchor bolts into foundation footings. Powered by BITURBO brushless technology paired with a high-capacity CORE18V 8.0Ah lithium-ion battery, this pneumatic-grade tool delivers 740 ft-lbs of fastening torque and 1,180 ft-lbs of breakaway torque across three selectable speed stages up to 1,750 RPM and 2,300 IPM. Outfitted with a rapid-change 1/2-inch friction ring anvil, Auto Bolt Release (ABR) to eliminate dropped hardware, an included GCY42 Bluetooth connectivity module for custom app presets, a protective rubber nose cover, and an integrated LED work light, it equips fleet mechanics, ironworkers, and heavy equipment technicians with high-torque fastening precision without trailing pneumatic air lines.
Best Used For:
- Commercial Fleet and Heavy Equipment Wheel Service: Busting loose rusted, overtightened semi-truck and heavy machinery lug nuts with 1,180 ft-lbs of breakaway torque.
- Structural Steel Erection and Flange Bolting: Torquing high-strength A325 and A490 structural steel bolts and pipe flanges quickly on construction sites.
- Heavy Timber Framing and Foundation Anchoring: Driving large-diameter ledger lag bolts and sinking concrete screw anchors into high-PSI cured foundation slabs.
Key Performance & Safety Features
- BITURBO Brushless Power Plant: Combines a high-output brushless motor with an engineered geartrain to produce 740 ft-lbs of fastening torque and 1,180 ft-lbs of breakaway force.
- Auto Bolt Release (ABR) Mode: Automatically halts reverse impact rotation the instant hardware is loosened, preventing nuts and bolts from spinning off and dropping from heights.
- 3-Stage Speed & Torque Interface: Features three selectable output ranges (0-800, 0-1,300, and 0-1,750 RPM) to match fastening force directly to fastener diameter and material density.
- 1/2" Friction Ring Anvil: Ensures swift, secure socket retention and fast accessory swaps while eliminating the downtime of pin-detent retainers.
- Smart Bluetooth Connectivity: Includes the Bosch GCY42 module to pair with the Bosch Toolbox app for setting custom modes, material profiles, and receiving real-time tool diagnostics.
- High-Capacity CORE18V 8.0Ah Battery: Advanced 21700 cell architecture with CoolPack 2.0 thermal casing delivers up to 2x more runtime than standard compact packs under heavy cycling.
