When the job calls for power, professional users reach for the Bosch 18V drill/driver and hammer drill/driver offerings. Both the Bosch DDH183 18V EC Brushless Brute Tough ½-inch Drill/Driver and HDH183 18V EC Brushless Brute Tough ½-inch Hammer Drill/Driver includes injury-mitigating kickback control and an ergomonic design.
With both the DDH183 drill/driver and HDH183 hammer drill/driver delivering 663 In.-Lbs. of torque at two speeds (0-2100 rpm high speed; 0-480 rpm for high torque), professionals can pack power in a cordless package.
That’s why both Brute Tough models feature Bosch KickBack Control, an integrated acceleration sensor that virtually stops the drill’s rotation during bit bind-up situations. This feature helps reduce the risk of user injury, and an LED light shows when KickBack Control is activated or the tools overload protection is activated. In addition, the drivers offer 25+1 precision clutch settings, which provide driving accuracy for reduced fastener and workpiece damage.
User benefits continue with DDH183 and HDH183 power, which is driven by an EC brushless motor that provides two times longer tool life than a standard motor and longer runtimes. The Brute Tough design also ensures a shorter head length and a lighter tool with no reduction in power. That’s combined with an all-metal chuck that delivers bit retention. The Bosch Durashield housing adds to overall tool durability. In addition, the handle geometry offers a comfortable grip throughout the workday.
The Bosch Flexible Power System is a versatile Lithium-ion battery platform. The system offers compatibility by allowing 18V FatPack and SlimPack batteries to be used with any tool. And Bosch 18V batteries feature CoolPack technology, which offers a heat conductive housing to keep batteries cooler for runtime and up to 2X longer life. All Bosch batteries provide cold weather performance to -4F, as well as an integrated fuel gauge.
The tool includes Bosch Electronic Cell Protection (ECP) that protects the battery against overload, overheating and deep discharge. Likewise, Bosch Electronic Motor Protection (EMP) protects the motor against overload with integrated temperature management.
As with all Bosch cordless tools, the DDH183 and HDH183 come with Bosch ProVantage, a protection plan that extends coverage against defects to three years (expanded coverage in the first 12 months of standard warranty), plus two-year battery coverage.
