BOSCH GDS18V-740N PROFACTOR 18V 1/2 In. Impact Wrench — Bare Tool

Rugged power for demanding fasteners

The BOSCH GDS18V-740N PROFACTOR 18V 1/2 in impact wrench is engineered to handle tough bolts, rusted anchors, and large fasteners with confidence. This bare tool integrates with the PROFACTOR system, pairing BITURBO Brushless performance with a CORE18V High Power battery to deliver sustained power without cords getting in the way.

With up to 740 ft-lbs of fastening torque and a maximum 1,180 ft-lbs breakaway torque, it gives you the bite you need to start turning stubborn fasteners and keep them moving. Three speed/torque settings (0–800, 1,200, and 1,750 rpm) let you tailor the pace for metal, concrete, or automotive tasks, while the friction ring enables rapid socket changes so you can stay productive on busy jobsites.

Technology and efficiency

BITURBO Brushless Technology powers a high-performance motor and drive-train designed to make the most of CORE18V High Power batteries. This synergy helps maintain strong performance over longer runtimes and reduces tool fatigue during extended sessions, so you can work longer between charges.

• High-torque motor supports breaking free stuck bolts and driving large fasteners quickly
• Three speed/torque settings enable controlled output to protect workpieces
• Friction Ring allows for rapid socket changes without tools
• Onboard interface provides speed choice, status feedback, and LED control

Design details for real-world use

• Ergonomic soft-grip handle improves comfort and control during extended use

Real-world tasks across automotive, construction, and maintenance settings benefit from its combination of torque, control, and system compatibility. Expect strong initial bite on stubborn fasteners, reliable drive for large bolts, and a flexible workflow when paired with other Bosch 18V tools. Always follow safety guidelines and use appropriate PPE when operating power tools.
