Bosch Power Tools has introduced new tools including an 18V concrete nailer and heat gun, continuing to expand its cordless portfolio to support trade workers. The battery-powered tools facilitate a wide range of construction jobs and can be used in both indoor and outdoor worksites.
“Our Bosch team is keeping the momentum going with new products and an improved 18V limited warranty to better equip trade workers, including plumbers, electricians, HVAC installers and drywallers with tools designed for the work. The new 18V Concrete Nailer, the newest addition to the PROFACTOR high-powered system, is expected to be a fan favorite for workers looking for a fast, consistent nailing solution. The new nailer is powered by CORE18V high power batteries and delivers gas-powered comparable performance for the toughest nailing jobs,” said Philipp Gosau, director of product development for Bosch Tools North America.
