Bosch Gbh 2-26dre Sds Plus Drill

Cheryl bought me an SDS drill for my birthday. I used it for the first time this weekend.

Up to now I have done everything with my 18v Dewalt XRP which is a fantastic drill for most applications. Event hough it is a battery drill the hammer action and the power of it is amazing, I have drilled 18mm holes through brick walls with it no problem.

Bosch BGH2-26dre SDS Plus 2kg Drill

With the extension work coming up I wanted something with added power and with the chisel only action. Cheryl was fishing around form something to buy me for my Birthday so I suggested an SDS drill.

She got me the Bosch GBH 2-26DRE, and I must say how good a piece of kit it really is. This weekend I wanted to cut a hole in the under stairs toilet wall to put a 32mm waste pipe out. I used the chisel action on the new drill which cut through the bricks like butter.

It will prove very useful for the work on the extension, especially for descaling the walls, it will save a great deal of hammering with a lump hammer and bolster chisel.

I would defiantly recommend this drill, it is not the cheapest in the 2KG range but it’s 800w, really does give you the power you need for the bigger jobs and the hammer action, giving up to 3J of force for the chisel is powerful enough to cut through bricks as if they are not there.

I think that Cheryl got it from Screwfix but it is also available on Amazon for around the same price
