Bosch GSC 18V-16 E 18v Cordless Metal Shears

The Bosch GSC 18V-16 E is an 18V cordless metal shear designed for cutting steel and aluminium sheeting, ventilation pipes, and channels in professional trade environments.

Powered by a brushless motor, the GSC 18V-16 E delivers cutting performance equivalent to a 700W corded tool — without the restriction of a cable. Maintenance-free components and a high-quality build contribute to long tool life, making it a reliable choice for plumbers, HVAC engineers, and metal construction contractors.

Ergonomics have been carefully considered, with a slim 156mm grip and a well-balanced, lightweight design that reduces fatigue during extended use. The tool achieves a no-load stroke rate of 3,200spm and a minimum curve cutting radius of 20mm, offering precision across a range of cutting tasks. Restart protection provides an additional layer of user safety.

Compatible with all Bosch Professional 18V batteries and chargers, the GSC 18V-16 E integrates seamlessly into the Bosch 18V System. It also supports AMPShare, the multi-brand battery alliance, giving contractors greater flexibility across their cordless tool inventory.
