Frequently Asked Questions

How does an 18v cordless router compare to a 240v corded model?

Modern Bosch Professional 18v routers with ProCORE batteries deliver performance closely matching corded equivalents for most professional applications. They excel in site work, installations, and situations where cable management is problematic. For continuous heavy-duty workshop use, 240v models may still offer advantages, but for versatility and convenience, 18v routers are increasingly the professional's choice.

Which Bosch 18v battery should I use with my router?

For optimal performance, we recommend ProCORE18V 4.0Ah or higher capacity batteries. These provide excellent runtime whilst maintaining compact dimensions. The 5.5Ah and 8.0Ah ProCORE batteries offer extended operation for demanding applications, ideal when working away from charging facilities.

Are Bosch Professional routers compatible with standard router bits?

Yes, Bosch Professional 18v routers accept industry-standard quarter-inch (6.35mm) and 8mm shank router bits, ensuring compatibility with your existing bit collection and providing access to the full range of profiles and cutting tools available.
