Bosch GBH 240 F – SDS-plus Rotary Hammer 790 W, 2.7 J, dual chuck

The Bosch GBH 240 F Professional is a robust and versatile 790 W rotary hammer drill with SDS-plus chuck, 2.7 J impact energy, and versatile functions—ideal for drilling concrete, masonry, brick, wood, and metal. Weighing only 2.9 kg and fully equipped (auxiliary handle and depth stop), it is perfect for professional and domestic use.

The Bosch GBH 240 F rotary hammer (code 0611273000) is designed to ensure high performance even in harsh conditions: the 790 W motor and 2.7 J impact energy ensure efficient and fast drilling even on concrete and hard materials.

The no-load speed varies from 0 to 930 rpm, while the impact rate can reach up to 4,200 bpm, allowing for fast and incisive work.

Thanks to the SDS-plus chuck with quick-release keyless chuck, changing bits is simple and tool-free, improving efficiency on the job site.

The compact and balanced body weighs only 2.9 kg—a contained weight that makes continuous use less tiring and guarantees good maneuverability even in confined spaces.

The included set comprises an auxiliary handle and depth stop, for better control during drilling and greater precision.

The GBH 240 F is built with an optimized gear scheme, which improves drilling speed and resistance in heavy-duty applications, making it a reliable and durable tool.

The GBH 240 F rotary hammer offers excellent value for money for a medium-sized power tool. We recommend using SDS PLUS drill bits with a diameter of up to 24mm. The selector with 3 modes allows you to choose between hammering, drilling, or drilling and hammering. Although this rotary hammer can chisel, it is not the right choice for those looking for a demolition tool. It remains an excellent choice for those looking for a fast and manageable tool for drilling.
