Bosch combi means end of the corded drill?
The corded drill may be on its way out if the new cordless 36v Bosch combi is as good as carpenter and joiner Martin Saunders claims it is.
The GEX 125-1 AE has an integral dust extraction unit in the form of the Bosch micro-filter, capable of retaining even the smallest particles.
The system provides over 80 per cent dust collection and its transparent dust box allows the user to see how full it is at any time.
With the dust box removed - a simple operation achieved through a practical turn-lock - the user can attach the tool to a vacuum cleaner without having to bother with an adaptor.
A setting wheel allows easy control of the sander's speed, allowing the user to select the appropriate speed for the application.
This is especially important, for example, when working on painted surfaces.
The sanding plate diameter is 125 mm and is made of temperature-resistant, white foam designed to last four to five times longer than conventional plates.
This also applies to the structure of the Velcro-type fastening material that repels dirt for longer, thus retaining its adhesion characteristics.
The GEX 125-1 AE is available through all Bosch registered stockists at a SSP of GBP69.99 ex VAT.
Customers can register the sander for a three-year warranty online by visiting the website.
