The Bosch screwdriver is a very popular and common tool among similar devices. It is used both in construction and in various everyday situations that arise in everyday life.
Many who have had to assemble furniture or change a door lock at least once in their lives have faced the problem of choosing a screwdriver.
Any shop that sells electrical appliances has a wide selection of different models of this tool. There you can find a Bosch screwdriver, powered by electricity, as well as by a battery, with a voltage of 3.6 to 18 V.
When choosing a device, first of all, you should decide on the purpose of its use and the range of tasks. And based on this, select a tool with the required parameters.
The main characteristics of the battery device are the torque of the device and its rotational speed. For domestic purposes, it is enough to purchase a tool that hastorque from 10 to 20 Nm. Such a Bosch screwdriver will allow you to tighten even tight self-tapping screws.
Devices with higher performance are classified as professional. In such devices, the torque reaches 130 Nm. And they can be used as a drill.
The Bosch screwdriver, which will be used for tightening self-tapping screws, should have a rotation speed of about 400 rpm. To perform drilling, you will need a more powerful device with a speed of at least 1200 rpm. Most of the mains and battery models for comfortable work have adjustable speed.
The difference between consumer and professional devices lies in their power and battery life. Usually a serious tool is equipped with more powerful batteries. However, the Bosch household screwdriver will cope without problems with many ordinary situations. A professional tool should be purchased only if you are sure that the device is expected to have high loads.
When choosing a cordless Bosch screwdriver, you need to decide on the type of energy storage device used. Today, three types of batteries are used: lithium-ion, nickel-metal hydride and nickel-cadmium.
The last type is obsolete and designed for 1000 charge-discharge cycles. The second type of batteries is more modern, has a better weight-to-capacity ratio, and is used in devices in the middle price range. The most modern are lithium-ionenergy storage devices that are equipped with Bosch professional screwdrivers.
In addition to battery models, network models are also produced. The main disadvantage that the Bosch cordless screwdriver has is its attachment to the mains, as well as the limited range due to the cable. However, such devices have high torque, low weight and high reliability. When working with very hard materials, you should pay attention to this type of device. Also, when buying a screwdriver, you need to look at the convenience of using it, how it will lie in your hand, and its weight.
