The industry values high performance and efficiency to get the job done. To meet the tough demands of the metalworking industry, Bosch is introducing 11 single-arm angle grinder models that offer well-proven user-friendliness and optimum user protection, along with clearly increased productivity. New grinders with 1,300 or 1,700 watt motor will provide an increase in efficiency compared to previous models.

Bosch single-handed angle grinders. Increased productivity due to faster working speed
– More power with 1300 and 1700W motors
– Long life due to motor cooling and dust protection
– 50% longer carbon brushes life
– High user protection
In addition, these tools feature optimized characteristics to increase tool life: the ventilation slots have been modified so that, due to their reduced size, a special air flow is generated, which reliably protects the motor from dust and ensures its effective cooling. Testing by SLG Prü f- und Zertifizierungs GmbH” confirm that the carbon brushes in their tools have a service life that is up to 50 percent longer than that of competitor models. As a consequence, carbon brushes do not need to be replaced frequently, which means time and money are saved.
Optimal conformity with safety standards
Bosch single-hand angle grinders are fitted with complete safety equipment and therefore satisfy the ever more stringent safety requirements. The safety equipment includes Vibration Control, Kick-Back-Stopp function, soft start and protection against unintentional start-up. Models with an integrated electronic brake system Intelligent Brake System are also available.
These properties make the new tools ideal for applications with high safety requirements, such as industrial production, crane and ship building, tank and container construction and oil refineries and oil platforms.
To allow professionals to tackle every task with ease, all the new angle grinder models offer well-proven advantages, such as the tool-free adjustable deflector, the ergonomic handle shape and the large spindle lock button for easy and fast accessory changes.
The right tool for every application
The available models of single-handed angle grinders are divided into the following application areas
- For consistent performance even in difficult applications, such as blasting steel pipes and profiles, the models GWS 13-125 CI Professional, GWS 17-125 CI Professional and GWS 17-150 CI Professional are available. With integrated brake system, these tools are available as the GWS 13-125 CIX Professional and GWS 17-125 CIX Professional.
- The models GWS 13-125 CIE Professional and GWS 17-125 CIE Professional are suitable for machining different materials, such as concrete, stone and ceramic tiles, which require different accessories and a preset RPM. The GWS 13-125 CIEX Professional and GWS 17-125 CIEX Professional are also available with Intelligent Brake System.
- For machining sensitive materials such as stainless steel, the GWS 17-125 CIT Professional and the GWS 17-125 Inox Professional are available. Both models feature low speeds along with high torque for gentle material handling.
1300/1700 W single-handed angle grinders are available from specialist retailers. Bosch also offers a wide range of accessories. Cutting wheels and diamond discs, roughing and flap discs, brushes, diamond core bits and extraction hoods.
