Bosch's New Cordless Shear Maximizes Mobility and Access in Dozens of Applications
Bosch PS70 12V Max metal shear just made life simpler for lots of users!
Mount Prospect, Ill., October 9, 2009 - Metal trimming and cutting seldom takes place in convenient locations. Whether a contractor is installing metal roofing, trimming mantelpieces and flashing around chimneys or cutting HVAC vent pipes, working conditions always seem to be in the way. The steep pitch of a roof or the cramped quarters between flooring members aren't the most accommodating when it comes to manhandling large manual shears or simply trying to get a power cord to reach. Thanks to Bosch Power Tools & Accessories, the power needed to perform controlled, precise metal cutting is now available in a convenient cordless package.
The Bosch PS70 Metal Shear is built on the manufacturer's award-winning 12V Max Litheon battery platform. So users can expect fast charges, exceptional run-time and the best battery life in the industry, even in the most grueling sheet-metal cutting applications. This cordless metal shear isn't simply about convenience, however. Bosch's PS70 is packed with plenty of performance.
The PS70 effortlessly cuts sheet metals up to 18 gauge thickness. Very few of the power shears currently on the market can make such a claim. The competitor tools that even come close, are typically 3-4 times heavier and 50-60 percent more expensive. But power isn't the only measure of success for a metal shear. If the tool doesn't cut with precision and accuracy, it is often more trouble than it is worth.
The Bosch PS70 is the lightest (3 lbs.) and most compact (only 10" long) powered metal shear in its class, which translates to phenomenal maneuverability on the jobsite. Coupled with precision engineered cutting elements, such as Bosch's adjustable four-sided cutting blades, the PS70 is capable of cutting accurate holes as small as ˝" in diameter. The easy-to-adjust cutter clearance makes the tool versatile enough to perform both straight and curved cuts with equal precision.
The light weight of the tool, a comfortable ergonomic grip - featuring the only overmolded soft grip in the segment - and a top-mounted switch that facilitates ambidextrous control also reduce fatigue and keep users moving forward comfortably in all applications. An easy-to-see battery fuel gauge and a built-in chip deflector also keep users in control and safe on the jobsite.
The Bosch PS70 Cordless Metal Shear will be available through authorized dealers nationwide this fall. The tools comes complete with a charger, two batteries, a feeler gauge and an Allen key for quick adjustments. To find out more, users may visit www.boschtools.com or call 877-BOSCH-99.
