Inside Daniel's Drill: Clutch, Gears, and Hammering
Episode 5053
Published 1 month ago
Description
Daniel bought a Bosch GSB 120 LI and noticed its three settings feel like three different machines — but look identical from the outside. We crack open the mechanics to explain what's really happening inside: a slipping clutch for screwdriving, a locked gearbox for drilling, and a pair of ratcheting cam plates that hammer forward 22,500 times per minute for masonry. We also clear up the most common confusion in cordless tools: hammer drills punch forward, impact drivers punch rotationally, and they are not the same tool.
