Portable Electric Tools: Bosch MXH180 Brushless 18-Volt Oscillating Tool

Bosch Power Tools continues its innovation in the oscillating category with the debut of the 18-volt MXH180, the first oscillating tool with a brushless EC motor design. Part of the Bosch CORE system, the tool delivers up to three times longer life, 30 percent more power, 65 percent longer run time and integrated electronics for superior control and motor life. Available for purchase in August, the tool is engineered to provide corded power without the cord.

According to Bosch, the tool’s EC motor delivers best-in-class run time. Beyond runtime, the tool is lighter, has less vibration, minimal maintenance and extended motor life. It weighs 4.35 pounds with an 18-volt 4.0 amp-hour Fat Pack battery and measures 12-5/8 inches long.

The MXH180 is compatible with all generations of Bosch lithium-ion Fat and Slim Pack 18-volt batteries, and users can expect even more runtime with new BAT612 2.0 amp-hour and BAT620 4.0 amp-hour models.

With a variable speed ranging from 8,000 to 20,000 oscillations per minute (OMP), the tool can easily perform a wide range of applications, including cutting, sanding, grinding and scraping. Bosch Constant Response Circuitry allows the tool to maintain constant speed under a heavy load in more challenging applications.

In addition, the MXH180 includes the convenient Bosch toolless oscillating accessory change lever, making it easier and faster than ever to attach or reposition the wide array of Bosch Oscillating Interface System (OIS) accessories. The Bosch system does not require that any parts be removed and re-attached in the process. 

Reinforced gear housing helps cut down on tool vibration. In conjunction with the tool’s soft grip areas and small grip circumference, these features offer users better productivity with enhanced comfort.

The MXH180 will be available in August at authorized dealers nationwide as part of the MXH180BL kit. The kit comes complete with an L-Boxx storage case, Exact-Fit Tool Insert Tray and one accessory for a suggested retail price of $229.

Users can add their choice of batteries and chargers, which are sold separately and are interchangeable with all existing Bosch 18-volt cordless tools.

The SKC181-101 starter kit includes a charger and BAT620 4.0 amp-hour 18-volt lithium-ion battery for a suggested retail price of $99.
