Bosch GHE 18V-50 Professional Solo Cordless Hedge Trimmer, 500 mm, 18 V

The Bosch GHE 18V-50 Professional Solo Cordless Hedge Trimmer is a battery-powered model for maintaining hedges and shrubs in domestic gardens and on professional landscaping jobs. Its 500 mm cutting length and 23 mm tooth spacing suit both longer hedge faces and more detailed shrub work. The single-sided blade is rated for branches up to 20 mm thick, and a specialised sawing function supports cutting at that upper capacity when denser growth is encountered.

Weighing 2,600 g without a battery, the operating weight varies depending on the compatible battery pack fitted. A balanced body and an ergonomic soft-grip handle are designed for comfort during longer trimming sessions. Power is supplied by a removable rechargeable Li-ion battery, so compatible packs can be swapped between jobs. As a Solo version, it is sold without a battery or charger, and both are required separately.

A brushless motor delivers consistent operation while reducing the wear associated with brushed designs. The patented Anti-Blocking System helps prevent the blade from stalling when it meets resistant growth. The trimmer is compatible with both the Bosch Professional 18V System and AMPShare batteries, making it suitable for owners of either platform. Its cordless design removes the need for a trailing mains cable when working along boundaries or across larger outdoor areas.
