Description
Overview:
This Genuine Bosch ball is a small but critical internal component designed for heavy-duty Bosch demolition hammers, including the GSH 11 E and GSH11E. It helps transmit motion within the mechanism to keep the tool operating smoothly under load. Manufactured to Bosch standards for fit and finish, the ball is typically made from hardened, wear‐resistant steel to withstand repeated impact and abrasion in demanding site conditions. Using the correct OEM part maintains performance, reduces vibration caused by wear, and supports reliable operation during prolonged chiselling or breaking work. Ideal for routine servicing or repairs, this genuine replacement helps restore the tool to its intended performance without compromise, ensuring compatibility with Bosch housings, guides, and mating components inside the hammer assembly.
