Repairing a bunch of Bosch GSH11E Hammers , number 4 is a shocker.

- Had a large amount GSH 11 E hammers in for repair this week, so I thought I would do a Bosch GSH11E Repairathon today.
If said it before, and I'll say it again. These are some of the best and most reliable hammers ever made. Bosch has been making this model for 20 years and is still making it today.
Every tradesman here in Ireland must have an 11E in their van.
These are that common and popular that I'm not all that surprised there are copy ones out there.
Number 4 was a first for me, iv never seen a copy bosch hammer before, let alone one as convincing as this one.
But it's obviously isn't cappible of much work if it has broken after such little work.
Let me know what you all think of this one tool dedicated video. If you like it, I'll try to do more than the opportunity comes up.

I feel it's been a productive day having watched an extended session of repairs. Cold and miserable outside, cup of tea and an easy chair - all is well in my chaotic unpredictable world.
Not Dean (obviously) but cheers mate.
Long format videos are the best. Your work cannot be boring in any way. Your content is so very educational that it is helping a lot of people (including myself) when it comes to fixing tools. I personally have rented a GSH11E in the past at a cost of 15-20 EUR per day. Last month I bought a used machine that needed a service kit installed and I would have never been able to repair it if it wasn't for your videos. Now I have an excellent machine for a total of 300 EUR with plenty of life left.
Thank you!
90 minutes passed like a few minutes, keep up the good work!
Thanks, Dean. I truly do enjoy watching these extended-length videos. It was a treat to see multiples of the same item. Thanks for taking us through that counterfeit unit and showing us what to look for. You've definitely got a fan in Houston, TX USA. Cheers!
I really like the longer videos. Nice and calm, showing me how my tools work. Thank you for making them.
Great Saturday night viewing, loved it.
Love the fact that you diagnosed the speed issue on number five even without opening her up. Great explanation of the harmonics involved in the hammer action. Love it
Interested in customer feedback when you told them it was a fake hammer. Please keep us posted.
If theyvdont already know, I Don't think they will care in the slightest
Definitely not boring, very informative and well explained. Thank you for the advice in advance I may need.
Seeing several of the same type of machine with different faults or issues is helpful, I'm starting to know my way around the unit. The Knock Off was a real eye opener. Your diagnosis and explanation is what I enjoy most.
Just discovered your channel Dean... and I am addicted! I just wish these had been available 40 years ago when I started using tools.
Best Wishes from Armagh, Brendan.
Really like the longer videos and enjoyed learning about the fake Bosch. Please keep the long vids coming
Best hammers ever made, works for decades.
A 100% success rate! Great job and well explained.
Long format with multiple repairs works well.
Bosch hammers are the best if you ask me.. Especially the older models.
I have an old USH 10. It’s 30+ years old and still hammering. Not as powerful as the newer models, and it’s quite heavy, but it keeps hammering 🙂 Got it serviced last year at a Bosch dealer, and they said it was like new inside.
Thanks for the videos. I REALLY enjoy everyone of them.
Genius bearing puller!
Brilliant explanation about how the hammer action relies on harmonics to work efficiently, totally made sense to me. Also nice how you explained that the speeds are stepped and “tuned” great stuff 👍🏻
Im really liking the longer videos
Thankyou Dean, your experience on these units is invaluable. I do mainly Milwaukee even rebuild the batteries and repair the chargers.
Have you done a video of rebuilding a battery?
No but there are a number on YT. It is not free because the batteries are about $50 for 10. Board is about $5.00 and then labour. About 75- $100 per battery. This is less than 1/2 price where I live. @@hemtet5500
Your videos are always engaging, you're a mine of information! Interesting to see how fakes can be spotted, I probably wouldn't notice and could easily end up with one, I know better now.
Again good work and great to watch 👍👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Nice lengthy video there Dean. Threw a spanner in the works with that counterfeit, it was a very interesting addition.
I bet when you get those copies in it really peeves you off. Especially if troubleshooting leads you to stripping the whole thing down.
Do you mostly refuse counterfeits or give the customer the benefit of the doubt and do the best you can with compatible parts?
Keep that content coming Dean and we'll keep "hammering" 😅🙄 that like like button.
I try to fix everything that comes in unless the cost is to high
Did the customer know his Bosch was tosh...😂
thankyou Dean for the videos i have a hikoki grinder i took it apart to cleaan and replace the brushes and it would not go back together i watched your video and fixed it. all the best ron the pom in new zealand
Absolutely captivating Dean keep em coming.
Thanks, will do!
Detective Doherty, great to watch,informative ,well explained, and I enjoy the. Longer videos, thanks again,
Hello, i think we all want more vidéos like this one, hi from France
Nice video ... learned a lot about real bosch n a fake thank u 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Glad you liked it
Great to see an analysis of a cheap Bosch ersatz knockoff. I find that there are many channels out there singing praises for knockoffs yet few if any do reliability and longevity tests.
excellent video, good repairs too
Hello Brother! I just discovered your channel. I appreciate you with very useful information. good luck.👍👏👏
Welcome aboard!
Very nice video Dean.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks 👍
51:50 2010 badge is probably just someone copying it once then and never updating it.
Thank You for sharing, You make it look so easy and if i could afford these machins it would be so helpfull
Brilliant, Thanks Dean, it was really interesting to see the difference between the fake and real product
Bosch was the best back in the 70's & 80's when it was all made in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
I feel like they made loads of copies in 2010 and some online / person is selling them as genuine
Like the long content Dean thanks for sharing 🦘
that was great
Torx. With an X. You’re killing me, man. ❤
I've seen plenty of fake makitas for sale at boot sales you can normally tell easily two pins not three on the battery connector no nylon bumpers and no name plate I have a small brushless grinder I got from ebay first one lasted a week but the replacement is still working 4 years later ( light use) I also have a genuine makita and to look at them they look like they were made in the same factory
They probably were...
That fake machine just goes to show the huge differences between a well made machine and a piece of junk.
Some of the fakes take a well-trained eye; Mitutoyo digital caliper fakes quickly come to mind
@@jamesriordan3494 So true, if some of these companies that are making these fakes actually made a little more effort, they could actually make a really good product 😅
@@gutsngorrrr I am wondering the same thing, the amount of time and effort to make a copy of bosch is not all that different, from making a proper off-brand machine with decent quality.
It's the little things that really add to the cost of a tool. Metal instead of plastic, cheeper plastic, cheep fasteners, and little or no heat treatment make a shorter lifespan of the tool. Many big name companies do it for the diy market. Use it once and a while and you're okay. Use it every day and it's junk.
A testament to Bosch that some arse holes are willing to go to great lengths to fake them.
On that ringer Bosch the labels appear to be the same as 2023/4 brand new ones.
I get the feeling he's repaired tools before.
Fascinating as always. Interesting that the speed controller on the knockoff unit was genuine Bosch - come on - who ordered a thousand Bosch speed controllers as spares? There's the crooks!
Nice video.I thought that you would just dump the copy Bosch drill but since you fixed it was really educative.The Chinese look alike tools are everywhere
I wonder if that fake was sold to some unsuspecting buyer as a "used machine from 2010" but was brand new off the lines in China. It's kinda impressive how many shades of blue they got going on.
If you have tips on how to spot other fakes. Please let us know. 🇺🇸
Good forensics on the Bosch hammer. I’ve seen a Chinese guy making a copy Makita impact driver and he used a colour printer to make the actual label . Totally wrong even to look at.
I’d be interested to know what the customer said when you told them?
Some of this older stuff seems so much better Much simpler to repair and keep running right We ALL!!!! should boycott the new stuff that's made hard to or unrepairable!!!!!!!!!
GRIND DOWN YOUR BIT LOL YOU ALL READY KNOW THAT TRICK LOL
Get yourself a knipex ergo strip for stripping those flexes it’s so much easier and quicker than using a knife just be careful buying the left/right handed one
That plug you uesd is fused. Never see that here in Canada
Yes our 240 volt 1amp household plugs have a 3amp, 5amp or 13amp fuse depending on what it's powering. They are one of the safest plugs in the world.
Machine 4made of Chineseium 😂, your channel is brilliant Dean, love your content 👍👍👍👍👍♥️♥️
A little difficult to put in.......slides in ..... a little twist.. done!
the plumber i worked for had a gsh 11244E that wasnt hammering properly. I never saw it functioning "properly" as they had it siting in storage long before i started working for them. But i elected to take it apart to see if I could fix it, cus theyre expensive tools. Its assembled fairly differently, the gsh11e seems to be much more modular. Never did figure out out what was wrong. Looked through the gearbox and motor and couldnt find any errant wear on the parts. They claimed it wasnt hammering as "forcefully" as expected, but who knows. I reassembled and it seemed fine to me. Kinda random to be recommended this video so long after
Most likely it need just clean, replace o rings, regrease and it would be fine
Probably a hammer and piston parts problem; they have these plastic/rubber rings as also shown in this vid on the fake GSH-11. If those dry out or wear down the compression won't work properly, making the machine lose hammering power.
Never seen a fake Bosch before, very interesting thanks
I've seen the shop tour video, what percentage of your repairs use old stock vs new? Are you left with a lot of dead stock? I'll prolly never touch one of those tools in my life, but something very satisfying about watchin them be repaired, plus added knowledge to do it my self.
PB Swiss bits next?
Anyone skip to the 4th or nah watch them all?
Nice video, do you inform the customer that they have a cheap knock off tool? Just curious. Thanks
No, didn't have a contact number for them. It was dropped in by someone else.
Great content as usual Dean....very educational. If I may ask a question please. I purchased a Toughbuilt Scraper knife after seeing you with it. In this video, you seemed to have a cartridge of blades within the body that allows for quick change. Any chance you could do a short video on how this works.. Thanks
No that's a different toughbuilt knife again. One is the scraper knife and the other is the quick load. The quick load is only a utility knife, it dosent function as a scraper
Someone went to much to make that counterfeit BoschHammer.
Did the customer know it was fake?
Don't know, it was sent in from another hardware shop. So I wasn't talking to the actual owner
Dean, what ferrules do you use?
I can't believe you repaired the fake! Its technically an illegal item.
😮
Do you have an online shop of used or repaired tools?
Hello Dean, it is surprising how quickly you repair and diagnose a breakdown in power tools, they are very entertaining and enriching videos. I have a question for you, what type of bit do you mount on the drill to disassemble the casings? Phillips Ph2 extra long? greetings.
On that bocsh seen that before. Its a rebuild not OEM. You get the outisde caseing with it. See that in the states allot. Try to get around the cost of what a new part would be direct from bosch. OEM parts for some machines are cost prohibitive here. So you either throw the whole thing away or you buy aftermarket parts for half the price. Again see it allot here in the states.
That's was not a rebuild, aside from the speed controler every part was a replica
Hello Dean
How did you start repairing tools , is it just you or do people work for you ?
Hammer #4 is more or less a toy, ya think?
Dean, where do you get your long drill driver bits from? i have tried every where for them. les
Hi Dean . Whats the tool you use for the bootlace ferrules ? It looks like a pliers/cutters/ferrule combo , maybe Wiha.
I like them tight lol 😆 😂
Is their any good news with that mashing
What does one say to the customer when you have to do this repair, with these expectations for wear of the machine.
We used to call this type of fake a 'fourth shift product', use the customers own tooling but cheaper materials and reduce the amount of in production finishing.
Some of the factories at least have the decency to put their own brand stickers on so you know it's a copy and can pay the appropriate price. This one looks like it may have been sold at near full price. If you're going to pay for the brand you may as well go to a registered dealer and get what you've paid for.
ج❤❤❤ممتاز
you broke the no 1 rule. dont ever say i wont need that. almost guaranteed to need it straight away. you jynxed your self
i like the long videos. rather a spread of diferent tools but it was interesting to see several examples of a heavy use tool that needs very little repair to keep going.
the fake was intereting. i wonder what the owner thinks about that. you should ask them and come back to us. i bet they are mad and didnt know
😊❤
Meditation time.
1 shout out please 😢
La qualité de bosch à peut être baissé entre les vieux modèle de 30 ans et le dernier de 10ans sinon toujours aussi interressant
Any chance that “fake” is a bad refurb unit using poor quality replacement parts etc? In the IT industry we always see “refurb” units come in with countless fake parts and bodges inside. Not too dissimilar.
It seemed too accurate and clearly based on age reliable to be a clear cut knock off or fake
the only legit part in it was the speed control though. nobody refurbs a unit with 100% of the moldings and castings.
If its too cheap its wrong
That fake was interesting to see how they changed materials. No engineering involved per-se just reused the same tooling with whatever materials would be cheapest to make.
Being from the us. Its weird to see a tool run at 240. The only things here running a 240 are an electric stove, water heater, welder, and some furnaces. Otherswise everything is all 110. And the fact i never see a ground wire surprises me. Everything here has a ground wire.
These are classed as double insulated so no need for a ground
Just put two fingers into the socket 😂 Once you come to and your hair stops smoking you know your power socket is A-OK, unlike your eyebrows.
You don't repair hilti? or they don't need repair?
I'm refusing to work on hilti tools now. To much trouble. Plus I can see a massive hilti problem coming shortly. So I staying clear.
I'm not overworking myself for hilti when they won't even fix thier own tools.
The fake one was probably sold as new old stock at a cheaper price
I think they downloaded some parts diagrams of a GSH11 and went shopping on Alibaba 😂 Put them all together and thats your fake Boschhammer.
Well if that speed controller had gone in a Milwaukee it would cost as much as a new tool.
Got a Milwaukee M18 Circular with electronic circuit gone & M18 Surge impact with controller gone & neither worth fixing as new tool costs the same.
Absolute joke.
Tell me about it
That sexton Blake (fake) machine was probably made in India because I watch Indian manufacturing videos on here and when ever they need grease in anything it's always the blue grease they use.
first time seeing fake that tipe of bosch hammer.( for having original speed controler- maybe fake one already was replaced- cheep ones do not last) for my expierence fake ones whit original names are worst ones.fake whit different names tend be better in guality. bosch brand has good quality hammers and parfurators - one of the best - so no siurprise there are copy of them. GBH 2-26 has most copy i seen.
The fake machine is fascinating… the amount of effort gone to.. how much are they saving on each machine making the fake? The tolerances are so poor and the quality of metal, it’s a disaster really.
There was such a rush to get into the Chinese market in the early/mid 2000’s that little oversight was put in place. Many manufacturers would build components then offer workers overtime hours, they would then work through the night making fakes using most of the same machinery.
That impact drive you are using should be called the screw head destroyer
Not in the hands of a professional such as Dean. You obviously didn't notice that he uses the clutch settings appropriately.
Ive used a Makita Impact to mount junction boxes before the trigger is so fine on low you drive the screw in, give it one singular impact hit and thats equal to a screwdriver.
That fake ones is melting the sowich in 3 months I can't find the reason 😅 every 3 months he is coming for sowich 😂😂 don't buy
