Bosch UniversalChain 18: 18V Cordless Lightweight 20cm Compact Chainsaw Kit (inc. 1x 2.5Ah Battery & Charger)
The Bosch UniversalChain 18 brings effortless cutting control, cable-free mobility, and lightweight convenience straight to your seasonal property maintenance. Purpose-built for residential gardeners who find traditional chainsaws heavy, intimidating, or too loud, this compact electric saw completely transforms garden clearing chores. Weighing only 3kg with the battery attached, it drastically reduces operator fatigue across your arms, shoulders, and lower back, letting you comfortably manage overgrown garden borders, drop thick limbs, or prepare logs for winter fire pits without any petrol fumes or restrictive extension cords.
Tool-Free Bosch SDS System & Precision Cutting Telemetry
- Concentric Bosch SDS Tensioning: Skip the hassle of specialized screwdrivers and combination spanners. The integrated concentric SDS mechanical dial system allows you to adjust the tension of your cutting chain or swap out the guide bar completely by hand in a matter of seconds.
- Stabilizing Tip Protector Guide: Execute immaculate, splinter-free cuts with total structural control. The specialized nose guard tip protector features rugged steel gripping teeth that anchor securely into the underside of timber, providing a tight hold for clean undercuts with minimal branch damage.
- Automatic Chain Lubrication System: Keep your cutting gear running smoothly at maximum efficiency. The chainsaw features an automated internal oiling pump that continuously bathes the high-velocity Oregon chain during active operation, paired with a transparent viewing window to monitor oil levels at a glance.
Intelligent 18V POWER FOR ALL System Architecture
- Versatile Multi-Task Flexibility: Move seamlessly between distinct garden routines. The balanced design and optimized motor speed allow you to switch instantly from delicate fruit tree pruning to breaking down dense shrub waste and processing small firewood logs.
- Integrated LED Charge Status Panel: Say goodbye to surprise battery dropouts halfway through a log. The ergonomic cockpit features a highly visible onboard charge level indicator display, letting you manage your working timeline accurately.
- Perfectly Balanced Handheld Safety Grip: Engineered for absolute operational confidence. The chassis incorporates an ergonomic wrap-around front handle sleeve paired with a secondary hand guard shield and integrated safety lock-off switch to maximize user protection.

The intelligent battery fully charges in just 60 minutes (or hits a rapid 80% capacity in a quick 40 minutes) and is chemically optimized to retain its charge during winter storage. This shared energy network means you can fluidly swap the single battery cell across a vast range of matching domestic home and garden power tools, as well as cross-brand alliance partner hardware, saving you significant time, money, and workshop storage space.

Bosch was created in 1886 in Stuttgart, Germany by Robert Bosch who formed the business to specialise in the manufacture of electronic components. The 'Workshop for Precision Mechanics and Electrical Engineering' as he originally called it, has since become one of the biggest and best-known manufacturers of both domestic and industrial products in the world. Bosch have always had a willingness to improve on their already established designs, right from day one. It's this ethos, which has allowed Robert Bosch GmbH and Bosch Garden Tools to maintain the enviable place in the market they hold today.
Their expertise is very apparent in their present range of lawn mowers and garden tools as it includes products, which no other garden machinery manufacturer produces. The Rotak electric and cordless lawn mowers demonstrate the company's willingness to innovate with features like grass combs that enable you to mow right up to the lawn's edge and rechargeable lithium-ion batteries that have virtually no weakened performance after extended use.
Bosch handheld power tools like grass trimmers, hedge trimmers, leaf blowers and chainsaws all offer the latest reliable German technology, together with a range of highly innovative features to keep your garden looking its best. There is no doubt that if a gardening tool can be improved upon then Bosch will already be working on it.
