This RotoZip is by far one of the most versatile tools we’ve ever had the pleasure of using, and the manufacturer is always coming out with new attachments that add one more ability to this tool’s already impressive resume. RotoZip was founded in 1972, when a professional drywall contractor came up with a better way to cut drywall. From there, a system of tools and accessories grew, and Bosch bought the company in 2003, bringing all its attributes to an already fantastic product.
In this kit, you get the tool as well as the Zipmate and the circle cutter, which will get you started exploring everything this tool can do. Basically, the RotoZip is a rotary cutting tool, but with a wide range of bits and attachments, you can slice through just about any material up to an inch thick. The Zipmate that’s included here is a right-angle attachment that lets you use wheels instead of bits for an enormous range of materials, everything from concrete and brick to steel, iron, slate, and ceramic floor tile. The handle is great for additional control, but in most applications, the RotoZip is easy to use with just one hand around the tool body, too.
Because of the keyless collet system, bit change is tool-free, but adjusting the depth does require using a wrench.
Variable speed is trigger-controlled, with a range of 15,000 to 30,000 rpm, making this a favorite tool among electricians, plumbers, carpenters, tile installers and of course, the do-it-yourselfer. If you’re upgrading from an earlier version, you’ll love this – and if this will be your first RotoZip, be prepared
