Bosch Professional laser measure GLM 50 C (data transfer via Bluetooth, 360° inclination sensor, range: 0.05–50 m, 2 x 1.5 V batteries, protective bag)

Product Information

When it comes to measuring tools, it’s true you have a vast array of products and power tool manufacturers to choose from. However, for me, I think there is really only one option and that is Bosch.

The Bosch GLM 50 C is powered by two included AAA batteries that will take up to 10,000 measurements before they need to be changed. The Bosch GLM 50 C can take a wide range of measurements including real-time length, length, area, volume and indirect. There is also a digital level and more. The built-in inclinometer allows for advanced features like angles, min/max, stake out and double indirect.

Customer reviews

As with the other Bosch LDM we have tested over the years, the GLM 50 C is so easy to use, set up and navigate. The two compatible laser measures connect with the app via Bluetooth allowing a simple exchange of data and smart documentation of measurements. The keypad is simple to operate and will allow you to control a multitude of functions such as on/off, measuring, menu, Bluetooth connectivity and the location of measurement. The Bosch GLM 50 C offers a more sophisticated design with multiple functions and an accuracy of +/- 1.5mm. These functions include: Area, volume, an inclinometer in addition to indirect height and distances up to 50 metres. Bluetooth connectivity allows simple exchange of measured values via the Measuring Master app. The illuminated rotating interface offers ease of use, making this diverse laser measure simple to use.

The Bosch GLM 80 extends to 80 metres with an accuracy of +/- 1.5mm. Although functions are similar to the GLM 50 C, this laser measure differentiates itself due to the 360° This laser measure is optimal for documentation, calculating material needs, room and wall areas, and placing plus fitting elements, making it ideally suited for architects, electricians, and many other professions. Additional InformationHaving created an image or plan in the app, the Bosch GLM 50 C Professional or Bosch GLM 120 C Professional can be used to add precise measurement values of the workplace. But the devices also have their own built-in suite of measuring capabilities, including calculation of height from distances and angles, wall area function, measuring gradients and many more intelligent features. The Bosch GLM 40 professional provides measurement accuracy of +/- 1.5mm for distances up to 40 metres. The GLM 40 not only measure distances, but also calculates the area and volume, offering multi-functional usage. The continuous measurement function allows the addition and subtraction of numerous measurements, allowing simple and easy calculations. The Bosch GLM 40 Professional offers versatility without any complexity. The Bosch GLM 50 C is their mid-range LDM, well at least that is my take on it. Anyone looking for an LDM that does all the major applications of an LDM and has Bluetooth, this is the LDM to own. This LDM has a range of up to 165′. The Laser Measure GLM 50 C Professional is the smart solution for measuring and documenting. Thanks to Bluetooth® connectivity, measurements are conveniently transferred to the Bosch MeasureOn App for smart documentation. It also features a broad range of measuring functions, including a stake-out function and a 360° tilt sensor for easy angle measurements and levelling applications. The tool's simple user interface and illuminated rotating colour display provide easy handling and good readability during use. Equipment & Application Bosch is known for a wide range of power tools such as concrete tools, cordless tools, oscillating tools and more. But one major tool they are well known for across the industry is their LDM’s.
