FAQs
What is the difference between Festool sander 125 and 150?
The key difference between Festool sanders with 125 and 150 in their name refers to the diameter of their sanding pad. For example, the 125 indicates a 125mm (approx. 5inch) sanding pad, while the 150 indicates a 150mm (approx.6 inch) sanding pad.
What are some downfalls of using a random orbital sander?
While random orbital sanders are incredibly versatile and effective, they do have some limitations: They are quite big and may not be ideal for tight corners, they remove material quickly and can produce significant vibration and noise – which is why it is important to wear hearing protection.
What is the best 125 sander?
The Festool ETS125REQ sander is known for its exceptional dust collection, smooth operation, and fine finish. It’s a favorite among professionals and provides up to 25% greater material removal capacity than other sanders.
What is the difference between an orbital sander and a random orbital sander?
The difference lays between the way the sanding pad moves. A random orbital sandermoves in a simple, circular (orbital) motion, but a random orbital sander moves in both a (orbital) motion and a random pattern. An orbital sander is perfect for finishing, light sanding whilst a random orbital sander is more aggressive.
