Features

- Integrated pad brake to prevent scratches
- Long service life, especially in production shops

- Virtually no vibration
One of three new sanders from Festool utilizing the latest in brushless motor technology, the ETS EC 125/3 EQ changes the game for the compact finish sanders. The ETS EC 125/3 provides a high quality, swirl-free sanding finish with a random orbital 3mm stroke. The brushless motor provides a very long service life and enables the sander to be very low-profile, quiet and lightweight for improved ergonomics.
Well suited for production shops, the ETS EC 125 sander's brushless motor means that you have less power consumption and reduced heat, which results inless vent ducts for cooling and fewer points for infiltration of dust and debris. Variable speed allows you to control the speed of the sander and rate of material removal. With a custom milled counter balance, this sander has virtually no vibration which reduces fatigue and prevents tingly hands after extended periods of sanding. As with all Festool sanders, the ETS EC 125/3 has exceptional dust collection capabilities when paired with a Festool dust extractor.

No, there is no edge guide included or available for the ETS E 125.
No. A dust bag is not included.
The ETS EC 125 does not have Turbo Extraction integrated. Therefore, it doesn't create enough suction on its own to support use with a dust bag. It's recommended to use a dust extractor with this sander.
The sanders with a soft pad, Plug-it power cord, wrench for the pad and manual are included. Festool prohibits discounts for bundling with the sleeved hose.
No, the ETS EC 125/3 is not well suited for polishing since it's a random orbital sander. The ROTEX family of sanders or the SHINEX can be used for polishing since they have a gear-driven mode.
