Share this story

Festool, a leader in innovative, precision-engineered and durable power tool solutions, has announced the first-of-its kind cordless random orbit sander with integrated LED lights, the ETCS 2 125/150. The next-generation sander, new accessories, and limited-edition offerings deliver powerful and portable solutions for professional tradespeople.   “We developed this new line-up of products with one goal: to simplify the tools professionals need to bring on the job,” said Philip Strnad, director of brand marketing at Festool. “The cordless random orbit sander solves two common jobsite challenges – poor visibility and limited mobility – without compromising on power or quality. Paired with our new accessories, these products are designed to elevate how professionals navigate the jobsite from beginning to end.”   
The first battery-powered, one-handed random orbit sander with an integrated light gives users a clear view of the surface, making it easy to spot uneven areas. The built-in LED light is customizable with three modes: full brightness, 50 per cent dimmed, or off.
Features include: 
- No cords, no limits: Designed for virtually dust-free sanding, anywhere. The ETSC 2 features a dust collection bag to help keep the workspace clean while providing complete freedom of movement. It offers hassle-free sanding with no suction hose to slow down the work.   
- Low-profile comfort: The sander is designed to fit comfortably in a user’s hand. For flat surfaces or overhead work, the optimized ergonomics let users work close to the surface or in tight spaces without compromising on control. Built-in vibration protection helps to reduce fatigue so users can work longer with less strain. 
- Seamless compatibility, secure protection: It’s powered by a 4.0 Ah battery to deliver fast results and is compatible with 18V cordless tools and chargers. The specially designed Protector ensures quick, precise sanding near edges while helping to prevent damage.  

Systainer accessory sets: Speed and confidence across applications 
The new Systainer accessory sets are designed for compact organization and populated with high-performance options for the shop and jobsite,
They include: 
- Forstner drill bit set: A five-piece set for Festool cordless drills.
- Ratchet set: Includes 19 different bit inserts and 2-bit extensions, plus various adapters and extensions. 
- Anchor set: Designed for the Systainer Rack, the anchor set includes various sizes of DuoPower anchors and DuoBlade plasterboard anchors.  

Integrated Enhancements: Flawless surfaces & added cleanliness 
- RD-CT dust extractor wheel covers: The new accessory for dust extractors (CT 26/36/48) provides added protection for delicate surfaces. Users can quickly add to the wheels without impacting the maneuverability of the tool.
- GRANAT starter set: The latest GRANAT starter set offers a selection of abrasives to cover all Festool 5” (D125) sanders.
