Where It Fits

The Festool 492280 replaces a worn soft pad on M4-thread 5 inch Festool sanders. The soft density lets the abrasive follow light contours while still keeping flat panels even, so it is the everyday pad for finish sanding.

Who Uses It

Cabinet makers, furniture finishers, painters and renovation crews use a soft 5 inch pad for final sanding on bare wood, scuffing between coats and preparing primer. Keep a spare on hand so a worn hook face does not hold up a job.

Tips for Long Pad Life

Check the hook and loop face before each job. When the StickFix hooks wear down, discs start to shift or fly off and the scratch pattern suffers. Brush dust off the pad, store it flat and away from heat, and never run the sander without an abrasive fitted, because the hook face wears quickly against the work. Festool also advises that pad foam becomes brittle with age, so check the foam for wear before use.
