Festool ETSC 125 3,0 I-Set Cordless Eccentric Sander

At a Glance: 18 V cordless eccentric sander with 125 mm sanding pad, Bluetooth® Ergo battery technology and hybrid mains operation

The Festool ETSC 125 3,0 I-Set is a compact, cordless eccentric sander built for smooth, controlled sanding wherever cables and hoses get in the way. Designed for professional surface preparation, finishing, renovation and edge work, this one-handed sander gives you the freedom of cordless sanding with the balanced feel and sanding quality expected from Festool. The 18 V Bluetooth® Ergo battery pack works together with the brushless EC-TEC motor to deliver strong, consistent sanding performance, while the 125 mm StickFix sanding pad makes abrasive changes quick and easy.

Cordless freedom with Festool system performance

The ETSC 125 is made for mobile work on vertical surfaces, overhead areas, window frames, door frames, eaves, panels and smaller surfaces. Use it with the long-life chip collection bag for flexible dust control, connect it to a Festool mobile dust extractor for cleaner sanding, or swap the battery for the plug-it mains adapter when extended running time is needed.

Product highlights

Cordless mobility: Ideal for sanding where power cables and suction hoses are awkward, restrictive or not available.
Hybrid power option: Use the 18 V Ergo battery for cordless work or the mains adapter for continuous operation.
Bluetooth® dust extractor activation: The Bluetooth® Ergo battery can communicate with compatible Festool CLEANTEC extractors for automatic start-up.
Comfortable one-handed sanding: Compact design, low height and balanced handling make it suitable for vertical and overhead work.
Cleaner working: Works with the long-life chip collection bag or a Festool mobile dust extractor for improved dust management.
Edge protection: The PROTECTOR helps protect the sanding pad and nearby surfaces when sanding close to edges.

Extra Information

The ETSC 125 is part of Festool’s cordless compact sanding range and is designed for professional finishing work where mobility matters.
The Bluetooth® Ergo battery can trigger compatible Festool CLEANTEC mobile dust extractors automatically when the sander is switched on.
The long-life chip collection bag is useful for quick cordless sanding tasks when a dust extractor is not practical.
The plug-it mains adapter is especially handy for workshop use, longer sanding sessions or applications where unlimited runtime is preferred.
For best results, pair the sander with the correct Festool 125 mm abrasives for the material and required finish.

Pro Tips

Let the sander do the work. Pressing too hard can reduce sanding quality, slow dust extraction and shorten abrasive life.
Use lower speed settings for delicate coatings or heat-sensitive surfaces, and higher settings for faster material removal where suitable.
When sanding near edges, frames or panels, fit the PROTECTOR to help prevent accidental contact damage.
For cleaner finishing work, connect the sander to a Festool dust extractor instead of relying only on the chip collection bag.
Start with the correct grit sequence and avoid skipping too many grit steps if you want a clean, even finish.

How to Use

Select the correct 125 mm StickFix abrasive disc for the material and finish required.
Attach the abrasive disc neatly to the sanding pad, making sure the dust holes line up properly.
Fit the Bluetooth® Ergo battery pack for cordless use, or connect the plug-it mains adapter for continuous mains operation.
Attach the long-life chip collection bag or connect the sander to a compatible Festool dust extractor using the dust extraction connection.
Set the speed to suit the application, material and abrasive grit.
Place the sander flat on the workpiece before switching it on to help avoid swirl marks or edge digging.
Move the sander evenly across the surface with light pressure and overlapping passes.
Switch off the sander and allow the sanding pad to stop before lifting it from the workpiece.
Empty the chip collection bag regularly or check the dust extractor to maintain strong dust removal.

Better control and comfort: The low-profile, balanced design helps reduce fatigue during one-handed sanding.
Cleaner sanding results: Dust extraction support helps keep the workpiece clearer and improves working conditions.
Less rework: The PROTECTOR helps you sand close to frames, panels and edges with reduced risk of damaging adjacent surfaces.
More flexible runtime: Switch between battery power and mains operation depending on the job, site and working setup.

Safety

Wear eye, ear and dust protection when sanding, especially when working on coatings, paint, varnish or fine timber dust.
Use suitable respiratory protection and dust extraction when sanding materials that may create harmful dust.
Make sure the abrasive disc is correctly fitted and the sanding pad is in good condition before use.
Do not use excessive pressure. Keep the sander flat and controlled to avoid kick, swirl marks or surface damage.
Keep hands clear of the sanding pad while the tool is running.
Allow the sanding pad to stop completely before placing the machine down.
Use only compatible Festool batteries, chargers, accessories and abrasives.
Disconnect the battery or mains adapter before changing sanding pads, fitting accessories or cleaning the tool.
