Description
The Festool ETS EC 125/3 EQ-Plus is a professional-grade 5-inch random orbital finishing sander designed for fine surface preparation and finish sanding in woodworking, cabinetry, and finishing applications. This model belongs to Festool’s EC-TEC brushless motor series and is engineered for high efficiency, low vibration, and consistent surface results. The tool shown is labeled ETS EC 125/3 EQ and is manufactured in Germany. The unit is presented in its original Festool Systainer T-LOC storage case with detachable power cord and documentation.
This sander utilizes a 400-watt EC-TEC brushless motor designed to deliver consistent power with minimal heat generation and extended service life compared to traditional brushed motors. The ETS EC 125/3 configuration features a 3 mm sanding stroke, which is optimized for fine finish sanding and surface preparation between coats. Variable speed control is integrated into the housing, allowing the operator to adjust the orbital speed for different materials and abrasive grits. The compact low-profile body positions the motor close to the sanding surface to improve control and reduce fatigue during extended operation.
Construction includes a reinforced composite housing and a precision-balanced sanding pad assembly designed to minimize vibration and maintain stable pad rotation under load. The 5-inch hook-and-loop sanding pad accepts standard 125 mm Festool and compatible abrasives. Integrated dust extraction is provided through the rear dust port, allowing connection to Festool dust extractors for efficient debris removal and improved sanding visibility. The ergonomic top grip and symmetrical body design allow both one-handed and two-handed operation depending on the application.
Included with the tool is the Festool Systainer T-LOC storage case, detachable Festool plug-it power cord, and original documentation as shown. Based on the photographs provided, the tool appears to show little to no evidence of prior use, with the sanding pad and housing surfaces remaining clean and intact.
