At a Glance: Premium 225 mm P100 abrasives with a flexible 3.5 mm foam backing for sanding soft fillers and achieving high-quality Q3 and Q4 finishes.
Festool Granat Soft D225 P100 abrasive discs are designed to produce beautifully even results when sanding completely filled walls and ceilings. Developed for the PLANEX 225 EQ and PLANEX LHS-E 225 easy long-reach sanders, each disc combines premium Granat abrasive with a soft, adaptable foam backing. This flexible construction follows subtle surface contours and distributes sanding pressure evenly, helping prevent deep scratches and unwanted sanding marks on extremely soft ready-made fillers. The P100 grit provides efficient material removal during intermediate surface preparation, while the StickFix attachment enables quick and convenient abrasive changes. Supplied as a pack of 25 discs, this professional abrasive is ideal for painters, decorators and drywall installers working towards demanding Q3 and Q4 surface-quality standards.
The adaptable foam-backed construction conforms to slight surface irregularities for controlled, consistent sanding. Granat abrasive technology delivers dependable removal performance, a long service life and effective dust transportation when used with a compatible PLANEX sander and dust extractor.

Extra Information
- Designed for the Festool PLANEX 225 EQ and PLANEX LHS-E 225 easy long-reach sanders.
- Use the abrasive with a compatible sanding pad and correctly configured dust-extraction system.
- The soft foam backing is intended to adapt to filled surfaces; excessive pressure may reduce this benefit and create uneven results.
- Select the abrasive grit according to the filler manufacturer&s recommendations and the required finish level.
- Replace the disc when cutting performance drops, the abrasive becomes clogged or the backing is damaged.
Pro Tips
- Allow filler to cure fully before sanding and test the P100 abrasive on a small, inconspicuous area first.
- Let the abrasive and the flexible foam backing do the work; use light, even pressure to reduce the chance of grooves or low spots.
- Keep the sanding head moving with overlapping passes to create a consistent surface across large walls and ceilings.
- Use continuous dust extraction and check that the disc openings are correctly aligned with the sanding system.
- Inspect the surface under angled work lighting between sanding stages, as side lighting makes scratches, ridges and remaining imperfections easier to identify.
- Change clogged discs promptly rather than applying additional pressure, which can overheat or mark soft filler.
How to Use
- Confirm that the filler is fully cured and suitable for machine sanding.
- Disconnect or switch off the sander before fitting the abrasive disc.
- Inspect the sanding pad and remove any dust or debris that could prevent secure attachment.
- Centre the Granat Soft disc on the compatible StickFix sanding pad and align the extraction openings correctly.
- Connect the PLANEX sander to a suitable Festool mobile dust extractor and select an appropriate extraction setting.
- Begin with light pressure and sand using smooth, overlapping passes while keeping the sanding head in motion.
- Regularly inspect the abrasive and workpiece, replacing the disc when worn, clogged or damaged.
- After sanding, remove residual dust and inspect the surface before applying the next coating or finishing stage.
Safety
- Wear suitable eye, respiratory and hearing protection during sanding operations.
- Use a compatible mobile dust extractor and ensure all extraction connections are secure before starting work.
- Dust from fillers, coatings and previously treated surfaces may be harmful; identify the material and follow its safety instructions.
- Do not sand materials containing asbestos, lead or other hazardous substances unless authorised controls and specialist procedures are in place.
- Disconnect the sander from its power source before fitting, adjusting or replacing an abrasive disc.
- Do not use discs that are torn, excessively worn, contaminated or incorrectly attached.
- Keep the work area ventilated and dispose of collected sanding dust according to local regulations.
