Sanding pad Festool IP-STF D150/MJ2-15/1 Width 145 mm Height 15 mm

The Festool IP-STF D150/MJ2-15/1 interface pad is designed for optimal insulation and improved sanding results on curved and finished surfaces. With a diameter of 145 mm and a height of 15 mm, the pad provides cushioning between the abrasive disc and the sanding backing pad, reducing the risk of oversanding at edges and enabling more even contact during finish-sanding and work on rounded components and furniture.

Advantages

The 15 mm thickness offers consistent cushioning to compensate for surface variations and protect edges from excessive material removal. Its 145 mm diameter matches common Festool sanding accessories, supporting stable handling and compatibility with multiple sanders. The pad improves finish quality by smoothing pressure distribution between abrasive and workpiece, making it suitable for both coarse shaping and final finish passes.

Suitable for

• Sanding significantly rounded components
• Finish-sanding after surfacer or filler
• Sanding furniture contours and profiles
• Work requiring reduced edge oversanding

Key specifications

• Diameter: 145 mm
• Height / thickness: 15 mm
• Function: interface/cushioning pad between abrasive disc and backing pad
• Typical use: hand-held and machine sanding for curved surfaces and finish work

How to use

Attach the interface pad to the compatible backing pad or sander according to the tool manufacturer's instructions, ensuring secure fit and alignment. Fit the abrasive disc to the pad and perform sanding with light to moderate pressure, allowing the pad's cushioning to conform to curved surfaces. For finish-sanding, use progressive finer grits while maintaining steady, overlapping passes to achieve an even surface without creating dips at edges.

Usage recommendations

For best results, combine the interface pad with compatible Festool sanding pads and abrasives, check compatibility with your sander model, and inspect the pad regularly for wear. Use appropriate grit progression for surfacer and final finish stages and avoid excessive pressure that can compress the pad unevenly.
