The unrivaled original for more than 30 years: The ROTEX RO 150 with three tools in one for coarse sanding, fine sanding, and polishing. Do more with just one tool for an extremely high material removal rate during coarse sanding, a super-fine result when fine sanding, and a perfect finish when polishing. Festool has gone to great lengths to design sanders, accessories, and abrasives that work seamlessly as a system, resulting in nearly dust-free operation, low vibration, longer service life, and, of course, an immaculate surface.
• FastFix sanding pad system for tool-free changes
• Random orbit motion for high-quality, scratch-free surfaces
• Sanding up to the edge thanks to the Festool Protector
• Ideal ergonomic grip positions
• ROTEX gear-driven rotary motion for efficient material removal
Features:
• Three tools in one. With the ROTEX, you can do three jobs without switching tools: coarse sanding, fine sanding, and polishing. Just flip the switch, and you're good to go.
• The powerful, gear-driven rotary and eccentric motion removes material very quickly and efficiently.
• The classic random orbit motion provides smooth, high-quality results—perfect for in-between or finish sanding.
• The ROTEX rotary motion combined with Festool polishes and polishing sponges produce gleaming results without heating the surface significantly.
• The ROTEX RO 150 feels good in your hand, no matter how you hold it. The housing is narrow and compact and it is well-balanced. Designed and optimized for low vibration for even greater sanding comfort.
• Sand right up to edges without kickback with the Festool Protector.
• The sanding pad brake helps to control pad rotation to help prevent the surface being scratched and helps to eliminate the need for rework.
• The large internal contact surface provides a generous bearing surface to help the sander run smoothly by helping to reduce imbalances and vibrations.
• Quick pad changes with the FastFix system—no tools needed. You can swap out pads fast for different jobs and materials making you ready for any job.
• Great finishes come from the details. StickFix makes changing sandpaper quick and easy—and it holds tight and stays in place.
• The patented MULTI-JETSTREAM system pulls in dust while you sand. That helps to keep the area clean and helps your tool, pad, and abrasives last longer.
• Pair it with a Festool CT dust extractor for a cleaner jobsite. They are compact, lightweight, and work great with the RO 150.
• Just pop off the dust channel, and you can polish every inch—nothing gets in the way.
• Use just the random orbit motion for smooth sanding. Use the gear-driven rotation for fast material removal—or a deep gloss when polishing.
• With MMC electronics, you get consistent speed under load, soft start, variable speed control, and overload protection providing the ultimate in performance and controllability.
• The double-sealed long-life gearbox, which is virtually hermetically sealed, makes your ROTEX RO 150 even more durable, even under the toughest operating conditions.

How do I switch between sanding modes, and can it be done while running?
Web Tips W. on 06/18/2025 10:11 AM
BEST ANSWER: A simple mode selector switch lets you toggle between rotary (coarse/polish) and eccentric (fine) motion. However, the switch is interlocked to prevent changing modes mid-operation—you must turn the pad to a stop before switching
