Hey, I’m Harley with Ohio Power Tool and
today we’re taking a look at the brand new Festool Planex Drywall Sander! First things first, it is just a good looking
piece of equipment. It comes with a Gen 3 Systainer, already fit
for the Planex so every piece already has a home and organization will be no issue. The new generation PLANEX long-reach sander
is revolutionizing drywall construction. The all round LED light ring works like a
built in raking light, revealing any unevenness during sanding. The Planex also has a random orbit sanding
motion, which produces outstanding surface quality–without any expensive reworking. The adjustable suction power, variable working
length and clever T-handle ensure ergonomic work on walls and ceilings–making the tool
easy to control, even during long periods of operation. The adjustable suction power against the wall
and ceiling reduces the load on the arms and back during all sanding work.
The working length can be quickly adapted
to the working environment using a single lever–for full flexibility in tight spaces
and with high ceilings. When combined with the CT 36 dust extractors,
low levels of dust are created during work to protect your health and keep the site clean. Another big plus is the brushless EC motor,
which is extremely robust, long lasting and maintenance free. Weighing in at 8-10 pounds depending on your
attachment, the T-handle definitely helps when using this thing all day. Combined with the suction it takes most of
the weight off of the tool when in use. I mean, in theory, I could just walk away
from it with the right amount of suction. Well, there you have it! The new Planex is available in May of 2021,
or you can pre-order right now at ohiopowertool.com.
