Festool STF D125/8 P60 GR/50 Granat Abrasive Discs 125mm P60 50 Piece
At a Glance: Coarse P60 GRANAT abrasive discs with a 125 mm diameter, 8-hole extraction pattern and StickFix backing, supplied in a professional 50-piece pack for strong material removal and demanding surface preparation.
The Festool STF D125/8 P60 GR/50 GRANAT abrasive discs are professional 125 mm abrasives designed for efficient coarse sanding and demanding surface preparation. With a P60 grit, they provide strong material removal while leaving a more controlled sanding pattern than very coarse P40 abrasives, making them ideal for levelling repair compounds and fillers, refining coatings, processing hard substrates and preparing surfaces for subsequent finer sanding stages. GRANAT is Festool's versatile high-performance abrasive range and is particularly well suited to modern paint systems, VOC clear coats and hard sublayers. Its special construction helps resist premature clogging and maintain effective cutting performance, while the StickFix backing allows quick, secure attachment and convenient abrasive changes. The 8-hole extraction pattern supports effective dust removal when correctly aligned with a compatible sanding pad and extraction system. Supplied in a professional 50-piece pack, FES497166 is ideal for workshops, painters, varnishers, joiners and other users who regularly require coarse 125 mm abrasives.
P60 is a coarse abrasive grade intended for substantial material removal while producing a finer scratch pattern than P40. It is especially useful for refining rough surfaces, levelling fillers and repair compounds, and preparing substrates before progressing to P80, P120 and finer grades.

Coarse sanding grade
P60 is intended for strong material removal and early-stage preparation rather than final finishing. Where a smooth painted, varnished or polished surface is required, continue progressively through suitable finer abrasive grades after P60.
Features

What is Festool GRANAT?
GRANAT is Festool's high-performance abrasive range developed for demanding surface preparation and finishing applications. It is particularly well suited to modern paint systems, VOC clear coats and hard sublayers, while other suitable materials such as plastics, mineral materials, acrylic, repair compounds and fillers can also be processed effectively.
What is P60 best used for?
P60 is a coarse sanding grade that provides strong material removal while leaving a finer scratch pattern than P40. It is ideal for levelling coatings, fillers and repair compounds and for preparing surfaces before progressing to P80, P120 and finer abrasives.
What does the 8-hole pattern do?
The extraction holes allow sanding dust to pass through the abrasive and compatible sanding pad into the extraction system. Correct alignment helps keep the work area cleaner and supports more efficient sanding.
Why is dust extraction important?
Removing sanding dust helps keep the workpiece visible, reduces loose debris between the abrasive and surface and supports more consistent sanding performance. This is particularly useful during coarse sanding where higher volumes of dust are often produced.
What makes StickFix useful?
Festool StickFix uses a hook-and-loop system to secure the abrasive to a compatible sanding pad. Worn discs can be removed and replaced quickly without clamps, adhesive or additional tools.
Why choose P60 instead of P40?
P60 still provides strong stock removal but produces a less aggressive sanding pattern than P40. It is therefore a useful choice where substantial preparation is required but a smoother transition toward intermediate sanding is preferred.
Why choose the 50-piece pack?
The GR/50 pack is intended for professional users who regularly consume P60 abrasives. The larger quantity provides a practical workshop supply and helps reduce interruptions caused by frequent replenishment.
Pro Tips
- Use P60 where strong material removal is required but P40 would be unnecessarily aggressive.
- Align all eight extraction holes accurately with the sanding pad for effective dust removal.
- Keep the sanding pad flat against the workpiece to reduce the risk of gouging or uneven material removal.
- Use controlled pressure and allow the abrasive to perform the cutting action.
- Remove loose sanding dust before progressing to the next finer grit.
- Continue through suitable grades such as P80 and P120 rather than jumping directly from P60 to a fine finishing abrasive.
- Replace the abrasive when it becomes heavily loaded, damaged or noticeably loses cutting performance.
How to Use
- Confirm that P60 is suitable for the amount of material that needs to be removed.
- Switch off and disconnect the sanding machine before fitting or changing the abrasive.
- Position the STF D125/8 P60 GRANAT disc accurately on the compatible StickFix sanding pad.
- Align all eight extraction holes with the corresponding openings in the sanding pad.
- Press the abrasive firmly onto the pad so that it is fully supported.
- Connect suitable dust extraction where applicable.
- Select an appropriate sanding speed for the material or coating being processed.
- Keep the sanding pad flat and move the machine steadily across the surface.
- Inspect the work regularly to avoid unnecessary material removal.
- Once the required preparation is complete, continue with an appropriate finer abrasive grade.
