Festool GRANAT STF D150/48 P400 GR/100 Abrasive Discs
At a Glance: Professional 150 mm P400 GRANAT abrasive discs with StickFix attachment and MULTI-JETSTREAM 2 49-hole dust extraction pattern, supplied in a box of 100 for fine sanding of modern paint systems, VOC clear coats, hard coatings, fillers, plastics, acrylic and mineral materials.
The Festool GRANAT STF D150/48 P400 GR/100 abrasive is a premium professional sanding disc developed for demanding finishing work where a consistently fine surface and dependable abrasive life are essential. With a 150 mm diameter and fine P400 grit, it is ideally suited to fine sanding and preparation of modern paint systems, VOC clear coats, hard substrates, repair compounds, fillers, plastics, acrylic and suitable mineral materials. GRANAT's special abrasive coating is designed to resist premature clogging, an especially valuable advantage when working with coatings and materials that can quickly load conventional abrasives. The MULTI-JETSTREAM 2 extraction system works together with the disc's 49-hole extraction pattern to transport sanding dust efficiently away from the surface, helping keep the abrasive cooler and cleaner while protecting the workpiece and improving the working environment. Festool StickFix hook-and-loop attachment allows discs to be fitted and changed in seconds, while compatibility with a wide range of Festool 150 mm sanders makes this 100-disc pack an excellent workshop choice for professional painters, varnishers, joiners, automotive finishers, drywall specialists and furniture manufacturers.
GRANAT was developed for demanding materials that can be particularly hard on conventional abrasives. Its special coating helps prevent clogging when sanding modern coatings, fillers and hard surfaces, extending useful abrasive life and helping maintain consistent sanding performance. Although especially effective on VOC varnishes and hard substrates, GRANAT is sufficiently versatile for a broad range of surface-preparation and finishing applications.

Extra Information
- What does P400 mean? P400 is a fine abrasive grit according to the FEPA P-grade system. It is intended for refining a surface rather than aggressive material removal and is commonly used in later sanding stages where a fine, uniform scratch pattern is required.
- What does D150 mean? D150 identifies the abrasive as a round disc with a nominal diameter of 150 mm.
- What does GR mean? GR identifies the Festool GRANAT abrasive range.
- What does /100 mean? The packaging contains 100 individual abrasive discs.
- Why GRANAT for modern coatings? Modern varnishes and coatings can create fine sanding residue that rapidly loads ordinary abrasive paper. GRANAT's special coating is designed to resist this clogging and maintain useful sanding performance for longer.
- Recommended for VOC clear coats: Festool specifically recommends GRANAT for modern VOC clear-coat systems, making it an excellent choice for professional paint and finishing environments.
- What is MULTI-JETSTREAM 2? Festool's MULTI-JETSTREAM 2 system coordinates the sanding pad and abrasive hole pattern to create efficient airflow across the sanding surface. Dust is transported through numerous extraction channels rather than accumulating beneath the abrasive.
- 49-hole extraction: The D150 GRANAT configuration provides extensive extraction openings across the disc for efficient collection of fine sanding dust.
- Why effective extraction improves abrasive life: Dust trapped between the abrasive and workpiece blocks the cutting grains and generates additional heat. Removing it continuously helps the abrasive remain effective for longer.
- Why dust extraction improves the finish: Loose particles trapped beneath a fine abrasive can create deeper random scratches. Efficient extraction helps maintain a cleaner contact surface and more uniform P400 sanding pattern.
- StickFix system: Festool's hook-and-loop attachment securely holds the disc during sanding while still allowing rapid removal when changing grit or replacing a worn abrasive.
- Universal abrasive: Although GRANAT is especially strong on coatings and hard substrates, Festool also specifies it for plastics, mineral materials, acrylic, repair compounds and fillers.
P400 sits firmly in the fine-sanding range. Rather than quickly levelling major defects, its job is to refine the scratch pattern left by earlier sanding stages and prepare a surface for the next finishing operation. On paint and varnish systems, P400 can provide the controlled, uniform key required before subsequent coating stages, subject to the coating manufacturer's specified sanding procedure.
Pro Tips
- Do not expect P400 to remove deep scratches efficiently. If the surface has significant defects, start with the appropriate coarser grit and work progressively toward P400.
- Avoid jumping too many grit grades between sanding stages. Large grit jumps can leave scratches from the earlier stage that P400 takes unnecessarily long to remove.
- Make sure the abrasive's extraction holes align correctly with the sanding pad. Correct alignment is essential for the full benefit of MULTI-JETSTREAM 2 extraction.
- Use a suitable Festool dust extractor whenever possible. Fine P400 sanding creates very small airborne particles that benefit greatly from effective source extraction.
- Use light, even pressure during fine sanding. Excessive pressure creates additional heat, can clog the abrasive prematurely and may produce an uneven sanding pattern.
- Allow the sander's own orbital movement and abrasive to perform the cutting rather than forcing the machine into the workpiece.
- Keep the sanding pad flat against the workpiece when working on broad surfaces to maintain an even scratch pattern.
- Change the disc when it becomes excessively clogged or no longer cuts effectively. Increasing pressure to compensate for a worn abrasive usually reduces finish quality.
- When sanding clear coats or painted surfaces, follow the coating manufacturer's recommended grit sequence and curing times.
- Wipe or extract loose sanding residue before inspecting the surface. Dust can hide fine scratches and imperfections.
- For critical finishing work, inspect the surface under strong directional lighting before moving to the next coating or polishing stage.
- Store unused GRANAT discs flat, clean and dry so the abrasive surface and StickFix backing remain in good condition.
- Do not mix used abrasive discs with new ones. Keeping worn discs separate makes grit and condition easier to identify during finishing work.
How to Use
- Confirm that the sander or hand-sanding block is designed for 150 mm StickFix abrasive discs.
- Switch off and disconnect the sander from its power source before fitting or replacing the abrasive where required by the machine instructions.
- Inspect the sanding pad and remove dust or debris that could interfere with the StickFix attachment.
- Centre the P400 GRANAT disc carefully on the sanding pad.
- Align the abrasive's extraction openings with the corresponding MULTI-JETSTREAM 2 holes in the sanding pad.
- Press the disc evenly onto the StickFix surface so it is securely retained across the complete pad.
- Connect a suitable dust extractor where possible and confirm that the hose and extraction openings are unobstructed.
- Select an appropriate machine speed for the material and coating being sanded.
- Place the sanding pad flat against the workpiece and guide the machine smoothly using light, even pressure.
- Work systematically with overlapping passes to produce a uniform P400 scratch pattern.
- Inspect the abrasive regularly and replace it if the surface becomes heavily clogged, damaged or noticeably less effective.
- After sanding, thoroughly remove dust from the workpiece before inspecting the finish or applying the next coating stage.
