Features & Specification

Festool RTS 400 REQ-Plus 230V Orbital Sander RUTSCHER

Compact one-handed orbital sander for controlled sanding on small, narrow, vertical and overhead surfaces.

230V • 250W • 80 × 130mm Pad • 2mm Stroke

The Festool RTS 400 REQ-Plus RUTSCHER orbital sander is designed for effortless one-handed sanding on small, narrow, vertical and overhead surfaces. Its compact design and balanced weight distribution provide comfortable handling during prolonged work.

The 250 W motor is controlled by Festool MMC electronics, providing consistent speed and up to 25% greater material removal capacity. This helps maintain efficient sanding performance across a wide range of finishing and preparation applications.

For cleaner working, the RTS 400 can be connected to a Festool mobile dust extractor using the CLEANTEC connection system or operated with the reusable long-life dust collection bag. The attachable PROTECTOR also helps protect adjacent surfaces when sanding close to edges, frames and panelling.

  • PROTECTOR Edge Protection – helps prevent damage to adjacent surfaces and reduces reworking when sanding close to edges.
