Festool D 12,4 x 5 m Compressed Air Hose 5m for LEX 3 / LEX 2 / LRS

At a Glance: Professional 5 metre compressed-air hose for supplying compatible Festool LEX 3, LEX 2 and LRS pneumatic sanders directly from a compressed-air line. Designed for applications where separate dust extraction is not required through the hose. Connection to the sander requires the Festool IAS 3-SD adapter.

Supply your Festool pneumatic sander directly from a compressed-air line with the Festool D 12,4 x 5 m compressed air hose. This dedicated 5 metre air hose is designed for compatible LEX 3, LEX 2 and LRS compressed-air sanders when the machine is being operated without integrated dust extraction through an IAS hose system. The generous 5 m working length provides useful freedom of movement around the workpiece while keeping the air connection conveniently positioned away from the immediate sanding area. For connection at the machine, the hose is used together with the Festool IAS 3-SD adapter. Unlike Festool&s integrated IAS hoses, which can combine compressed-air supply with extraction and exhaust-air functions, FES497215 is specifically intended as a straightforward compressed-air supply hose. It is therefore a practical accessory for workshops and installations where dust extraction is handled separately or is not required for the particular application.

Direct compressed-air supply for Festool pneumatic sanders

The D 12,4 x 5 m hose provides the compressed-air connection needed to operate compatible Festool pneumatic sanders directly from an air line. It does not incorporate the dust-extraction function of a complete IAS hose system, making it particularly useful where the air supply and dust extraction systems are being managed separately.

What is this hose used for?

The D 12,4 x 5 m is a dedicated compressed-air supply hose. Its purpose is to carry compressed air from a suitable air line to a compatible Festool pneumatic sander. It is particularly useful when the operator does not need an integrated dust-extraction hose running together with the compressed-air supply.

What is the IAS 3-SD adapter?

The Festool IAS 3-SD is the adapter used to connect compatible Festool LEX 3, LEX 2 and LRS sanders directly to a compressed-air line. Festool specifies that this adapter is necessary when using the D 12,4 x 5 m hose with the machine.

Why is the IAS 3-SD adapter necessary?

Festool pneumatic sanders use a dedicated machine-side connection system. The IAS 3-SD adapter provides the required interface between the compressed-air hose and the sander, allowing the machine to receive its air supply correctly.

Air hose versus an IAS hose

This product should not be confused with Festool&s complete IAS hose systems. An IAS hose can combine several functions associated with pneumatic sanding, including compressed-air supply and dust extraction. The D 12,4 x 5 m hose is intended specifically for compressed-air supply and is therefore appropriate when dust extraction through the same hose is not required.

Why choose a 5 metre hose?

A 5 metre hose provides useful freedom of movement without positioning the compressed-air connection immediately beside the workpiece. This can be particularly convenient when sanding large components, vehicle panels, doors, furniture or other workpieces where the operator needs to move around freely.

Compressed-air quality matters

Pneumatic sanders depend on a suitable compressed-air supply for reliable operation. The compressor, pressure setting and air-preparation equipment should meet the requirements specified for the particular Festool sander. Clean, correctly prepared compressed air helps support reliable machine performance and service life.

Separate dust extraction

Because this hose provides compressed air only, any required dust extraction must be arranged separately. Where extraction is needed, use a suitable Festool extraction system and accessories appropriate to the sander, abrasive and material being processed.

Pro Tips

  • Confirm that you have the correct Festool IAS 3-SD adapter before installing the hose on a LEX 3, LEX 2 or LRS sander.
  • Check the operating pressure and compressed-air requirements of the specific sander before use.
  • Use properly prepared compressed air and follow the lubrication requirements specified for the pneumatic tool.
  • Route the 5 m hose so that it cannot become kinked, crushed or caught beneath the workpiece.
  • Avoid pulling or carrying the machine by the air hose or fittings.
  • Inspect the hose and connectors regularly for leaks, abrasion or physical damage.
  • If dust extraction is required, arrange it separately or use the appropriate Festool IAS system for the application.
  • Disconnect the compressed-air supply before changing adapters, servicing the sander or inspecting the hose connections.

How to Use

  • Confirm that the pneumatic sander is compatible with the Festool D 12,4 x 5 m air hose and IAS 3-SD adapter.
  • Switch off and isolate the compressed-air supply before making any connections.
  • Inspect the hose and connectors for cuts, damage or contamination.
  • Fit the Festool IAS 3-SD adapter to the compatible LEX 3, LEX 2 or LRS sander according to the machine instructions.
  • Connect the D 12,4 x 5 m hose securely to the IAS 3-SD adapter.
  • Connect the opposite end of the hose to the suitable compressed-air supply.
  • Arrange the hose so that it is free from sharp bends, crushing points and trip hazards.
  • Set the compressed-air system according to the requirements of the particular Festool sander.
  • If required, connect a separate dust-extraction system appropriate to the machine and application.
  • Restore the compressed-air supply and check all connections for secure seating and air leaks.
  • Operate the sander according to its Festool operating instructions.
  • After use, isolate the compressed-air supply before disconnecting the hose or adapter.

Safety

  • Always isolate and depressurise the compressed-air supply before connecting or disconnecting the hose.
  • Use only with compatible pneumatic equipment and within the operating requirements specified by the machine manufacturer.
  • Do not use a hose that is cut, cracked, badly abraded or otherwise damaged.
  • Check all couplings and adapters for secure engagement before pressurising the system.
  • Never direct compressed air toward yourself or another person.
  • Do not exceed the permissible air pressure specified for the connected pneumatic sander or air system.
  • Keep the hose away from sharp edges, hot surfaces and moving machinery.
  • Route the hose carefully to minimise trip hazards and prevent accidental snagging.
  • Where sanding generates harmful dust, use appropriate dust extraction and personal protective equipment.
  • Follow all operating and safety instructions supplied with the Festool pneumatic sander and compressed-air system.
