Festool CT Cyclone Dust Separator
Festool CT Cyclone Pre-Separator and Parts
The Festool CT Cyclone CT-VA 20 sits between the tool and the extractor and drops most chips and dust into its own bin before air reaches the CT. That keeps the filter bag and main filter cleaner, so suction stays strong through long sanding or routing sessions. This collection has the pre-separator, a bundle with disposable dust liners, single and 3-pack collection bins, a 10-pack of liners, a retrofit strap kit, and a Plug-It cable extender.
What to Look For
- Liners. Disposable liners make emptying fine dust cleaner and faster.
- Spare bins. A 3-pack of bins lets you swap a full bin and keep working.
- Mounting. The retrofit strap kit secures the cyclone to the extractor.
- Cord reach. The Plug-It extender carries tool power past the added height of the cyclone.

Festool CT Cyclone Dust Separator FAQ
Do I need a cyclone if my CT has a filter bag?
Not for light work. A cyclone pays off with heavy dust loads such as sanding drywall, planing, or routing, where a bag fills fast and suction drops. It cuts how often you change filter bags.
What should I buy with the CT-VA 20?
Start with the bundle that adds a 10-pack of disposable liners. Add a spare collection bin if you work in long sessions.
