The Festool 205415 Sanding Pad for PLANEX 2 Sander is a replacement sanding pad for select Festool long-reach drywall sanders. This is a sanding pad designed for surface preparation and finish sanding on walls and ceilings. Model Number 205415. If your work depends on keeping a PLANEX 2 sander cutting clean and leaving a more even finish on filler and plaster, this is the pad that keeps the machine working the way it should.

What matters here is finish quality. Festool lists this pad for creating a perfect and scratch-free surface, which makes it a practical choice for final passes on plaster filler and dispersion-based filler. On real jobs, that means less cleanup after sanding and a better shot at moving straight to primer or paint without chasing swirl marks and surface defects.

The 8-11/16" (220 mm) diameter gives this sanding pad broad coverage, which is exactly what you want on a long-reach sander. Wide contact helps when you are working across large ceiling fields or long wall runs because the tool stays productive instead of acting like a small detail sander. For drywall finishing and surface prep, that larger pad size is a time saver.

This accessory is also application-specific, not universal. It is suitable for the Festool PLANEX LHS 2 225 EQ(I) and PLANEX LHS 2-M 225 EQ long-reach sanders. Festool also states it is not suitable for the older PLANEX LHS 225 EQ and not suitable for the PLANEX LHS-E 225 EQ. That fitment matters, because a backing pad has to match the machine correctly if you want stable sanding performance and proper surface contact.

Festool identifies this as a sanding pad that may only be used when the IP-STF-D220/48-LHS 2 225 interface pad is fastened. That is an important detail, not a fine-print note. It tells you this pad is part of a matched system for the PLANEX 2 setup, and using the correct interface layer is part of getting the intended finish quality and pad performance.

For pros doing drywall finishing, remodel work, paint prep, or any job where large-area sanding quality shows in the final result, this is the right kind of replacement part to buy once and buy correctly. If you already run a compatible PLANEX 2 long-reach sander, the Festool 205415 Sanding Pad for PLANEX 2 Sander is the straightforward choice for keeping your wall and ceiling sanding setup matched to the tool.
