Festool Self Cleaning Filter Bag prevents fine dust particles from clinging to the side of the bag, which reduces dust extraction efficiency. Bags are available for both the CLEANTEC 26 and CLEANTEC 36 systems.
Prevent Caking Inside the Filter Bag To eliminate dust accumulation and caking inside the bag, the Festool Self Cleaning Filter Bag solves a problem that has adversely impacted dust extraction systems and vacuums for years. During normal use, fine particles of dust cling to the inner lining of the filter bag resulting in caking. This coating of dust lowers the effective suction power dramatically, resulting in poor extraction efficiency and performance. Caking can also cause additional strain on your dust extractor's motor and contribute to premature failure. Make Full Use of Every Bag Festool has developed a unique pliable fleece filter bag. Because the bag is not rigid like many others, such as paper bags, it prevents caking. This means that your Festool CT Dust Extractor continues to deliver full suction until the bag is completely full. Many other filter bags do not counter this caking effect and suction is reduced dramatically throughout the use of the bag, often resulting in diminished suction before the bag is completely full. When this occurs, you're paying for a partially empty bag. Better Dust Control The Festool filter bag also serves as a pre-filter and is able to trap dust particles down to five millionths of a meter, or 5 microns. This is about the same size as a red blood cell. By arresting these small particles, in addition to larger chips, the bag extends the life of your main HEPA filter, reducing wear and tear as well as the expense of frequent filter replacement. Mess-Free Disposal Bag disposal is quick and mess-free. An integrated closure on the bag shuts the opening to prevent spilling. The material is made to be tear resistant and prevent bag blow outs which can be messy to clean up.
