Festool Granat 5 inch 320 grit sanding disc is a hook and loop abrasive disc that attaches quickly to compatible backup pads, helping crews change grits without tools while keeping discs secure during sanding. The disc uses 320 grit, which refines surfaces after coarser sanding and prepares many finishes for further steps in the coating system. The abrasive is hardened aluminum oxide on a paper backing, so it is designed to cut consistently while the paper backing supports the grain during normal sanding passes. The disc has a 9 hole pattern, which aligns with matching vacuum pad layouts to pull dust away from the work surface and support clearer visibility while sanding. The product is part of the Festool Granat abrasive line, which is described as Festool's most long-lasting and highest performing abrasive for nearly all listed applications.
The Festool Granat 5 inch 320 grit sanding disc uses a hook and loop attachment, so it presses onto a matching hook and loop pad and can be removed by peeling it away when changing discs. The 5 inch diameter is sized for sanders and pads built for this disc size, aligning the outer edge of the disc with the pad for full support while sanding. The 9 hole configuration in the disc lines up with pads sharing the same pattern, allowing connected dust extraction to pull material through the holes as the sander runs. The backing is paper-based under the abrasive layer, so it stays flexible enough to conform to gentle surface variations while still supporting the hardened aluminum oxide grit for a uniform scratch pattern.
The Granat 5 inch P320 disc is described as well suited for nearly all applications listed by the manufacturer, which include bare wood, paints, most modern paint systems, VOC clear coats, plastic materials, solid surface materials, acrylics, and composites. This range means the same 320 grit disc can be used as part of a sanding sequence on raw wood before finishing, then on cured coatings such as paints or VOC clear coats where controlled material removal is needed between coats. The suitability for plastic materials, solid surface materials, acrylics, and composites lets shops carry one abrasive line across different fabrication tasks, from cabinet components to solid surface tops or composite fixtures. The hardened aluminum oxide abrasive works on these listed surfaces by providing a consistent cut, so the same disc type can support both shaping steps and refinement passes when used within a grit progression chosen for the job.
The hardened aluminum oxide grain on the Granat disc provides the cutting surface, so each pass maintains its scratch pattern as the abrasive stays engaged with the workpiece. The closed coated construction means the abrasive surface is fully covered with grain, so more cutting points contact the material on every stroke, which matters when working dense coatings or solid materials among the listed applications. The synthetic resin bond holds the abrasive grains on the paper backing, so the disc is designed to maintain grain placement during sanding, supporting an even finish across the disc face. Being described as Festool's most long-lasting and highest performing abrasive, Granat is intended to keep removing material effectively over more work, which reduces disc changes during larger projects on the listed surfaces. The 320 grit setting in this construction supports controlled finishing passes, where consistent scratch depth helps coatings and topcoats sit evenly across bare wood, paints, and other compatible materials described for this product.
The Granat 5 inch P320 disc is described as suitable for bare wood, paints, most modern paint systems, VOC clear coats, plastic materials, solid surface materials, acrylics, and composites, so one disc type can serve many shop sanding tasks.
The 5 inch diameter matches sanders and pads built for this size, so the disc covers a common sanding footprint and supports even contact across flat panels and typical cabinet components.
The 9 hole pattern aligns with compatible vacuum pads, so dust extraction can pull material through the disc and help keep the surface clearer while sanding, supporting visibility and consistent cutting.
The Granat disc uses hardened aluminum oxide as the abrasive grain, which provides a consistent cutting surface on the listed materials while the paper backing supports the grain under sanding pressure.
The synthetic resin bond holds the hardened aluminum oxide grains to the paper backing, so the abrasive layer stays in place during sanding and supports an even scratch pattern on the workpiece.
The Granat 320 grit disc provides a fine cut, so it follows coarser grits by removing residual scratches and prepares many surfaces in the listed materials for subsequent finishing or coating steps.
The Festool Granat 5 inch 320 grit hook and loop 9 hole sanding disc gives shops a fine abrasive option designed for bare wood, paints, most modern paint systems, VOC clear coats, plastic materials, solid surface materials, acrylics, and composites. The hardened aluminum oxide on a paper backing, combined with a synthetic resin bond and closed coated construction, provides a consistent cutting surface for these listed applications. By choosing this Granat disc, installers and fabricators can standardize on a single abrasive line for fine sanding passes across multiple materials while working with a 5 inch disc format and 9 hole dust extraction layout.
