Festool Longlife-FIS-CTL MIDI Reusable Filter Bag

At a Glance: Robust reusable filter bag made from tear-resistant three-layer polyester fleece for collecting dry, non-hazardous class L dust and coarse debris with CTL MIDI extractors manufactured up to 2018.

Reduce disposable filter-bag consumption when collecting suitable coarse dust, chips and debris with the Festool Longlife-FIS-CTL MIDI Reusable Filter Bag. Designed specifically for Festool CTL MIDI mobile dust extractors manufactured up to 2018, this durable filter bag is made from high-strength three-layer polyester fleece for a long working life. Once filled with approved dry, non-hazardous material, the bag can be removed, opened using its sealing slide, emptied and returned to the extractor for continued use. Its tear-resistant construction makes it a practical choice for workshops and construction sites where larger particles and class L dust are collected regularly. The Longlife filter bag is not recommended for fine dust and must not be used for hazardous or wet materials.

Empty, reinstall and continue extracting

Unlike a disposable filter bag, the Longlife-FIS-CTL MIDI is designed for repeated use. Open the sealing slide, empty the collected dry material safely, close the slide and reinstall the bag in the compatible extractor.

Product Highlights

  • Reusable construction: Can be emptied and returned to service instead of being discarded after a single fill.
  • Durable polyester fleece: Manufactured from high-strength three-layer material for dependable professional use.
  • Tear-resistant design: Withstands repeated handling and the collection of suitable coarse dust and debris.
  • For class L dust: Suitable for approved dry, non-hazardous dust within the extractor&s class L application range.
  • Convenient sealing slide: Allows the bag to be opened for emptying and closed again before reinstallation.
  • Reduced consumable use: Helps lower reliance on single-use filter bags in appropriate applications.
  • Suitable for coarse material: Ideal for larger chips, shavings and non-hazardous dry workshop debris.
  • Purpose-designed fit: Made for Festool CTL MIDI mobile dust extractors manufactured up to 2018.

Extra Information

  • The Longlife-FIS-CTL MIDI is compatible with Festool CTL MIDI mobile dust extractors manufactured up to 2018.
  • Confirm the model and manufacturing generation of the extractor before ordering.
  • The filter bag is manufactured from high-strength three-layer polyester fleece.
  • It is intended only for dry dust and debris that are not hazardous to health.
  • The bag is suitable for approved class L dust applications.
  • It is particularly useful for collecting coarse chips and larger particles.

Pro Tips

  • Reserve the Longlife bag for coarse chips and dry debris, and use disposable SELFCLEAN bags for fine sanding or construction dust.
  • Empty the bag before it becomes tightly packed to maintain effective airflow through the extractor.
  • Hold the bag upright during removal to minimise the movement of collected dust.
  • Empty the contents in a suitable controlled area away from open doors, operating machinery and ignition sources.
  • Inspect the fleece, connection point and sealing slide whenever the bag is emptied.
  • Replace the bag immediately if the material is torn, excessively clogged or no longer seals correctly.
  • Clean the extractor container before reinstalling the bag so sharp debris cannot damage the fleece.
  • Mark the bag for coarse-material use to prevent it from being used accidentally for unsuitable fine or hazardous dust.

How to Use

  • Inspect the Longlife filter bag for tears, worn seams or damage to the sealing slide.
