Festool Domino Joiner DF 500 Q Set

Joining has always been a slow, difficult process. Never again, thanks to the Festool DOMINO joining system. The system consists of the DOMINO joiner and pre-fabricated beech and sipo DOMINO tenons. The DOMINO joiner, with its revolutionary cutting method, simple indexing features and adjustable mortise sizing, makes flawless mortises every single time. The DOMINO tenon is equally as impressive – it is 100% rotation-proof and far stronger than either biscuits or dowels. It also has a large gluing surface area for extra strength. 

Don’t forget the dominos! Buy individual sizes, or get started with a variety pack in a convenient systainer (includes all cutters for the DF 500). 

The DF 500 Q Set comes with a 5mm cutter. To use with other sizes of dominos, make sure to get the compatible cutter as well! 

All Festool power tools include a 3-year wear-and-tear warranty, 2-day standard repair time, and 1-month satisfaction guarantee.

Features

• Patented routing principle: The spiral cutter rotates and oscillates to create perfect mortises
• Mortise Width Adjustment: Adjusting the width of the mortise allows for easier alignment when joining panels
• Positioning: With an adjustable fence angle, retractable stop flaps, adjustable cutter height with step gauge, and precise mortise depth stop, the DOMINO joiner enables precise mortise placement and spacing
• Pivoting fence: Fence creates angled mortises from 0-90° with positive stops at 22.5°, 45°, 67.5°
• Depth Control: Quick, precise adjustment for five different mortising depths, relative to the size of the tenon required for the application
• Stepped Height Stop: 7 different step positions for different material thicknesses for fast and easy fence height adjustment
• Dust extraction: Your mortises are clean and ready for glue when the DOMINO is used in combination with a dust extractor, extending your cutter life
• Carbide Tip Spiral Bit: Durable, long-lasting bit withstands 5,000-14,000 joints depending on material
• Rapid Bit Change: Means you can change a bit in under 30 seconds to match desired tenon size
