Description

DOMINO Tenons combine the best of mortise-and-tenon, biscuit, and dowel joinery—giving you perfect alignment, serious holding power, and flexibility across materials and applications. Whether you're building cabinets, tables, or outdoor furniture, your joints stay tight and true. DOMINO loose tenons combine the alignment benefits of biscuit joinery with the holding strength of mortise-and-tenon joinery. The result is a strong floating tenon system for cabinet joinery, furniture assembly, frame joints, miter joints, drawer parts, and panel work. Built-in indexing points make alignment quick and easy. Whether you're joining trim or framing large pieces, the DOMINO system helps you work faster—with consistent, pro-grade results every time. Festool’s 18V battery system gives you full mobility on the job. Pair the DOMINO with a cordless dust extractor for a completely cord-free setup. Work All Day, Be Comfortable. The ergonomic D-handle with soft grip keeps you in control and cuts down on fatigue. The DOMINO’s unique pendulum motion combines rotation and swing for clean, twist-proof mortises. It also keeps the cutter cool, so it lasts longer. Use the built-in index pins to line up from a reference edge or an existing mortise. You can even group tenons for extra strength. 578121, accessories sold separately Both the Festool Cordless DOMINO Joiner DFC 500 and the corded DF 500 are new and improved for toolless adjustments.
