Product Details
Fast Setup, Precise Results.
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.
Adjustable Mortising Depth
Dialed-In Depths. Choose from preset routing depths: 12, 15, 20, 25, or 28 mm. Each one matches your tenon size and panel thickness.
Complete system
Join Any Shape. Whether you’re working with round or square stock, DOMINO accessories help you get perfect spacing and strong frame joints.
Miter Joints
Adjustable Angles. Set your routing angle anywhere from 0° to 90° for perfect miters and tight glue-ups.
Dust-extractable
Dust-Free Mortising. DOMINO creates chips fast. Hook up a Dust Extractor to keep your cuts clean and precise.
Small Part Friendly
Perfect for Small Parts. Join thin pieces starting at just 1/2" (12 mm)—ideal for drawer sides and detailed work.
Custom Fit
Flush Every Time. Start with a snug mortise, then use wider ones for the rest. That little wiggle room helps fix misalignment and keeps your joint flush.
Built to Last
Smart Connectors for Cabinets and Frames. DOMINO connectors are tough, adjustable, and easy to take apart when needed.
Indoor & Outdoor Ready
Built for Indoors and Out. Choose beech tenons for interior work or sipo tenons for outdoor builds—they’re weatherproof and resistant to insects and mold.
Smart Indexing
Rock-Solid Hold. DOMINO Tenons feature glue pockets and side grooves that lock in tight. Sizes range from 4 x 20 mm to 10 x 50 mm.
Rock-Solid Joints
No Twist, No Hassle. From the first tenon, your joint is locked against rotation—no need to align the workpieces.
Oscillating Cutting Motion
Fast Setup, Easy Alignment. 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.
Cordless Freedom
Strong joints. No cords. Built for the job site. The DOMINO DFC 500 is part of Festool’s 18V battery system—giving you full mobility on the job site with no need for a power outlet. Pair it with a cordless dust extractor and you’ve got a completely cord-free setup that goes wherever you do.
Comfort Grip
Work All Day, Be Comfortable. The ergonomic D-handle with soft grip keeps you in control and cuts down on fatigue.
Precise Cutting
Smooth, Precise Cutting. 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.
Stronger, Smarter Joints.
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.
Cordless Freedom with Pro-Level Control.
The new cordless DOMINO lets you move freely around the shop or job site without cords slowing you down. Its ergonomic D-handle is designed for all-day comfort and fatigue-free control, so you can work longer and smarter.
