Imagine cruising through perfect wood joints without the mess of biscuits or fuss of mortises - your Festool DOMINO DF 500 RQ Electric Joining Machine makes it possible.
The DF 500 RQ is the replacement for the incredibly popular DF 500 R. However, instead of doing away with key features, they have enhanced them. The DF 500 R includes an improved guide frame with clear markings, quick-release lever and sturdy double-column guide.
For accurate positioning, there are four stop pins (that can be popped in and folded away), saving you the hassle of measuring or marking.
This sleek machine combines the precision of a round dowel with the flexibility of a flat one, delivering invisible, rock-solid connections between panels, frames, drawers - basically anything you build.
What sets it apart? First, the patented pendulum-cutting motion: instead of just spinning, the cutter swings and rotates, slicing clean mortises with no scorch marks or kickbacks, and a longer tool life to boot.
Then there's the depth-stop dial - flip between 12, 15, 20, 25 or 28 mm in seconds. You can dial in the perfect plunge depth for your project without breaking focus
If it sounds like magic, wait until you hear about the oval DOMINO tenons: they give you a bigger glued surface and joints that won’t twist - think zero-rotation strength.
You can use tenons from 4×20 mm up to a hefty 10×50 mm, so whether you're gluing up face frames or building heavy furniture, the DF 500 RQ has your back.
Setting it up? Faster than your morning coffee. Festool’s intuitive stop-cap system handles positioning in a blink, and with the smooth fence that tilts from 0° to 90° and quick-release pins, angled or edge joints feel effortless.
Plus, the ergonomic grip keeps your wrist happy, even during overhead or awkward cuts.
