Supplied in a bulk pack of 780.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp itemprop=\"description\"\u003eThe Festool DOMINO D 8x40\/780 BU is a bulk pack of 780 precision-manufactured beech DOMINO dowels for producing strong, accurately aligned joints in solid wood and panel materials. Unlike conventional round dowels, the distinctive elongated DOMINO cross-section provides a large gluing area and exceptional resistance to twisting. Festool's projecting guide ribs centre each dowel precisely in the routed mortise, while specially shaped glue pockets and longitudinal grooves distribute adhesive throughout the joint and allow excess glue to escape. This combination creates an extremely secure connection while making assembly fast and forgiving. The 8 x 40 mm size can be used with Festool DOMINO DF 500, DF 500 R, cordless DFC 500 and DOMINO XL DF 700 joining machines using the appropriate cutter and mortise settings. Manufactured from FSC™-certified beech, these dowels are intended primarily for interior furniture, cabinetmaking, joinery, shopfitting and exhibition construction.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"definition-products\"\u003e\r\n  \u003cstrong\u003eNot round.

Its broad, elongated cross-section creates substantial gluing surfaces and resists rotation immediately, while precision-machined mortises make alignment quick and repeatable. Festool states that the cross-section of a DOMINO provides stability comparable to three round dowels of the same drill diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-highlights\"\u003e\r\n  \u003ch3\u003eProduct highlights\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n  \u003cul\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e8 x 40 mm DOMINO size:\u003c\/strong\u003e Versatile dowel dimension suitable for a wide range of furniture, cabinet and joinery applications.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e780-piece bulk pack:\u003c\/strong\u003e Economical professional quantity for workshops and regular production use.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBeech construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Precision-made hardwood dowels intended primarily for interior applications.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e100% rotation-proof:\u003c\/strong\u003e The distinctive DOMINO shape prevents the joint from twisting from the very first dowel.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExcellent joint stability:\u003c\/strong\u003e The wide DOMINO profile creates significantly greater support than a conventional single round dowel.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSelf-centring guide ribs:\u003c\/strong\u003e Laterally projecting ribs centre the dowel accurately inside the DOMINO mortise.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial glue pockets:\u003c\/strong\u003e Formed recesses help distribute adhesive across the joint surfaces.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLongitudinal glue grooves:\u003c\/strong\u003e Promote even adhesive distribution while providing a route for excess glue to escape.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFast assembly:\u003c\/strong\u003e The first accurately positioned DOMINO immediately aligns and stabilises the components being joined.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTolerance-friendly system:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wider mortise settings can accommodate small positioning variations in subsequent mortises.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize marked on dowel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Imprinted sizing makes the correct DOMINO easy to identify in the workshop.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFSC™ certified:\u003c\/strong\u003e Produced from wood sourced through responsible forest management and controlled sources.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-compatibility\"\u003e\r\n  \u003ch3\u003eProduct Compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n  \u003cul\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFestool DOMINO DF 500:\u003c\/strong\u003e Compatible with the DF 500 joining system using the appropriate 8 mm cutter.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFestool DOMINO DF 500 R:\u003c\/strong\u003e Compatible with the updated DF 500 R joining machine.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFestool DOMINO DFC 500:\u003c\/strong\u003e Compatible with the cordless DOMINO DFC 500 using the appropriate 8 mm cutter and settings.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFestool DOMINO XL DF 700:\u003c\/strong\u003e The 8 x 40 mm DOMINO is also within the supported dowel range of the DF 700.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\r\n  \u003cp class=\"info-products\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility note:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use an \u003cstrong\u003e8 mm DOMINO cutter\u003c\/strong\u003e and select the correct mortise depth for the 40 mm dowel length.

Depending on the application, subsequent mortises can be cut slightly wider using the DOMINO machine's mortise-width settings. This gives the remaining dowels a small amount of lateral assembly tolerance while the first DOMINO keeps the components perfectly aligned. It is one of the reasons the system is both precise and fast in real-world furniture construction.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003c!-- Pro Tip --\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"tip-products\"\u003e\r\n  \u003ch4\u003ePro Tips\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n  \u003cul\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eUse the narrow mortise setting for the first reference DOMINO so the two components align precisely.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eWhere appropriate, use a wider mortise for subsequent DOMINOs to make larger assemblies easier to bring together.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eMark matching reference faces on both workpieces before routing to prevent accidentally cutting mortises from opposite reference surfaces.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eSet the routing depth carefully.
