Fast Repeatable JoineryThe Festool 576797 Domino DF 500 Connector Assortment Systainer is built around the DOMINO DF 500 workflow, so joints are quick to machine and easy to position with less measuring and fewer setup steps. Organized in One BoxEverything stores in a Systainer with dedicated organization, which matters when you are moving between the shop and an install and need the right connector right now.
Overview
The Festool 576797 Domino DF 500 Connector Assortment Systainer is a complete connector kit for detachable furniture joinery using the Festool DOMINO DF 500 joiner. This is a DOMINO connector assortment designed for knock-down furniture joinery. Model Number: 576797. If you build cabinets, casework, display fixtures, or furniture that needs to go together cleanly and come apart later, this kit gives you a practical way to do it without a pile of separate part numbers.
What makes this system matter is not just that it joins parts together. It lets you assemble, separate, and reassemble furniture components with speed and good alignment. That is a big deal for shop-built work that gets moved to a customer site, tight stairway installs, or projects that need to ship flat and go together later. Festool built these connectors to work for corner joints, center panel joints, and joints tied into a series of holes, so the system covers more than one furniture layout.
The workflow is straightforward. Festool calls out that the joints are machined with the DOMINO DF 500 and do not require an additional special machine. In practice, that means if you already run a DF 500, this kit expands what the tool can do instead of forcing you into another setup. The connectors are designed for simple, precise positioning, which cuts down on extra stops and positioning aids and helps keep production moving.
There is also some real forgiveness built into the system. Festool states that routing and cutting tolerances up to 1.4 mm can be compensated by the fixture. That matters in furniture work, because small variances add up fast when you are assembling multiple panels and hardware on site. The long bolts and large tightening distance also make final assembly easier, especially on cabinet work where access can be awkward and you may be working alone.
This assortment is not just a handful of connectors tossed in a box. It includes multiple connector types, cover caps in four colors, DOMINO 8 x 36 mm pieces, a drill template, a hinge location cutter, and a screwdriver, all packed into a Festool Systainer. That gives you a more complete entry point into the connector system and keeps the parts sorted instead of mixed together in drawers or bins.
Compatibility is clear. This kit is suitable for the Festool DOMINO DF 500 and is intended for use in materials with a minimum thickness of 3/4 in. (18 mm). If you are building in that common furniture and cabinet range, it fits right into the kind of stock most shops already use. It also supports applications involving DOMINO mortises and LR32-style hole series connections, which adds flexibility when you are tying furniture construction into shelf pin layouts or system hole work.
Who should buy it? Cabinetmakers, furniture builders, millwork shops, and serious woodworkers who want knock-down joinery without sacrificing alignment or spending too much time on hardware layout. If you own a DF 500 and want to move beyond permanent glue-ups into furniture that assembles cleanly at delivery, this is the assortment that gets you there faster.

If you are building knock-down cabinets for delivery, machine a test joint in the same 3/4 in. stock first and keep the matching connector type with that project in its own tray section. It saves time at final install and helps avoid mixing center panel and structure connectors when you are moving fast.
