Biscuit Jointers

We sell biscuit jointers from Makita, DeWalt, Bosch and Einhell, covering corded and 18V cordless models built for cutting precise slots in edge-to-edge panel joints.

A biscuit jointer cuts a curved slot into each piece of timber being joined, into which a compressed wooden biscuit is glued. As the biscuit absorbs moisture from the glue, it swells slightly and locks the joint tight, giving strong alignment across a panel seam without visible screws, nails or dowels showing on the finished surface.

Brushless Biscuit Jointer

Where a biscuit jointer earns its place

Biscuit joints are common in furniture making, cabinetry and worktop joining, anywhere two flat panels need to align precisely edge to edge. The slot-and-biscuit method keeps both pieces flush during glue-up, which is harder to achieve reliably with glue alone, especially across a long seam where pieces can shift out of alignment before the glue sets.

Corded vs cordless

The Makita PJ7000 and Einhell TC-BJ 900 give continuous corded power for workshop-based joinery, without needing to think about battery charge across a longer job. Cordless 18V models, including the Makita DPJ180Z, DeWalt DCW682NT, Bosch GFF 18V-22 and Einhell TE-BJ 18 Li-Solo, remove the cable for on-site assembly work or moving between workbenches, and are sold as bare units to run on your existing battery platform.

Cutting depth and biscuit sizing

Biscuit jointers typically offer adjustable cutting depth to match different biscuit sizes (commonly labelled 0, 10 and 20), with larger biscuits suited to thicker stock and longer joints, and smaller biscuits suited to narrower or thinner material where a larger biscuit wouldn't fit cleanly. Check the depth settings on the specific model against the biscuit sizes you plan to use most.

Standards and compliance

Biscuit jointers sold here comply with IEC 62841, the international safety standard for hand-held power tools, and carry CE and UKCA marking confirming they meet the relevant EU and UK safety requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

A biscuit jointer cuts slots for wooden biscuits, used to align and strengthen edge-to-edge panel joints in furniture and cabinetry without visible screws or nails.
A biscuit is a small, compressed oval piece of wood glued into matching slots on two panels being joined. It absorbs moisture from the glue, swells slightly, and locks the joint tightly in place while keeping both pieces aligned.
Biscuit size depends on stock thickness and joint length. Larger biscuits, commonly labelled size 20, suit thicker stock and longer joints, while smaller sizes suit narrower or thinner material where a larger biscuit wouldn't fit cleanly.
A corded model gives continuous power for extended workshop sessions without battery concerns. A cordless model removes the cable for on-site work or moving between benches, running on your existing battery platform if you already have one.
Not always. Biscuit joints add strong alignment and some strength to a glue joint, but for high-stress structural joints, dowels, screws or other mechanical fixings may still be needed alongside or instead of biscuits, depending on the application.
