Silverline Joiners Jointing Wood Dowel Biscuits No 10 Pack of 200
Barcode: 5055058175144
MPN: 457012
Overview:
The Silverline No.10 Biscuit Joiners 457012 are designed for quick, accurate and high-strength joints in woodworking and cabinet assembly. Used with a cordless or electric biscuit jointer, these No.10 biscuits help align parts during glue-up while providing a generous bonding area for a stronger joint than glue alone. They’re ideal for softwood, hardwood, plywood and many composition boards, making them a reliable choice for everyday joinery tasks. Made from compressed laminated hardwood, the biscuits expand when they come into contact with woodworking adhesive—tightening within the slot and helping create a secure, long-lasting connection. Supplied in a pack of 200 for repeat work in the workshop or on site.

Silverline No.10 Biscuit Joiners – Key FAQs
What are No.10 biscuit joiners used for?
No.10 biscuits are commonly used for general cabinetry and woodworking joints, helping align panels and frames while creating a strong glued connection.
Are biscuits quicker than dowels?
In many jobs, yes. Biscuit slots are fast to cut and make alignment straightforward, which can speed up assembly compared with drilling multiple dowel holes.
Why do the biscuits expand when glued?
The compressed laminated hardwood absorbs moisture from the adhesive and swells slightly, tightening the fit inside the slot for a more secure joint.
Can I use these biscuits in plywood and composite boards?
Yes. No.10 biscuits are suitable for plywood and many board materials, making them ideal for cabinet making and sheet material joinery.
Do biscuits help keep assemblies square?
Yes. A key advantage is that you can clamp from the side during glue-up to pull the joint square, helping panels and frames align neatly.
How many biscuits should I use along an edge?
It depends on joint length and load. As a guide, space biscuits evenly along the joint—using more biscuits improves alignment and can increase overall strength on longer edges.
