The Lamello System
The original for efficient, intuitive and precise joints

The proven system for angle and mitre joints

The Lamello System is an extremely efficient, simple and precise joining system for wood and wood composites. It is based on a 4 mm groove and offers an enormous variety of joining solutions. The original wooden biscuit has been expanded with the insertion element, the clamping element and the transparent plastic element for mineral materials.

The detachable Clamex S-20 and Clamex S-18 connectors complement the system and enable joints to be assembled and disassembled several times. The 4 mm groove for the Lamello System connectors can be milled with the Lamello Classic X, Top 21 and Zeta P2 biscuit joiners.

The original for efficient, intuitive and precise joints

It's as simple as it is brilliant: the Lamello system wooden biscuit, which has been used to join millions of wooden components since its invention in 1955. The oval wooden panels are still produced from start to finish at the company headquarters in Bubendorf. It is only through many years of practical knowledge and intensive development work together with our customers that we have been able to constantly come up with new solutions, and in so doing decisively shape the market for wood joining technology and woodworking to this day.

This includes the original wooden biscuit, which is available in four sizes.

Perfect fit

The precision of the joining elements and of the 4 mm groove lead to a perfect fit

Round edges

Convenient and easy insertion into the groove

Embossed glue surface

Raised guide bars and embossed glueing surfaces for optimum glue distribution and low resistance during assembly

Versatile

The minimal element depth allows for mitres of 22.5 – 180 degrees as well as surface and corner joints and divisions

Lateral tolerance

No show-through of the connector in thin, white solid surface materials

C10 and C20 plastic biscuits are the proven joining solution for mineral composite materials such as Corian, Varicor. The white transparent plastic ensures that the connectors do not show through thin materials. The specific adhesive for composites can be used for the joints as well as for the biscuits.

Since the C10 and C20 do not swell, these biscuits are also suitable for outdoor or wet areas. The sizes 10/20 match the sizes of the original wood biscuit.

Connects and tensions the joint when hammered into the 4 mm groove

E20 is a self-clamping element and can be used with any Lamello biscuit joiner. The E20 is driven into the 4 mm groove using a hammer. During insertion, the curved ridges on each side of the connector hold in the groove and clamp the workpieces together.

E20 serves as a perfect glueing aid in the workshop or on site. E20-L is suitable for surface joints such as picture frames, plinth or panel extensions. E20-H is used in the edge and serves as a plinth connector.

Features E20

Connects and clamps

Connects and tightens when hammered into the workpiece due to the shape of the lateral ridges
