Conturo Edge Bander Auxiliary Roller is a dedicated Festool roller designed for the Conturo Edge Bander, so it works as an integrated part of the KA65 system during edge banding work. This auxiliary roller is identified by manufacturer part number 499480, which ties directly to Festool specifications for the KA65 edge bander. When used with the Conturo Edge Bander, the auxiliary roller applies focused pressure to the edge banding while it is being applied, helping maintain consistent contact between banding and substrate along the run. The roller is intended for thick edge banding, where extra pressure at the bond line supports more secure seating during application. It is also intended for brittle edge banding, guiding material through the process with controlled pressure that supports cleaner passes. In addition, it is specified for use on tight curves, where its added pressure point helps the banding track the curve as it is applied.
The auxiliary roller is specified for use with the Festool Conturo Edge Bander KA65, so its geometry and function are matched to this edge banding system. When engaged during operation, the roller contacts the edge banding as it is applied, creating an additional pressure point along the edge. This added pressure works with the Conturo feed and standard pressure system to press the banding against the work edge, supporting consistent adhesion along straight runs and curved sections. Because the roller is intended for thick and brittle edge banding as well as tight curves, it helps the operator handle varied edge profiles within the same machine workflow. By using this auxiliary roller on the KA65, the operator keeps pressure control at the tool, rather than relying only on hand pressure after the pass.
The auxiliary roller is described for use when applying thick edge banding with the Festool Conturo Edge Bander, so it directly supports jobs using heavier banding material on cabinetry or furniture components. During these passes, the roller concentrates pressure right at the edge where the thick banding meets the substrate, helping the material conform to the corner as it is applied. The same roller is also described for brittle edge banding, so it functions on more fragile banding materials that can respond poorly to uneven handling. In these situations, the dedicated roller contact lets the operator apply steady, localized pressure, helping the banding travel through the application path while limiting abrupt stress along the edge. The roller is also specified for tight curves, which means it is suited to curved fronts and other radiused work where the banding needs guided pressure to follow the contour during application.
The auxiliary roller provides an additional pressure point on the edge banding while being applied, so pressure is not concentrated in only one contact location on the KA65. That extra contact point spreads the working load along the banding as it moves, helping maintain uniform pressure from entry to exit of the application path. On thick edge banding, this added pressure point helps press the full thickness of the banding into the adhesive area while the Conturo Edge Bander advances, supporting a consistent edge profile along the piece. On brittle edge banding, the roller contact supports the banding in the application zone, which helps reduce sudden bending that could stress the material. On tight curves, the additional pressure point works like a guided bearing surface following the curve, helping the banding stay properly aligned to the radius throughout the pass. Because the roller is matched to the Festool Conturo Edge Bander, it fits directly into the KA65 workflow as a purpose-designed support for these demanding edge banding scenarios.
The auxiliary roller for thick edge banding adds an extra pressure point at the edge during application, helping the heavier banding seat against the workpiece along the full edge.
The auxiliary roller for brittle edge banding applies controlled, localized pressure as the banding is applied, helping guide fragile material through the process with steadier support at the edge.
The auxiliary roller on tight curves provides a focused pressure point along the radius, helping the edge banding follow the curved profile while it is being applied by the Conturo.
The Conturo Edge Bander Auxiliary Roller is designed for use with the Festool Conturo Edge Bander KA65, so it works within that dedicated edge banding system.
The auxiliary roller is identified by Festool manufacturer part number 499480, which ties it to the Conturo Edge Bander KA65 in product references.
The additional pressure point on the edge banding while being applied supports more uniform pressure along the edge, which helps alignment and bond consistency on straight and curved runs.
The Conturo Edge Bander Auxiliary Roller by Festool is specified for the KA65 and is intended for thick, brittle, and tight-curve edge banding work. Its additional pressure point acts directly on the banding as it is applied, supporting even contact between banding and substrate along demanding edges. When a job calls for thick material, brittle banding, or curved fronts on the Conturo Edge Bander, this auxiliary roller provides that targeted pressure within the same tool path. Choose this Festool 499480 auxiliary roller to keep pressure control integrated into the Conturo workflow for these specialized edge banding applications.
