Imformation about Shredder Parts
The majority of shredders designed for the home will not come with any extra shredder parts with the exception of lubricating oil and waste bags. These of course will run out over time and can be found at most office supply stores throughout the country. Lubricating oil costs about $9 for a 16 oz bottle and waste bags can be found at $34 for 100 bags. Fellowes sell waste bags which have been specifically designed for all of their models as well as lubricating oil. If you have a personal shredder and it has come with a waste bin attached, it is important to be careful as the plastic can crack or break upon removal. You must take care of your shredders if you want them to last. Oil for the large industrial shredders is sold by the gallon with a four-pack costing approximately $125. Waste bags (40x40x68) can cost as much as $165 for 50. You can buy Fellowes oil and waste bags from the dealerships, retailers, or online. They also provide automatic oilers with some of their industrial sized shredders. Caster wheels can be replaced with ease, although you should always call out a serviceman, especially if the machine is still under warranty. If you would rather save money and fix it yourself, caster wheels can be found at hardware stores. Shredder accessories (for personal shredders) include bag bars, desk mounts, forms racks, paper shelves, shred boxes and support bars. Shred boxes and desk mounts are the most expensive of all accessories at approximately $200 each. Industrial shredder accessories are unsurprisingly more intricate and there are more available. If you find you have a problem with your industrial shredder, you should always take advantage of your warranty. There are a number of shredder repair services as well as places which sell shredder parts and scrap. The most popular and reliable include: Ameri-Shred, Columbia Steel Casting, Industrial Paper Shredders, Komar Industries, Marathon Equipment and Steel America.
Recycling has become increasingly popular throughout the US and because of this; there is a fast growing need for repairs and parts as more and more people own shredders. Shredder parts needed for industrial shredders often include: feed rolls, grates, kick out doors, roof covers, rotor caps and shredder hammers. The motors have a much more detailed list of shredder parts that may need replacing. The best thing to do with a motor problem is get a professional to look at it. Another popular accessory that can be bought for industrial strength shredders is a locked document container. This is especially important if you have highly confidential documents. The locked compartment will keep the papers secure until you come to shred them. These can cost up to $250 but hold a whopping 36 gallons of documents. Safety is very important when using a shredder, especially an industrial one. You must always be very careful if you use one on your own and watch out for the blades. Always make sure that the shredder has been disconnected from the mains supply before you disassemble it.
