Formax FD 8400HS-1 High Security Office Shredder

Formax FD 8400HS-1 High Security Office Shredders offer P-7 security with commercial-grade components in a sleek, practical design. An easy-to-use LED control panel puts the power right at your fingertips.

The FD 8400HS-1 shreds up to 7 sheets at once, up to 23 feet per minute, with a shred size of 1/32" x 3/16".

This shredder has been evaluated by the NSA and meets NSA/CSS requirements for P-7 high-security cross-cut shredders.

The EvenFlow™ Automatic Oiling System is standard on the FD 8400HS-1, and periodically lubricates the cutting blades based on motor run time, keeping the shredder in peak operating condition. The ECO mode saves energy by automatically switching into standby mode after 5 minutes of inactivity.
