Paper shredder oil comes in convenient packaging
Paper shredder oil sheets come in packs with as few as 12 and 24 pieces and are easy to use. The liquid oil comes in containers that hold various quantities such as 1 pint and 12 ounces for small-scale uses. Since it’s advisable to lubricate cross cut shredders after 30 minutes of shredding and strip cut shredders after an hour of working, larger offices can stock 1-gallon oil containers. These options can come in packs of four.
Some shredder oil lubricants are in maintenance kits that also include compressed air to blow dust away, wipes, air dusters, and straw attachments to help clean areas that are hard to reach in the shredders. Supplies such as shredder bags help ensure quick tidying after shredding is complete.
Paper shredder oil sheets apply lubrication neatly
Sheets make it easy to maintain shredders because you feed the lubricant paper to shred like any other document so that as it passes through the cutters it spreads oil. This helps minimize friction and keeps blades sharp for prolonged, efficient performance. Some shredder oil paper is made from recycled and biodegradable products and works with a wide selection of shredders. The design of these sheets ensures they apply oil evenly to all parts of the shredder and results in a quiet performance.
Shredder oil lubricants work with a variety of machines
Apply liquid lubricants directly to machines thanks to the long, thin nozzles on some options. Another way is to squirt oil on copy paper and then shred it. Some oils are specific to brands while others are effective for all shredders. Some shredder lubricants to choose from include Fellowes® paper shredder oil and other reputable brands such as:
- Swingline®
- HSM®
- Dahle®
- IDEAL
- Royal Sovereign®
Some of these not only lubricate but also help reduce dust retention. They may contain non-CFC ingredients to minimize environmental impact. Find other office electronics and shredder accessories at Quill.
