Product FAQs
Questions About H-16CT Strip Cut Departmental Shredder
Product-specific answers based on this shredder’s description, specifications, and intended use case.
How secure is the output from the H-16CT?
The H-16CT is a departmental strip-cut paper shredder that reduces paper to roughly 1/4" particles — enough to stop casual reconstruction of everyday office paperwork, though it isn't rated to a specific numbered DIN security level.
What's the difference between the H-16CT's strip-cut and a cross-cut shredder?
Strip-cut shredders like the H-16CT slice paper into long strips — faster and lower-maintenance than a cross-cut machine, but the strips can potentially be pieced back together, so it's better suited to routine paper volume than documents that need a higher security level.
How much can the H-16CT handle per pass?
The H-16CT pulls 36-40 sheets per pass at 26 FPM, with a 45 Gal bin so it won't need emptying every few minutes. In practical terms, that makes the H-16CT a strong fit for shared-office document shredding where several people may use the same shredder throughout the day.
What day-to-day features does the H-16CT offer?
The H-16CT includes hands-free auto start/stop, so it runs without much day-to-day attention. Its floor-standing footprint is 38"h x 29"w x 20"d.
Who is the H-16CT designed for?
The H-16CT is sized for a busy department or shared office — enough capacity to keep up with several people's routine shredding without constant emptying, without stepping up to a dedicated mailroom-class machine.
